Is The Nord Stage 4 Still Worth It In 2025? [See description]

Is the Nord Stage 4 still a great choice for worship musicians in 2025?
In short—yes, absolutely. Based on my experience, it continues to be one of the best options available. Here are three key reasons why the Nord Stage 4 remains such a strong keyboard for worship settings.

1️⃣ Sound That Inspires
The Nord Stage 4 delivers stunning piano tones—from warm uprights to rich concert grands—making it perfect for worship. It also features a powerful synth engine and a versatile organ section, giving you a wide range of sounds to shape your set. With an ever-expanding sound library and easy updates via Nord Sound Manager, it’s always ready for whatever your service requires.

2️⃣ Hands-On Control
No deep menu diving here. Nord’s knob-per-function design makes it easy to tweak sounds, layer patches, and adjust effects on the fly—ideal for live worship settings.

3️⃣ Built Like a Tank
With a reputation for rock-solid reliability, the Nord Stage 4 can handle the wear and tear of weekly services without missing a beat.

Having used Nord keyboards for many years and the Nord Stage 4 since the release, I can understand why so many worship musicians rely on them. The sound quality, simple controls, and reliability make them a solid choice for a church setting. I love expressive high-quality piano sounds and the ability to make quick adjustments during a service have always been a great help. Of course, every musician has their own preferences, but I can highly recommend the Nord Stage 4 based on my experience.

In this video I’m using the patch called Felt and Strings from my Nord Stage 4: Worship Strings Collection. I really like the soft, intimate sound of the felt upright and combining that with the cinematic strings just creates such a nice atmospheric sound.
