Nord Electro 2 - Need List of Factory Samples

[steviek]

Hi. This is a question from almost 15 years ago, and I'm doubtful I'll get an answer, but I have to try. The Electro 2 came with 48 factory-installed samples, which included simulations of so many classic piano and organ keyboards. Now that I'm getting ready to sell it to a friend, I realize that I no longer have that information, and it would be so great (and more valuable) if I could tell the buyer which instruments are on which presets.

The 48 presets are each numbered with a letter (A-F) and a number (1-8), for example, A1, A2, ..., F7, F8. A couple of the presets don't have any instrument loaded.

I have searched all of the forums (as well as google and the Clavia web site) and haven't found anything for such an old instrument. I did find the list of samples for the Electro 3 on a forum, but the Electro 3 has many more than 48 presets, so that list wouldn't apply.

If you had or have an Electro 2, and have that information sitting around, I would greatly appreciate a copy. If there's any expense involved, I would happily pay it as well as a few bucks for your trouble.

Thank you and hoping for the best,

Steve

You probably will know that there still is a manual and a factory restore bundle available on the Nord website. But no preset list - if there ever was one.

The list of the factory installed instruments now includes an acoustic grand (C7 Conservatory) from the Stage that could only be loaded from OS 3.04 on - so there will have been other preset lists in the beginning:
Hammond B3,
E.Piano1 (May 1978, deep timbre, low vol.), E.Piano2 (Jan 1975, ideal timbre),
ElGrand2 (Gerbstädt w/ CP80 pickups)
Wur1 (Wurlitzer),
Clav1 (Clavinet D6),
AcGrand5 (Yamaha C7 Conservatory)

Did you check the content of the zip files at Nords page here already https://www.nordkeyboards.com/sound-lib ... ory-sounds

I don't have a NE2, so I don't know if that is what you're looking for? But if you unzip the file, maybe you can guess from the names etc?

They are in MIDI-SysEx - I couldn't read anything.
