Actually, how to change a programmed sound can be described in one sentence: “twist the knobs and 
press the buttons”. It is as simple as that!

• For information about editing Percussion Kits, refer to 

page 29

.

• Don’t be afraid to edit and overwrite the RAM Programs in the internal memory (Program 1 - 3.99). 

If you want to restore any of the original RAM factory programs later on, they can be fetched as stand-
ard MIDI files at http://www.clavia.se and downloaded to the Nord Lead 2X from a MIDI sequencer.

If you have layered Programs you can still edit one of the Programs from the front panel. Proceed as fol-
lows:

1. Press the Slot button that you want to edit. Its LED will flash to indicate it is the active Slot.

2. Use the front panel knobs and buttons to change the Program in the active Slot.

If you have edited a Program and want to get back to the programmed original, proceed as follows:

1. Select another Program for the Slot with the U

 buttons.

2. Select the first Program again. It will now have reverted back to the way it was when you last selected 

it.

If you want to use the front panel to make up a sound from scratch, hold down S

 and press the Man-

ual (P

) button. This leaves you with exactly the sound that the knobs and buttons on the panel 

currently indicate (just as if the Nord Lead 2X was a non-programmable instrument). In Manual mode, 
the instrument can play only one sound - layering is not possible.
