Piano jazz Ns3 88

Which piano do you use to do jazz? ... Mono or stereo ... You also tell me how to equalize the sound? I know that by pressing the monitor button you can see the exact values ​​of your equalization .... Thanks .. I can not find a stamp that makes me happy ... The studio grand 2 is my favorite but I do not have the same feeling I had on the north classic stage ... Help me

Many Jazz players I know have some love for the Grand Lady. The Amber (upright) is also a good choice. If you like the studio Grand 2, the Royal 3D is also a must try.
Equalization / mono or stereo choices mostly depends on your band set up and sound system.

By the way, I recently discover that mono from a DI summed stereo is better than the mono keyboard output option.

It all depends on your speaker/amp setup, room size, and size of group (combo, big band, solo). Amber is my personal favorite for upright. Enjoy experimenting and trying out different ones. Nords make this process fun.

To add some confusion: For me the opposite is true: I prefer using only the right output channel and do NOT use "mono mode" button. Different folks, different strokes... :-)
