I've narrowed down which piano I would like to use on stage to either the Yamaha CP4 or the Nord piano 2.
I've been leaning towards the CP4 based on what I think is a wonderful action - to me the Nord is slightly plasticky in comparison. However, the sound of the acoustic and electric pianos is obviously important. When I tried both pianos in a music shop, the playback system wasn't great, I'm probably going back with a pair of decent headphones to try again but here's the thing, I know the Yamaha is a modelled sound and the Nord is samples and has the capacity to load sounds from the Nord website. I know the Nord is supposed to have got the piano resonance sorted out and makes use of the triple pedal and people describe it as having a 'vibe' but also the Yahama CX5 model has had great feedback from reviewers, as has the Rhodes sounds.
If you were choosing between these, which would you go for and why - it may help my final decision to take opinions in with me for my last shootout!
