A Clavinet D6 has two separate pick-ups, one on the “neck” and one on the “bridge”. By selecting either
one pick-up or both in different combinations you can alter the character of the sound quite drastically.
On the Mega Clavinet sound, the
A
MOUNT
knob works as the pick-up selector according to the figure

If you want to process your sound using external effects,
it can be convenient to route Organ and Piano sounds
to separate outputs of the Nord Electro 2.
Note that the
Output routing is not saved, so you will have to recon-
figure after power off.
1. Hold down
S
HIFT
and press the
P
ROGRAM
8
but-
ton three times. The
D
ISPLAY
reads ‘H.0’ where ‘H’
stands for ‘
H
ard pan’ and ‘0’ that both Organ and
Piano sounds are routed to
L
EFT
O
UT
and
R
IGHT
O
UT
without separation.
2. Select ‘separate outputs’ by pressing the
U
P
N
AVI
-
GATOR
button so the
D
ISPLAY
reads ‘H.1’. ‘H.1’
means that Organ sounds will be output only
through the
L
EFT
O
UT
and Piano sounds only
through the
R
IGHT
O
UT
.
Note that any stereo effect you apply to a sound internally will be in
mono in ‘H.1’ mode.
3. Press any button (except for the
S
HIFT
, S
TORE
or
U
P
/D
OWN
buttons) to exit.
By turning the
A
MOUNT
knob you select one of the four Clavi-
net D6 pick-up configurations. The pick-up configuration
number is briefly shown in the
D
ISPLAY
as you turn the
A
MOUNT
knob.
The configurations are these:
C.b:
Only the "bridge" pick-up; a bright sound.
C.A:
Only the "neck" pick-up; a warm, less bright sound.
d.A:
Both pick-ups on but 180 degrees out of phase; the funda-
mental is almost cancelled and the sound becomes pretty thin
d.b:
Both pick-ups on and in phase; a very full sound
