(In the above photograph, the white pistons are standard, the yellow ones are additional ones fitted at the customer's request)

The US3 three-keyboard stack is a higher spec version of the MS3.  Because it is based on the Behringer UMX610, it has the advantage over the MS3 of neater "diving board" style white keys. This allows the keyboards to be nested closer together, in accordance with normal organ building practice, reducing the stretch when playing on the top keyboard. There is currently less difference in touch between the two types of stack than there was in the past. In any case, touch is a highly subjective matter, so if in doubt, the best policy is to try both types of keyboard before deciding. The other main advantages of the US3 over the MS3 are that the pistons are better quality and larger, and the cheeks are wider and profiled. The US3 is also available without cheeks, please contact us for price.

The stack plugs directly into the USB ports of your computer, or a powered USB hub. Use the stack on its own, or combined with a MIDI pedalboard. Can be placed on a table, desk or other convenient surface, or built into an existing console.

The stack is guaranteed for one year.  See Our Selling Policy for the terms of our guarantee.

Pistons
The 24  pistons can be configured to do almost anything in Hauptwerk. Most obviously they can be used as combination pistons, but they can also carry out menu commands. Particularly useful ones are to advance the registration sequencer, or to start and stop the built-in recording. The pistons are not numbered, but they are grouped into fours for ease of identification.

 MIDI output channel
MIDI output is on channel 1 for all keyboards and pistons.
