The USB connection on the Nord Lead A1 can also transmit and

receive MIDI messages.

Pedal Connections

There are two pedal inputs; one for a sustain pedal and one for a

control pedal.

Sustain pedal

1/4" connector for a switch type pedal. When a connected pedal is

operated, the notes you play will be sustained.

Two kinds of pedal polarities can be used, open or closed. Select the

type that applies to your sustain pedal, in the System menu.

Control pedal

1/4" stereo connector for continuous pedals (also know as expression

pedals). This can be used as a source for the Morph function or to con-

trol the overall volume.

An expression pedal connected to to the Control Pedal input, must use

a stereo connector (Tip-Ring-Sleeve).

The most common pedal models (Roland, Yamaha, Korg and Fatar) are

pre-conﬁgured in the Nord Lead A1. Select the type of pedal that you

use in the System menu.
