A Clavinet D6 has two separate pick-ups, one on the “neck” and one on the “bridge”. By selecting either 
one pick-up or both in different combinations you can alter the character of the sound quite drastically. On 
the Mega Clavinet sound, the A
MOUNT
 knob works as the pick-up selector according to the figure below

If you want to process your sound using external effects, 
it can be convenient to route Organ and Piano sounds to 
separate outputs of the Nord Electro 2. Note that the 
Output routing is not saved, so you will have to re-
configure after power off.
1. Hold down S
HIFT
 and press the P
ROGRAM
 8 but-
ton three times. The D
ISPLAY
 reads ‘H.0’ where 
‘H’ stands for ‘Hard pan’ and ‘0’ that both Organ 
and Piano sounds are routed to L
EFT
 O
UT
 and 
R
IGHT
 O
UT
 without separation.
2. Select ‘separate outputs’ by pressing the U
P
 N
AV
-
IGATOR
 button so the D
ISPLAY
 reads ‘H.1’. ‘H.1’ 
means that Organ sounds will be output only 
through the L
EFT
 O
UT
 and Piano sounds only 
through the R
IGHT
 O
UT
Note that any stereo effect you apply to a sound internally will be in 
mono in ‘H.1’ mode.
3. Press any button (except for the S

Some of the piano instruments sampled for the Nord Electro 2 have very wide dynamic ranges by nature 
and naturally we wanted to capture this as accurately as possible. Therefore, it could be perceived that it is 
a little hard to reach the most extreme levels when playing the Nord Electro 2 piano sounds with the de-
fault keyboard Velocity Sensitivity setting. This is because the dynamic response curves have been very 
carefully adjusted to match each original instrument's response characteristics. In other words, Clavia's in-
By turning the 
A
MOUNT
 knob you select one of the four 
Clavinet D6 pick-up configurations. The pick-up configu-
ration number is briefly shown in the 
D
ISPLAY
 as you turn 
the 
A
MOUNT
 knob.
The configurations are these:
C.b:
 Only the "bridge" pick-up; a bright sound.
C.A:
 Only the "neck" pick-up; a warm, less bright sound.
d.A: 
Both pick-ups on but 180 degrees out of phase; the 
fundamental is almost cancelled and the sound becomes 
pretty thin
d.b:
 Both pick-ups on and in phase; a very full sound
