I like it quite a bit but the tuning has gotten wonky, and very sensitive to cold. I've got low confidence it will be working in ten years time whereas my ~18 year-old Nord 3 is a rock.


The Monologue is $300 new.

I don't think it's fair to compare it to the Nord.


This is true!


The Nord is also all-digital, so it should never have tuning problems.


I've considered making digital audio hardware that "ages' like the analog stuff. Goes out of tune over time, has some capacitors that you need to replace every 10 years, a manual with a trim pot calibration process, etc.
