Newbie asking about output isssue on Nord E3

[DanRH]

Hey All,

I'm a drummer that doesn't play keys but owns a Nord Electro 3 73. I bought the keyboard for my band (that doesn't have a keyboard player which we are trying to remedy). Our lead singer dabbles and plays the Nord. I bought it new because I've heard so many great players using the Nord's. My main motiviation was to get a keyboard that had great Hammong and paino sounds.

We're having an issue where if we use the Left Output, only certain sounds (mainly organ) come out. We never run it stereo and it seems like only the right output is working with all the sounds. Does this sound like I need to get it serviced or do you think it may be a programming issue? If so, can anyone offer suggestions?

I aplogize for my ignorance in this area but I would like to know if it's something we did or does it need to be serviced. The keyboard was purchased new, online a little over a year ago. Also, I really haven't got into learning the Keyboards menu's (Honstly I tried but gave up).
Thanks!

Hey DanRH, welcome to the forum.

As most often, the answer is in the manual There are three different "output modes". Check out the right side of your Electro's panel and you'll see them. I guess you're in the mode where the organs and pianos go each on their own side.

Great, I'll check it out! Thanks!

Hi
Defiantly check the menus that are printed on the right of the keyboard, they look daunting but if you give it a bit of time to read through them it actually becomes quite clear, I owned E3 for quite a few years and I was not used to seeing menus printed on keyboards but it's very handy and helpful once you get used to it.
Regards
