PERCUSSION
the harmonic percussion feature is available in B3 mode. When switched on, an attack transient
is added to the organ tone giving it a more percussive character. the controls within this section
let you choose between
second or third harmonics, slow or fast decay and soft or hard percus-
sion levels.
B3+BASS
one of the features new to the Nord Electro series is the
B3+BASS
mode, which will give you the
traditional B3 Bass tone wheels - 16’ and 8’ - in the left hand and a full B3 in the right. to enable
this feature, select organ for both parts and enable KB split. In non-split mode the B3+Bass
setting will behave as a normal B3.
M The SOUND menu is home to some additional settings, relevant to the various features of
the B3 model. See “Sound” on page 16 for details.
PIPE
another new addition is the
PIPE
organ model which uses physical modelling to produce a versa-
tile and carefully tuned principal pipe section. Its pipe lengths match those of the B3 tone wheel
markings, also ranging from
16’ to 1’.
vX
the tonal controls for the
VX
transistor organ model range from 16’ to IV , including the funda-
mental and its octaves, as well as various combinations of harmonics. additionally, there is a
drawbar for adjusting the sound character between a softer and a brighter (less filtered) mode
represented by the sine and sawtooth waveforms.
the vX organ has three vibrato modes to choose from - v1-v3 - each increasing its rate and inten-
sity.
FarF
the
FARF
model is based on another easy-to-recognize transistor organ and has its drawbars
labeled after the original Bass 16 – 2 2/3 tabs. In Farf mode the drawbars are configured as on/
off switches in order to match the original design.
the vibrato/chorus options for the Farf model consist of four different settings, v1-v2 and c2-
c3. In this case all positions represent variations on the original vibrato model.
PIaNo
the Piano engine has a
six-part type selector
, each type containing a range of individual pianos
and keyboard instruments, accessible with the selector below the numeric MODEL display. the
Program area display will always show you the name of the currently loaded Piano sound.
From www.nordkeyboards.com you can download any number of piano sounds you like - in ad-
dition to the ones that come pre-installed. Nord Piano library sounds come in four different sizes,
letting you choose which range of features you want for each piano sound (see table below). the
internal memory of the Nord Electro 5 can hold up to 1 GB worth of piano sounds.
M Refer to the Nord Sound Manager section for details on downloading and transferring
sounds.
loNG rElEasE
the first option of the ACOUSTICS section is LONG RELEASE , which adds a slightly longer release
to acoustic and electric pianos. this can for instance be useful for acheiving a more legato char-
acter in your playing.
