Stage 4 Compact (73) cases

[k_rami]

Hi,

Which case is suitable for the Stage 4 Compact (73 keys)?
Case without wheels (e.g. NORD SOFT CASE 73/61/LEAD/WAVE 2)?
Case with wheels (e.g. NORD SOFT CASE 73/76/88/GRAND)?

Thanks!

The Nord Website doesn't give any hints, but the retailers do. So, the model with backstraps (without wheels, inside 1130 x 330 x 110 mm) fits for the Compact, the one with wheels (inside 1090 x 340 x 120 mm) does as well. Consider the front pocket being quite different (I don't put any pedal inside but others do).

I only know the one with backstraps (tried it a few years ago), and what I didn't like was the zip not being padded - but you may want to try it anyway (I don't know of a better model still being available).

I prefer carrying the NS4 73 on my back - although it is heavy. After some research, I bought the Nord Electro HP bag. My NS 4 fits perfectly in it. The bag is well padded on the inside and it has a large front pocket, to bring your pedals with you.
I have been using it for 9 months now without any problems.

@Dijkhuizen are we talking 'NS4 Compact' or 'NS4 73' here? They are two different models, with different dimensions (the NS4 73 is wider and thicker than the Compact).

I got my Compact earlier this year, but I don't like the tiny front pocket on the Compact case. The Electro HP bag front pocket is much larger, so that would be a big plus, but the last thing I want is for my keys to move around inside the bag.
