Nord Stage EX 88 vs. Roland RD700NX vs. Yamaha CP5
by: Alstom

Clavia Nord is more like a synthesizer with much higher quality effects, an its well suite for use on stage.

If you use sounds like the Hammond, Wurlitzer and other organ sounds, then it is definitely the Nord EX.

But if you are going to use more of bread butter sounds like the piano and strings, go for the Roland, or even the Yamaha. These two have a far better keyboard touch as well compared to the Nord.

Nord Stage EX 88 vs. Roland RD700NX vs. Yamaha CP5
by: JRD

I don't own the Clavia Nord but have seen and heard enough of them. If you are going to use a lot of organ sounds, then you need to use the Nord EX. They have the best Organ, electric pianos and Synth sounds.

Piano sounds are good, but they do not have lot of variations. Strings and other orchestral instruments are non-existent.

For pop and rock music, Nord is great but for a jazz type of gig, Roland or the Yamaha will suit better.

The Roland RD-700NX piano is heavy
by: Brad

Do check the Roland RD-700NX keyboard for its action. Not only is it too heavy the weight of the board itself is huge.

Some players may want to avoid it for its weight, if you intend to gig a lot.

Just a note: I own the Gator GK88 case which will fit either of these pianos.

Roland RD-700NX Piano
by: Danny

Honestly, all these boards are good. You need to figure out the settings which will give you the best sounds on-stage. You should not be afraid to experiment with the various piano settings.

As far as the keyboard touch is concerned, none would exactly match the keys on an acoustic piano. Any acoustic grand you take will have much heavier keys compared to a digital piano, and the difference between the heavier keys in the bass and the lighter keys on the higher octaves is also greater on acoustic pianos.

I own a Roland RD-700NX Piano and am quite happy with it.

Yamaha CP5 and the Roland RD-700NX Piano
by: Stomp

I've played the Yamaha CP5 live and I like it. My experiences says that Yamaha sounds much better in live settings, whereas for some strange reasons the Roland RD-700NX sounds much better only at home, when you hear it through headphones.

Though it is a personal choice, Roland has been experiencing key wear issues with their Ivory Feel keys. I am sure it could be a minor thing and Roland may be trying to fix it, I will go with the Yamaha CP5.
