Always used stereo, though my current monitor amp is mono, which gets a sum of both. Either way the FOH gets left and right panned about 75% in either direction.

Stereo for monitoring via 2x K10. If FOH is mono I send a summed mix.

HOW do you send a summed mix? If you are running stereo stage monitors, how do you get a mono signal to the FOH?

Hello everyone
I use a small mixer to get both ch1 and ch2 from my NS2, each in a separate channel in the mixer, I pan both to L side and send it out from the main out L to the main mixer.
It makes the sound better instead of only ch1 or putting the NS2 in mono mode.
It's like a full sound now.
But, I was thinking if I use a Y cable would I get the same result or will it burn something inside NS2 because it will make the connector touch it other.
Has anyone tried it or maybe tell me if will be alright with no damage inside?
thanks

No just a Y cable, see this:

If I get a mixer with an aux out and use the main outs R & L to go to my stage monitors, but send the aux out as a sum of the two - will that work?

I like to play in 360.

mono.
The player himself is the only one hearing piano stereo because you are direct in front of the upright or the grand. For all other people the stereo base is to narrow. They can only here "mono". So the natural hearing experience for a listener is the mono piano sound. Or the "mono" B3 sound of a single Leslie. There is no panning of keys to left or right on a church organ, an original Hammond or classic synthesizers. And I think even not on an (old) Rhodes.

I use the Nord Electro split mode to have mono outputs. But does anyone knows if this mode automatically does the function behind the "mono" button? Or should that be combined?

Of course, at home I'm using stereo with ear-phones and with the monitor speakers. But they are standing on the left and right side of the note stand, direct in front of me. Just as the sound board of an upright piano.

Maybe you have not been to a concert played in stereo? What about ping pong delay, stereo tremolo, chorus?

Not to mention Nord Lead outputs panned L & R.
