ONNECTING PEDALS
The Nord Stage has four pedal inputs: one C
Nord Stage parameters), one O
S input (for rotary speaker fast/slow selection). You can select for each instrument whether it

should react to sustain or not (see
page 22). Connect the pedals as shown in the figure below:
When connecting an expression-type pedal to the C
should use a stereo cable (Tip-Ring-Sleeve). Please note that the pedal must have a stereo output jack.
Pedals from various manufacturers have different characteristics. To simplify setup, the most com-
mon pedal models (Roland, Yamaha, Ernie Ball and Fatar) are preconfigured in the Nord Stage, and
you simply select the type of pedal in the System menu. See
information about this setting.
