the sound from headphones (akg 701 Reference - Directly connected to the nord 4 or amplified for better fit with impedance) is better when I listen to YouTube demo of nord 4 the pianos are incredibly better than what I manage to get from my set up Compared to a music track my nord 4 sounds like a badly compressed low quality mp3

but if I play some hi quality tracks from tidal using a Mac through the scarlett the sound is 10x better, richer, warmer, detailed, not tinny. the speakers seem too close to glass walls and the sub to the wall but not crazily close it’s a big living room In a modern building with most walls made of glass for 75% of heigh I tried dozens of changes by equalizing the speakers (also with the pink noise app from krk) and the nord piano (onboard equalizer) to no success. I knew the keybed of the nord is not a winner but I believed the sounds of pianos were fantastic. I m just playing simple triads or arpeggios. The sound is thin, too bright, not rich, lacks body and warmth regardless of the selected grand piano (White, imperial, silver, Italian etc). The nord sends to focusrite -> xlr balanced to sub with 80khz crossover cut -> Rokit 8įocusrite Scarlett is connected at the same time to a Mac via usb-c I Would please really need some guidance to try and fix the quality of sound - tinny, thin, not warm at all coming from : I m a piano beginner (7 months) and read tons of threads before posting this.
