The Overdrive effect is a simulation of an overdriven tube amplifier. It’s very useful 
both on Organ and Piano sounds. Activate or deactivate the Overdrive effect with 
the 

O

N

 button and set the overdrive amount with the 

A

MOUNT

 knob.

The Rotary Speaker simulation in Nord Electro 2 is really something above the or-
dinary. It’s not only simulating the rotating speaker and drum but also the built-in 
amplifier of the original Leslie speaker.

Activate or deactivate the Rotary Speaker simulation by pressing the 

O

N

 button. 

Switch between fast and slow rotor speeds by pressing the 

F

AST

 button. To stop the 

rotors, press the 

S

TOP

 button (this does 

not

 deactivate the Rotary Speaker simula-

tion - it only stops the rotors). When you press the 

S

TOP

 button again the rotors 

will accelerate to the speed they had when you first pressed 

S

TOP

.

 knob controls the individual output volume for each Program. 

It’s fully programmable for each Program and sends/receives MIDI CC# 7 (Main
