Subject:Re: Lack of Drawbars - Nord C1

That would be great but it seems like it would be quite tricky to
design so that it would be sturdy. You'd basically have this thing
sticking out of the back that would need good support, possibly using
the music stand supports or something similar. So they'd have to
manufacture this very custom-designed mechanical drawbar thing that
doesn't seem that inline with the way Clavia does things. Then they'd
have to totally redesign the front panel and put all buttons and knobs
off to the side so that the drawbar add-on doesn't obstruct anything.

I wouldn't be surprised if they've tossed the idea around and rejected
it because of all the complications. One of the big things that makes
the C1 such a portable dual-manual organ is that it doesn't have
drawbars adding several inches of depth to the instrument. Some kind
of snap-on solution would be great but probably has too many issues
and is not cost-effective for them.
