Actually, how to change a programmed sound can be described in one
sentence: “tweak the knobs and press the buttons”. It
is
as simple as
that! Don’t be afraid to edit and overwrite the factory Programs. If
you want to restore any of the original factory programs later, you can
fetch them at http://www.clavia.se and download to your Nord Elec-
tro as MIDI Sysex files. To indicate that a Program has been edited
(changed from the stored version), a dot is shown to the right of the Program number in the
D
ISPLAY
:.

All
K
NOBS
on the Nord Electro are of potentiometer type. This means that
when you begin to edit a Program the values of the parameters can be totally dif-
ferent from the
K
NOBS
physical positions. As soon as you begin turning a
K
NOB
, the parameter value will ‘snap’ to the
K
NOB
’
S
physical position. This
could generate drastic changes to the sound but that’s only normal.

The
D
RAWBAR
buttons are special in the way that they auto-increment/decrement the corresponding pa-
rameter when held. I.e. if you hold a
D
RAWBAR
button the corresponding drawbar parameter will con-
tinue to increment or decrement (within its range) until you release the button.

No matter what Program you’re editing, you could always select a
different instrument type at any time. There are two main instru-
ment sections in Nord Electro: the Organ section and the Piano sec-
tion. You switch between these sections by pressing the
I
NSTRUMENT
S
ELECT
button located between the Organ and Piano
sections. When you have selected an instrument section the other sec-
tion, with its sub groups, is automatically disabled (all its LEDs go
blank). However, all settings of the respective groups are memorized
so when you switch back, all parameter values of the instrument
group are automatically recalled. The Effects section will always remain unaffected when you switch in-
strument group.
