What does <shift>+<last drawbar> do?

Postby JohnT » 25 Jun 2019, 18:23

Hi all,

I'm an extreme "newbie" to Nord instruments. I just bought an Electro 4 SW73 and I am LOVING it!

I do have a question about a "feature" I can not find any documentation for.

When in Organ mode, if I press the Shift key along with the last drawbar on the bottom right, it cycles through countless Organ Presets.
I've tried to count them but gave up after a couple hundred. There doesn't seem to be any way to go backwards.

Can anyone tell me what this key combination is doing and what it's function is?

Thanks,

It's a random preset generator. Simple as that. :D If you found a repeating pattern, we should all be slightly annoyed. ;)

Funny function!
Has this survived into later models, e.g. the 5D?

It's in the Electro 3 manual. I don't know about the others.
