Arturia has opted for a realistic electric piano console look, and it’s simply a thing of beauty. And there are enough built-in sounds to satisfy the pickiest of players. Overall, the Stage-73 V sounds amazing (be sure to check out the video below). Over 50 presets are included, which is more than enough to get started with.

You also get access to a variety of EP profiles, a dedicated effects pedalboard (four slots with 13 effects), amp simulator (Fender Twin or Leslie), room ambience, and even controls for velocity curve editor, model selection, hammer hardness, tuning, output selection, damper duration, damper noise, pickup distance, pickup alignment, pickup noise, noise gate, tine noise, dynamics, and tone bar resonance. This includes bass and treble EQ models, stereo vibrato with speed and intensity controls, and modelled preamp for the Suitcase amp, specifically for the Suitcase model. In addition to all the controls available on the original keyboard units, Stage-73 V gives you access to other adjustments you couldn’t make on the physical keyboards. And it claims to put all the signature sounds right at your fingertips.Īrturia painstakingly modeled the tines (metal tone rods), hammers, pickups, and circuits of the originals.

It’s been designed to give you authentic modeling of your favorite Stage and Suitcase sounds (73 and 74 models of the Stage model). Arturia’s Stage-73 V is a popular option for electric pianists.
