4. MIdI
the Nord Electro 5 is designed to be as flexible as possible in regards to how it can be used together with external controllers, sequencers and
sound modules. this section illustrates the most common setups for using the MIdI functionality of the Nord Electro 5 together with other equip-
ment. Each scenario requires that appropriate settings are made in the MIdI Menu and/or the KB split section. the tables will show you what
parameters needs to be adjusted in each case. also, the Nord Electro 5 can both send and receive an extensive set of MIdI controller messages.
For a detailed list of these, see page 21.

as coNtrollEr
the Nord Electro 5 can be used as a controller keyboard, in cases where you want to play the
sounds of an external sound module or synthesizer. local control Mode can be set to on or off
depending on if you want to use the Nord Electro 5 as part of a layered sound or not.

sPlIt ModE
With this setup, the upper part of the keyboard can be used to send MIdI to an external sound
module or synthesizer. Useful for cases where you want to play one of the Nord Electro 5 sound
engines in the left hand, but the sound of a different unit in your right. the Part Upper sound engine
can either be turned off entirely, or be set to a sound that you want layered with the sound of the
external unit.
MIdI messages for sustain and control pedal are only sent if their respective functions are activated
for Part Upper. also, transpose and octave shift settings will affect the outgoing MIdI stream, unlike
with MIdI sent on the global channel.
Note that the Nord Electro 5 will not send any MIdI generated above the split point on the global
channel in this scenario. this is to avoid the external unit receiving double Note on or other MIdI
messages. to enable this setup, channel Upper split in the MIdI menu needs to be set to a discrete
MIdI channel.
