Subject:Re: XK3 to Nord?
I've kind of done the opposite, going from Nord to Xk3 in a different context. Actually it was Nord rack to XM-2. I liked the sound & some of the features of the Hammond better. Of course the Nord would win out as far as internal sim goes, but I'm using the Leslie 2101 so that doesn't apply to my situation. Plus it has the piano sounds, but with the weird velocity crossovers on the Nord it made it the greatest sounding Rhodes I could never use. With the supposedly new sound engine of the C1 that might tip the balance back into Nord's favor, but that would negate your preference for lighter. If you're not in a hurry it might pay you to wait awhile until the much-discussed KeyBsolo is available in the states.
