3. GETTING STARTED
SELECTING PROGRAMS
Programs are single sounds that are stored in the internal memory of Nord Electro 2. The Program memory
in Nord Electro 2 consists of 6 Banks each holding 8 Programs for a total of 48 Programs. All Programs
can be edited and replaced at any time. To select a Program for playing/editing, do like this:
1. Select Bank (A-F) by pressing
the U
P/DOWN NAVIGATOR
buttons if you want to change
Bank.
2. Select Program by pressing
one of the eight P
ROGRAM
buttons 1 to 8.
OCTAVE SHIFT
The two O
CTAVE SHIFT
buttons to the bottom left on the front panel
can be used to transpose the notes two octaves up or down (if the se-
lected instrument supports this). A flashing O
CTAVE SHIFT LED in-
dicates +/- 2 octaves note shift.
Note: Due to the actual key range of the original Piano instru-
ments, some sounds cannot be octave shifted up and/or down. For organ sounds, the Octave
Shift will only generate notes that are within the 73-key note range of Nord Electro 2 73. This
means that using Octave Shift for Organ sounds in Nord Electro 2 73 won’t produce any sound
in the lowest or highest octave.

buttons

sponding LED will

Press the

or
