Nord Triple Pedal with dynamic pedal noise and advanced string resonance
The included Nord Triple Pedal includes soft and sostenuto pedals in addition to a unique dynamic sustain pedal. It also enables Nord's pedal noise feature that dynamically simulates the mechanical sounds of lifting and releasing the damper mechanism. Meanwhile, Nord's unique string resonance accurately reproduces the complex interplay of piano strings and also adds the rich ambience of a real piano when playing with the pedal down.
