of the performance, the dot to the right in the Display will be lit to
indicate this .
The content of the virtual clipboard will remain until you copy another
setting or parameter, or turn off the Nord Lead 4 . This makes it pos-
sible to paste the same data to several destinations .

MIDI
The Nord Lead 4 default MIDI settings is to send and receive on Global
MIDI Channel 1, using the USB MIDI interface . What you play on the
keyboard will be transmitted as MIDI Notes on MIDI Channel 1, and
incoming MIDI on channel 1 will play the current Program or an entire
Performance on the Nord Lead 4 .
The Slot that is in focus will be transmitting (and receiving) any CC data
that occurs when you turn a knob or press a button on the panel .
All MIDI related settings are made in the MIDI Menu . Read more on the
MIDI capabilities of the Nord Lead 4 on page 46 .
Multitimbrality
The Nord Lead 4 can be used as four independent synthesizers
controlled by MIDI, thanks to the four Slots . This is achieved by setting
individual MIDI Channels for the four Slots, in the MIDI Menu .
