Newbie can't get organ split working on Electro 3

Postby jmkvalsund » 29 May 2015, 22:26

Hi everyone, I'm new to the world of Nord keyboards, so this may be a stupid question but anyhow:

According to the manual I press SHIFT+Split, the LED flashes, I press the desired split point key (still pressing SHIFT-Split), release SHIFT+Split. Nothing happens, there's no split point set when I set the keyboard in split mode (Split LED on). What am I doing wrong??? :crazy:

It is the correct manual, page 10. Does the default organ split (C4) work? The manual speaks of pushing SHIFT and PRESET/SPLIT, but I'm sure that's what you meant. BTW, are you on the highest software version with the Electro? Should be 3.10.

The C4 default split doesnt' work. When I select Split mode, I get the upper voice "all over". I am on software version 3.10.
I do as described on page 12 in my manual (just downloaded from Nord), "Nord Electro 3 English User Manual v3.x Edition 3.1"

Hmm, I'm out of ideas - and it's the same manual, it's also on page 10..

Is it possible you're using the same sound on both sides of the split? If so, you wouldn't hear any difference even though the split point is actually set.

In my experience there is a Red light at the split switch and you can change which"manual"
You are operating by flipping the switch for upper or lower.
The drawlights & octave switch would be functional for the chosen Manual.

I had this situation today..

In the MIDI Setup, if the MIDI SPLIT MODE is set to ON, the keyboard understands that the LOWER part will be in another SLAVE keyboard, connected via MIDI cable to the NE3.

Did you find a way to get the split working? Today I've upgraded to OS 3.12 But still the same. I've disconnected the MIDI cables, set the "MIDI Split mode" to "off", but still no split function...

Press and hold SHIFT, then hit PRESET/SPLIT button in Organ Section and LED should light up indicating that SPLIT MODE is active.

Switch back and forth between lower and upper manuals by hitting that same button without shift

Set lower and upper drawbars to radically different settings so that you can clearly hear the differences

Bless,

Pablo
