FFECTS

Nord Electro 2 offers six types of vintage style effects to add that extra flavour to your 
sounds. Activate or deactivate the Effects section by pressing the O

 button.

P

HASER

 1&2

The phaser effect is a very characteristic “sweep” effect and is frequently used in all 
sorts of music. You control the rate of the phase shift with the R

 knob and the 

phase shift amount with the A

 knob.

F

LANGER

 1&2

The flanger effect is another type of very characteristic “sweep” effect. It’s quite sim-
ilar to the phaser effect but has a little different characteristics. You set the flanging 
rate with the R

 knob and the amount with the A

 knob.

C

HORUS

 1&2

The Chorus effect simulates the appearance of several slightly detuned signals. You 
set the rate for the chorus effect with the R

 knob and the amount with the 

 knob. Note that the Chorus2 effect is in stereo.

O

VERDRIVE

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

 button and set the overdrive amount with the A

 knob.

R

OTARY

 S

PEAKER

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

Activate or deactivate the Rotary Speaker simulation by pressing the O

 button. 

Switch between fast and slow rotor speeds by pressing the F

 button. To stop the 

rotors, press the S

 button (this does not deactivate the Rotary Speaker simulation 

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

 button again the rotors will ac-

celerate to the speed they had when you first pressed S

.

FROM

 

PEDAL

By plugging in a sustain pedal in the R

 input you can control the speed selection 

from a pedal. It’s also possible to use a sustain pedal connected to the S

 input to control 

the speed selection. Please refer to 

 for information on how to set up Nord Electro 2 

for operation with sustain/switch pedals.
