If you are controlling the Nord Electro from an external MIDI keyboard, the Nord Electro must be set
to receive on the same MIDI channel that the external keyboard transmits on. Nord Electro is monotim-
bral (or bitimbral when using the Organ section.See
“Using an additional “Lower Manual” MIDI key-
) which means it can only transmit and receive on one MIDI channel at a time.
1. Set the MIDI keyboard to transmit and receive on MIDI Channel 1. (This is the default setting
when Nord Electro is shipped from factory).
2. Press the
S
HIFT
+
P
ROGRAM

(MIDI CH) but-

MIDI channel.
3. Scroll with the

buttons to
select MIDI Channel 1 (if it isn’t already selected).
4. Press the
S
HIFT
button to exit.
