Threshold
If you have pads or other pieces in your kit
that are mounted on the same hardware,
you can use the Input Threshold (Inp Thres)
parameter to eliminate any unwanted, ac-
cidental triggers .
1
Hold Shift and press the Inp Thres but-
ton .
2
Select the Nord Drum 2 Channel that is
responding to the unwanted trigger .
3
Strike the pad or drum that causes the
unwanted triggers and raise the Inp
Thres value with the Dial until the Nord
Drum 2 channel stops triggering .
4
Strike the pad that should properly trig-
ger the Nord Drum 2 to verify that the
new setting has not changed the desired
response .
Nord Pad - Inp Sens &
Threshold
When a Nord Pad is connected to the Nord
Drum 2, the Inp Sens and Thres parameters
are not individually adjusted for each channel/
pad, only one Inp Sens and one Thres setting
will be used .
If you add a kick drum pad to the CH1 Trig
Input, this channel can however be adjusted
separately .
MIDI Channel
If you wish to control the Nord Drum 2 with a
MIDI unit, the MIDI channel and the notes that
this unit transmits must be matched to the
MIDI channel of the Nord Drum 2 . The default
Global MIDI Channel is channel 10 .
1
Connect a MIDI pad or other MIDI
controller to the MIDI Input on the Nord
Drum 2 .
2
Hold Shift and press the MIDI button
repeatedly to access the “
L
” (Global)
setting .
M
The LED above the MIDI button will flash
to indicate that your are editing System
parameters.
3
Turn the Dial to select the MIDI channel
you wish the Nord Drum 2 to use .
MIDI Note assignment
When the Nord Drum 2 is shipped from the
factory, channels 1 to 6 are assigned to MIDI
note numbers: 60, 62, 64, 65, 67 and 69 .
Here is how to change this:
1
Connect a MIDI pad or other MIDI
controller to the MIDI Input on the Nord
Drum 2 .
2
Hold Shift and press the MIDI button
repeatedly until you see a “
n
” followed
by a number in the display .
3
Press the Channel Select buttons on
the Nord Drum 2 to select one of the
channels .
4
Turn the Dial to set the desired MIDI
Note Number for that channel .
5
Repeat steps 3 and 4 to assign the other
channels to the MIDI note numbers that
the MIDI unit transmits .
6
Press the Program button to exit .
