8 | NORD ELECTRO 6 USER MANUAL OS V2.6X
LIST VIEW
Any dial that has LIST written below it - such as the Program dial - can
be used to access a useful list view.
1 Press SHIFT and turn the PROGRAM dial to enter a list view of all the
Programs.
2 Browse to any program, using the PROGRAM dial. All 26 program
banks can be accessed when in List mode.
3 Try out the Abc and Cat soft buttons respectively. Note that in Abc
mode, all programs are shown in a list sorted by name and in Cat
mode as a list sorted by Category.
4 Press SHIFT again to EXIT the List view.
List views for the Piano and Sample dials work in a similar way.
EDIT A PROGRAM
Editing a program is as easy as turning a knob or pressing a button to
change an existing setting. Let’s give it a quick try:
1 Dial up the first program (A:11, a piano based program) for this
exercise.
The controls for the Piano instrument are located immediately to
the left of the Program area on the panel. Notice that the Piano
section of the Program area display shows the name of the select-
ed piano sound.
SELECT A NEW PIANO SOUND
2 Turn the PIANO SELECT dial to browse the piano sounds. Sounds
are organized according to their type (for instance Grand and
Upright).
3 Try selecting a piano sound from the LIST view, accessed by
pressing SHIFT and turning the PIANO SELECT dial. Use Shift again
to EXIT the list view.
Note that changing any parameter on the panel causes an “E” to
appear next to the program number in the display. This is to show that
the program has been edited but not yet saved. If another program is
loaded before a Store operation is performed, any edits are lost and the
program will have its original settings the next time it is loaded.
TURN OFF MEMORY PROTECTION
When the Nord Electro 6 is shipped from factory its memory is protected
to prevent accidental overwriting of original programs. Memory protec-
tion can be turned off by toggling a setting located in the System menu.
1 Hold SHIFT and press the SYSTEM (Program 1) button below the
display.
2 Memory Protect is the first setting of the System menu. If the dis-
play shows a different setting, use the Page3button to navigate to
the Memory Protect setting.
3 Change this setting to Off by turning the PROGRAM dial.
4 Press EXIT (Shift button) to exit the System menu.
M This setting, like most other System settings, will be permanently
stored until it is changed again.
Read more about menu settings on page 27.
STORE A PROGRAM
1 Press the STORE button to the left of the display once, to begin the
process of storing the current program.
2 The STORE LED will begin to flash and the display will ask you for
the location to which you want to store the program.
3 If you want to store the edited version to the current location,
replacing the original, simply press STORE again. If not, use the dial,
PROGRAM and/or PAGE 3/4 buttons to select a different location.
The program in the selected location becomes active on the
keyboard, allowing it to be auditioned before it is replaced by the
program being stored.
4 When you have found a suitable location for your program, press
STORE again to confirm the store operation.
M Press Shift/Exit once to abort an ongoing Store process if you
change your mind.
Read more about Store and how to name a program in the Program
chapter, on page 17.
LIVE MODE
The eight LIVE programs, divided into two pages – A:1-4 and B:1-4 –
differ from other programs in that all edits made to them are instantly
stored, without the need for a manual Store operation.
1 Press LIVE MODE and use the PROGRAM and PAGE buttons to
navigate the eight Live programs.
2 Make an edit, such as activating one of the effects sections, to one
of the programs.
3 Select a different Live program and then return to the one that was
edited. Note that the edit was automatically stored.
Press the Live Mode button again to exit Live Mode and return to the
Program banks.
If Live Mode is active and you wish to store the settings permanently
as a program in one of the Program banks, you can do so using the
standard Store methods (see above). Conversely, programs can also
be stored into any of the eight Live Mode memory locations by pressing
LIVE MODE and selecting one of the Live program locations.
