NAMM 2025: Nord Piano 6, the most flexible model yet

There’s no disputing Nord makes some of the best digital pianos on the market. The iconic red housing, the impressive library of sounds and effects, features, and functions all make them a top brand for professionals and amateurs alike. Now they’re introducing the Nord Piano 6.

It builds upon previous iterations with advanced layering. Users can combine independent piano and sample-based synth layers, each with their own LED fader for easier balance adjustment.

You don’t normally find a synth engine like this outside of an actual synthesizer, so the Nord Piano 6 appeals to all types of keys players. Tru-Vibrato gives you real-time control over pitch fluctuations, and a round robin setting lets you create sequences that don’t get dull and repetitive.

Both mono and legato modes have Glide as well as controls over the ADSR (attack, decay, sustain, release) and Dynamic controls.

Each engine be split across the keybed and arranged to user preference. All keys in both the 88-key and 73-key models have triple sensor, hammer-action keys and offer the type of nuance of expression you’d expect from Nord.

A redesigned interface offers more tactile control over effects parameters like EQ, delay, reverb, and modulation. Nord added some new effects too like a spring reverb and “spin”, new types of delays and even amplifiers! Each effect can be applied to any layer, but the reverb is still global.

It’s got a versatile, useful I/O topology and takes peripherals like sustain pedals (included new). Just like every other piano in the Nord lineup, all sounds in the library are created from carefully around authentic sampled instruments.

The piano section in the Nord Piano 6 leads the charge with grands, uprights, and electric pianos from Nord’s respected Piano Library. Users can tailor them further with compression, unison, as well as Soft, Mid, Bright, and Dyno filters.
