I have an Electro 3-73, but I think this question applies more broadly...

Are there any known hidden control menus for the Nord KBs? For example, on my NE3-73, the PHAS1 effect sweep is rather uneven -- it spends most of its sweep at the high frequency end (kinda hangs there for 3/4 of the cycle) and only briefly dips down to the lower frequencies during each sweep. (PHAS2 is much more even.) It would be great if there were hidden menus that allowed for tweaks to that and other effects (such as rotary or compression).

Anyone know of any?

I don't think there are any hidden menus to tweak any settings. There may be some button combinations you can use to reset the board and/or bring it into firmware flash condition, but I wouldn't want to try that just for the fun of it (and no, I don't know the shortcuts, sorry).

You get what you get, there is nothing "hidden".

Kurzweil used to hide a “Pong game” Easter egg in their K2 series OS... the rotary encoder controlled the onscreen “paddle”.

Not that I’d actually want Clavia to waste time on something like that, but those OLED screens are ripe with potential.
