Sustain pedal in performance mode, nord lead a1

Postby Xfeten » 03 Jan 2017, 11:35

Hi everyone. I,ve read the manual but not found how to setup pedal sustain for differents slots in performance mode in my lead a1. I need sustain pedal at slots a/b (strings chords) but not need it in slots c/d (lead synth). Need some help to setup this properly.

So, how deactivate the sustain pedal at slots cd but set on for slots ab?

Thanks for your precious help.

I guess you can't. Unfortunately Nord is not famous for it's per patch flexibility. Look up the global vibrato settings. ;)

Sustain pedal is midi cc64. maybe there is a way to do it with a midi controller through midi, by setting up different midi channels per slot. That would mean having extra gear ie (Midi controller) in your set up.

Yes, this would be possible.

I did a workaround for this.

I selected the expression pedal to work as a morph controller and then assigned the release parameter (from the AMP ENV) to the maximum on the slot A, that I needed to work as a sustain pedal. Left the slot C not affected by the expression pedal.

So when I wanted to sustain the notes on the A slot, I just pressed full the expression pedal. To release the Sustain, I pressed the Expression pedal back to the initial position.

That allowed me to play in slot A, leave it sustained while playing on the slot C and then come back to continue playing on the slot A.

That is exactly how to individualize the Sustain per Slot, meaning, using a different MIDI channel per slot and then using a Pedal assigned to the relevant MIDI channel via a MIDI controller (like the Nektar Pacer, just as an example).
I do use a Nektar Pacer as my Controller for several things, like the Nord Electro Organ Rotor speed controller (opposed to using the panel button and Half-Moon switch), the Nord Lead A1 Volume and Sustain for slots A and C (my Strings/Lead slots). For those I use two pairs of EV5/SP10 Roland Pedals connected to the Nektar Pacer.
