The Menus
Any settings that you change in the System, MIDI, Sound or Pedal menus will take immediate effect on a global basis, and the settings will be stored
until you change them the next time. Enter the menus by pressing and holding Shift and the System, MIDI, Sound or Pedal button (program but-
tons 1 to 4). Select a function with the Up/Down buttons and change the setting by pressing and holding Shift and the Up or Down button. Exit the
menus by pressing a second time on the program buttons or on the Shift/Exit button.
M
There is one exception, one menu setting that doesn't get automatically stored when you power off the Piano 2, and this is the MIDI Local On/
Off setting. This always reverts to Local On every time the Nord Piano 2 is powered up.
System Menu
Memory Protect – On, Off
This is set to "On" when the Nord Piano 2 leaves the factory, meaning
that you (or a "cousin") cannot store any changes to the programs. Set
this to Off when you wish to store your own programs. The System,
MIDI or Sound menu settings and the Live memory are not protected by
this setting.
Range: On (default), Off
Fine Tune
This allows you to fine tune the pitch of the Nord Piano 2.
Range: +/- 50 cent (default = 0).
Global Transpose
This allows you to transpose the entire Nord Piano 2 in semitone steps.
Any setting you make here will be added to the panel transpose that
may be saved with the programs.
Range: +/- 6 semitones (default = 0).
MIDI Menu
MIDI Channel
This sets the MIDI Channel that the Nord Piano 2 transmits and
responds to. Use the USB channel settings if you want to transmit and
receive keyboard and panel MIDI messages via the USB interface.
Range: 1-16, USB1 - USB16, Off (default = USB 1)
Local Control
This allows you to set if the Nord Piano 2 keyboard and front panel
controls should control internal Programs or only send note and
controller messages via MIDI. Local On is the normal "mode". In Local
Off mode, the front panel and keyboard action are transmitted via MIDI
only and does not control the internal sounds or functions directly.
Range: On (default), Off
M
Local defaults back to Local On every time the Nord Piano 2 is
powered on.
Control Change (CC) Mode
This setting specifies how the front panel's knobs and buttons are han-
dled in the MIDI communication with MIDI Control Change messages.
You can select if the panel controls should either send or receive, or
both or if Control Change messages should be ignored.
Range: Send/Recv (default), Receive, Send, Off
Program Change Mode
Specifies how the Nord Piano 2 should handle MIDI Program Change
messages.
Range: Send/Recv (default), Receive, Send, Off
Send CC
You can send a package of all the active Program's parameters as
MIDI Control Change messages. Press the Store button to perform the
transmission.
