Subject:Re: What is the best stage piano?
I find the Kurzweil PC3X piano ("Stage Piano" patch, #2) is really
nice...comparable to the Yamaha piano sample in the Nord Stage...but I can't warm
up to the KB3 organs that it has implemented. If orchestral or vintage
sounds are important to you, the PC3x is the absolute king. But nothing can
touch the Hammond/Leslie combinations, or the Clavinets and the ability to
modify either sound, on the Nord Stage. In a jazz context, the Nord is the
only piano that convinces me absolutely that I am playing a piano. That
being said, I absolutely love my PC3x as well.
One little tick about the Nord (both the 88 and the Compact)....when
I really get into it, and play with gusto percussively onto the upper end
of the keyboard, it seems to trigger the chorus effect button somehow...very
strange !! Anybody else experience this ??????
