Percussion on Lower Part (5D)
At the beginning of tarkus, Keith Emmerson plays the Ostinato part in the beginning with his left hand on the upper manual using percussion. Is there any way to emulate that on the electro 5D? Basically i want to use percussion on the lower part.

Re: Percussion on Lower Part (5D)
You can have percussion on either lower or upper but not both at the same time.
Just select percussion on Lower... As soon as You do it will kill the Upper percussion.

Re: Percussion on Lower Part (5D)
I'm afraid i can't get it to work. When i select organ for both upper and lower part and use a split, the percussion is only selectable for the upper part. When i select lower, there's no reaction.

Hm, that's weird. I'll give it a go to see if there are any caveats when I make it work.

Re: Percussion on Lower Part (5D)
OK, played around a little...
- Can be selected on both Upper and Lower when switching between them in non-split mode.
- Can be selected on Upper or Lower when in KB split mode IF running a MIDI keyboard for Upper with Upper receive split point.
- Can not be selected on Lower if KB split on the NE5 keybed.
- Can not be set to Lower if using B3+Bass, regardless of any of the above.
As far as my empirical tests went those are the "rules".
So the caveat was the MIDI keyboard.

Re: Percussion on Lower Part (5D)
Thanks for your effort. I was going for the third option, since I don’t have another keyboard connected (yet).
Unless someone else has a better idea, I’ll just live with it not working, although I don’t understand why Nord has disabled this...

Re: Percussion on Lower Part (5D)
No, it's a bit weird to allow it on split with MIDI keys but not on split on own keys.
Should require the same engines internally...
