LIVE ProgramS
The Nord Piano 5 has five easy-to-access Live programs.
These programs are special in that edits to them are
automatically stored
. When exiting a Live Program or
powering off the machine all edits are saved, without the
need for a manual Store operation. To select a Live Program, press
LIVE
MODE
and then any of the
1-5
buttons in the Program area.
a Live program can be stored to a location in the program banks using
the Store function. Conversely, a regular program can also be stored into
a Live program location.

If hanging notes are experienced when using the Nord Piano 5 in a
mIDI setup, or if all sound should be terminated for other reasons, press
PANIC

message, and reset incoming CC messages.

secondary
function which is accessed
by holding
SHIFT
and pressing the button or turning the dial.
Shift functions are always printed
below
the corresponding
control. For example, holding Shift and pressing the Program
2 button will open up the Sound menu.
The Shift button is
also used to
EXIT
menus, or for cancelling Store operations.

changing it – by pressing down Shift and turning the knob
associated with the parameter.
