In Need Of Nord Modular G2 Motherboard - Will Pay Well!

Postby SamwiseGanges » 29 Nov 2021, 23:22

Hi all, I'm in need of a replacement motherboard for my Nord Modular G2. It is having issues, where if you tap on it or press a button too hard it will freak out and get stuck in a boot loop. Sometimes it will do this when you first turn it on, other times it boots fine and works great until you bump it too hard.

Since it's responding to physical touch it seems that it's a physical hardware issue. Since it causes the keyboard to glitch out (screens all go black or blank) I would say it's on the main motherboard with the CPU and DSP chips. My guess would be a cracked trace somewhere in the PCB, which there isn't any way for me to repair. There is no visible damage to any parts (no bulging capacitors, burnt components, or visible broken leads)

So, if anyone has an old or non-functional Nord G2 which has a known good motherboard, please let me know as I will pay well for it.

Thanks!
-Samwise

This could be a fairly obscure item to source on its own. Have you considered looking for a full unit to purchase. I did a quick search and see some available via Reverb and eBay, perhaps other sources. Best of luck getting your Nord G2 back in business!
