The Operating System as well as all factory Programs of Nord Electro are stored in Flash memory. A Flash
memory is a type of “memory resistant” RAM which means it keeps the data also when the power is shut
off. Another big advantage is that you can replace data in the Flash memory at any time. This means that
you will be able to download OS upgrades and Programs to your Nord Electro from a computer or se-
quencer without needing to replace or add any new hardware. Nord Electro also features a USB port for
quick and easy download of new Piano instrument samples in the future.
The internal sound memory of Nord Electro consists of 6 Banks (A-F) holding 8 Programs each for a
total of 48 Programs.

All factory Programs of Nord Electro can be replaced. To make sure you don’t accidentally overwrite Pro-
grams you want to keep, it’s a good idea to back up your sounds regularly on a computer or on a hardware
sequencer that can record and play back MIDI Sysex. data. For information on how to back up Programs
please refer to
.
