Performances allow you to call up four Programs at a time in a live situation, or to recall complete setups
when sequencing via MIDI. The Nord Lead 2X comes with 100 rewritable Performances and another
3x100 Performances in ROM. Some of these make use of two, three or four Slots, while some are single-
Slot Performances, effectively serving as extra “Programs”. Please note:

• You can edit any Performance as desired, but you can only save your changes in the first Performance
bank (A.0-L.9).
• You can transmit edited Performance data via MIDI SysEx, for storage in an external sequencer, etc.
• If the Performance contains a Percussion Kit, only the reference to the Kit Location will be saved with
the SysEx dump! To include the parameters for the Percussion Kit, you need to make a separate SysEx
dump of the Percussion Kit, from Program mode (not from Performance mode).

• You can receive SysEx data for one Performance at a time into the edit buffer. If you for example use
Nord Lead 2X multitimbrally together with a sequencer, it is often practical to place a SysEx Perform-
ance data dump in the beginning of your song, to select sounds, initialize global settings, etc.

The Factory Performances include several life-like drawbar organ simulations, created using a special
“pseudo-additive” synthesis method. Some of the sounds include famous sound artifacts such as “hum”
and “click” as well as rotating speaker effects, accomplished with the Nord Lead2X’s Morph function.
Among the Performances you can also find recreations of over 40 original factory patches from the classic
vintage synthesizer Prophet 5. All Performances are listed on

Note that Performances works quite differently on the Nord Rack 2X. On the Nord Rack 2X all Slots
you want to be layered should be set to the same MIDI Channel. It doesn’t matter which Slots in a
Performance are selected or not since all Slots respond to incoming MIDI data all the time. This means
that playing a Performance on Nord Rack 2X may require manual adjustment of the Slot’s MIDI
Channels to play back as desired.
