Clavia Nord C2D (2012-)

Dual-manual combo organ from Clavia Nord C Series — known for button drawbars instead of sliders: a row of buttons lights up LEDs to show the current drawbar setting, in place of the nine physical sliders a real B-3 uses.^[raw/articles/wikipedia-clonewheel-organ.md]

Position in the Nord family

  • Nord Electro series (2001-) — stage keyboard with organ section.
  • Nord Stage series (2005-) — adds piano and synth sections.
  • Nord C1 / C2 / C2D (2007-) — the dedicated combo-organ line.
  • Nord Pedal Key 27 — MIDI pedalboard companion.^[raw/articles/wikipedia-clonewheel-organ.md]

The button-drawbar approach keeps the visual footprint of the organ compact, useful for stage players who want a real B-3 patch UI without giving up keyboard real estate.
