Nord Piano 2 HP sound system help!!

Post by octaveyeah »

I recently acquired a nord piano 2 HP (73 keys) and I have some questions, is anyone is able to answer them then I will be so grateful!!

I have a small bass amp at home, could I play it through this?
I play gigs at small bars/ clubs and I sing at the same time, can I run the piano through a PA at a venue?
Do I need an amp to be able to play it at a venue?
If so, what amps can people recommend?

Ideally I would love to be able to play it at the same time as my vocal through a PA because I don't have an amp, and I have to get the underground to gigs!

Thankyou for your patience in answering a Nord rookie's questions in advance!!

You "can" play through the bass amp, but it won't sound as good. You will be missing the high frequencies.
Yes you can play through the PA. You might want to have a small amp so you can hear yourself and use for example the effects "send" to the PA. Sometimes the PA speakers are positioned in such a way that you won't hear yourself clearly. But maybe the venue can set a monitor so you can hear yourself singing and playing and you do not need to carry any amps.

For home you could also use stereo speakers: a classic home stereo or studio monitors.
