Epic Electric Piano
The Stage-73 gives you actual authentic modelling of both Stage and Suitcase versions of the most popular electric piano on the planet —completed with unparalleled control of virtual mechanics, a complement of effects pedals, and built-in classic amps.
The Stage-73 uses our award-winning modelling technology to faithfully reproduce the tine-based sound and playing experience of the most loved electric pianos of all time. Arturia modelled both the Clssic Suitcase Piano and Stage Piano— including separate 1973 and 1974 models of the Stage in order to capture the difference in their components. A total sonic and aesthetic fidelity to the originals. You can even easily pop the top and customize the various mechanical components to make your instrument unique. Classic amps and an array of effect pedals round out the virtual electric piano you’ve always dreamed of having.
A Sound that’s Always in Style
Whether you’re playing yesterday’s hits or making tomorrow’s, the sound of the Stage-73 is a true player in its own right.
The venerable sound of the Classic E-Piano simply refuses to go out of style. These instruments were used by a who’s who of keyboardists who pioneered mid-century jazz, funk, R&B and rock. With a tonal range spanning smooth bell-like qualities to an aggressive bark depending upon how hard they’re played, these seminal keyboards have been in continual use across just about every style imaginable right through to today.
The Stage-73 V brings you all the signature sounds that propelled the instruments and their players into the spotlight and onto the charts.
Just Like Playing the Real Thing
There’s nothing quite like playing a classic… except playing the Stage-73 V.
There have been a lot of attempts to emulate the Classic E-Piano. You already know that most software, and even hardware, based on samples falls well short of the mark. That’s what inspired us to instead apply Arturia's critically acclaimed modelled technology to the whole system—including the tines (metal tone rods), the hammers that strike them, the pickups that generate the electromagnetic current, and the circuits that amplify it all. The sum total is a totally authentic homage that stands on its own.
Stage-73 V isn’t just one instrument - it’s many. It encapsulates a range of piano models, from Stage to Suitcase, ‘73 or ‘74, Classic to Modern, putting a huge range of hearty sounds at your disposal - luscious vibrato and all.
Once you’ve played the Stage-73 V, you won’t settle for anything less.
Unprecedented Intimate Control
The Stage-73 V gives you access to the controls of the original instruments—plus many adjustments you’ve never been able to get your hands on before.
To capture that authentic Classic E-Piano magic, we had to dive deep. Stage-73 V2’s physical modelling sound engine offers an electric piano experience that’s so realistic, you’ll forget you’re playing a software instrument.
Whether you just want to rock the designer presets or get busy with mods of your own, the Stage-73 V has the flexibility to be just about any electric piano you want it to be.
Warmth, Crunch, and Colour
Stage-73 V is designed as a tailor-made Classic E-Piano toolkit. With a newly-integrated pedal rig, you can add emulated stompboxes to your chain, from red-hot distortion to glorious tape echo. Assemble your own fully-customizable keyboard rig.
Amp it Up
You’ve chosen your electric piano model. You’ve chosen your stompboxes. What better way to round it off than with a cranked amp? Choose from the sparkling valve response of the Twin Amp, or the lush stereo revolutions of the Rotary Speaker - complete with amp controls and custom room settings. Give your electric piano the rock ‘n’ roll edge it deserves.
Ahead of the Curve
Go beyond emulation; Stage-73 V is yours to customize. Open up the Advanced Panel, and you’ll find an array of enhancements that put you firmly in charge of every aspect of your sound:
- Choose your hammer hardness, from soft felt to sharp metallic strikes.
- Incorporate realistic ambient noise, from pickup hum to tine overtones.
- Draw your own velocity curve for a custom playing response from your keyboard.
- Tweak the pickup settings to drastically affect the instrument’s electric character.
- Easily adjust the dynamics and tone bar resonance and find your acoustic preference.
