Nord Electro 6D, No Piano or Synth Sounds

Post by RussTobin »

My piano and synth sounds stopped working on my Nord Electro 6D.
Only the organ works.
Anyone else had this problem?

Are you using both outputs? If not, check the output routings:
From the manual:
"In Stereo mode, all sounds are sent to both audio outputs. When set
to Main:L Organ:R, Piano and Sample Synth sounds are set to the Left
output and Organ sounds to the Right."

if it's not a routing issue, then maybe a loose cable inside. There are occasions where one of the flat ribbon cables loosens gets loosened and causes a malfunction.
This means opening the synth and carefully check/tight all of the ribbon cables.
