A Performance is a complete setup (combination) of up to four Patches - one in each Slot. The Nord
Modular G2 has 1024 (8 x 128) memory locations for Performances. A Performance contains informa-
tion about which Slots should be active, layered and also any Keyboard Split settings and Master Clock
settings. A Performance also contains information about a number of other settings. Later in this chapter
follows a detailed list of what settings are saved in a Performance.

A Performance in the Nord Modular G2 system doesn’t necessarily have to be just four layered/split
Patches in combination. Thanks to the internal audio Bus functionality in the G2 system, it’s possible to
have, for example, the audio output signals of three Patches in three Slots routed to a “global” Effects
Patch in the fourth Slot.

1. Select File|New Performance
2. Select Patches for the Slots by using the File|Open To|Slot X command. Repeat the procedure for
the Slots you want to use.
3. To activate or exclude a Slot from the Performance, Shift-click on the desired Slot button in the
Toolbar. To enable or disable Keyboard Assign (which Slots are going to be controlled from the key-
board), Ctrl-click on the desired Slot button(s).
Note that even if you exclude a Slot from the Per-
formance, any Patches in deselected Slots will still be saved with the Performance. If you want to
keep the file size of a Performance down, load any deselected Slots with empty Patches (no mod-
ules in the Patch window).
