Nord lead 4 power converter

Post by Michael Bracha »

Hello
I bought from u.s this unit and it is on the way to here.
Q:What is the watt of Nord lead 4?
Q:Is it right that all nord is 115v?
Thank you

Where are you located and what voltage will you be feeding to the Nord?

It is NOT right that all Nord are 115v, some are 230v. If your mains power is 230v you will need to convert the instrument BEFORE using it.

May I ask the name of the store?

Yes, you can use power converter, but this is generally thought to be a short term solution, for example for someone who may be traveling out of the country for a couple weeks on tour. For long term, relatively permanent use, this is not a good idea.
