Generic half moon switch?

This is the right place if your topic concerns different Nord Keyboards, you are not sure which one is the right one for you, etc.

Generic half moon switch?

Post by maclarston »

Hi, does anyone know of any generic half moon switch to connect to the rotor pedal input o a Nord Stage, from a third-party or competing brand?
I assume it would be slow/fast only and need some improvised attachment but it would be an improvement compared to the toggle switch button or pedal.

Hi, I’m using a Hammond CU-1 half moon switch with my Stage 3, as well as a Nord Half Moon switch before, and they both work flawlessly in all positions Slow - Stop - Fast. I haven’t tried them on my first Nord which was a Stage 2-88 though that did not had a settings option for a half moon switch but I think that they may just provide Slow/Stop or Fast/Stop which is what I encountered with a HX3.4 organ module as well that does not have half moon support but only latching switches
