Nord Triple Pedal 2 (TP2) — Triple Pedal with Continuous Sensors
Nord's premium triple pedal, fitted with continuous sensors for fine dynamic control. Half damping, Pedal Noise and assignable functions; it connects to the 5-pin DIN input of the Nord Piano 6, Grand 2 and Stage 4.
On an acoustic piano, the pedal is never just fully down or fully up: everything happens in between. The Nord Triple Pedal 2 (TP2) is a triple pedal with continuous sensors, designed by Nord for its Piano 6, Grand 2 and Stage 4. Each pedal reads its position continuously, which makes half damping faithful and also lets you give it other jobs.
Highlights
- Continuous sensors: Nord specifies them for optimal dynamic control.
- Half damping and Pedal Noise: both of Nord's piano features are supported.
- Assignable functions: Layer Scene II, Pump, Tap Tempo, Synth Vibrato, program up or down, rotor speed.
- 5-pin DIN connector: the dedicated Triple Pedal input of compatible instruments.
- Anti-slip mat: a rubber mat is supplied.

Before you buy: check your instrument
Nord lists the TP2 for three instruments only: the Nord Piano 6 and the Nord Grand 2, which already ship with it in the box, and the Nord Stage 4, which takes it on its 5-pin DIN input. It therefore does not replace a jack-type sustain pedal. For other Nord Stage and Nord Piano models, and for the Nord Electro 7, Nord offers the first-generation Triple Pedal (TP1) instead. Buying the TP2 separately mostly makes sense for a Stage 4, or to replace the one that came with a Piano 6 or a Grand 2.
