PEDAL

As indicated in the illustration on 

, a regular resistive (range 10 kOhm to 50 kOhm) expression pedal 

can be connected to the C

 input, using a stereo (Tip-Ring-Sleeve) cable. The connected 

pedal can be used to control either Organ Swell (the characteristic B3 volume control) or Wah-Wah mod-
ulation. Pedals like the Roland EV-5 and control/expression pedals from Proel works well with the Electro 
2. Control pedals from Yamaha have different characteristics and are not suitable for use with the Electro 
2. Nord Electro 2 will also send and receive Expression pedal messages via MIDI (CC# 11).

SETTINGS

If you are controlling the Nord Electro 2 from an external MIDI keyboard, the Nord Electro 2 must be set 
to receive on the same MIDI channel that the external keyboard transmits on. Nord Electro 2 is monotim-
bral (or bitimbral when using the Organ section.See

) which means it can only transmit and receive on one MIDI channel at a time.

1. Set the MIDI keyboard to transmit and receive on MIDI Channel 1. (This is the default setting 

when Nord Electro 2 is shipped from factory).

2. Press the S

 + P

 1 (MIDI CH) but-

tons. The D

 shows the currently selected 

MIDI channel.

3. Scroll with the U

 buttons to 

select MIDI Channel 1 (if it isn’t already 
selected).

4. Press any button (except for the S

 or 

 buttons) to exit.
