Bass Pedal
To use the Nord C2D's dedicated pedal registers, connect the MIDI
Out from your external controller (preferably a bass pedalboard) to the
Bass Pedal connector. The pedal registers will respond to all MIDI note
messages received regardless of their MIDI channel.
Audio connections
Monitor In
Use this to connect and monitor a signal from an mp3 or a CD player
at the Nord C2D's headphone output. This allows you to for example
rehearse with your C2D to pre-recorded music.
M Signals connected to this input will not be processed with the
Nord C2D's effects or appear at the left and right output jacks.
Main stereo output - Left & Right
The left and right line level outputs from the Nord C2D are unbalanced.
Use the ¼" connectors to connect the Nord C2D to an amplifier or
recording equipment.

This is where you connect a ¼" stereo connector from a pair of head-
phones.
E Playing at a high volume level can result in hearing impairments
such as permanent hearing loss.
Rotary Speaker outputs
The rotary speaker high level outputs consist of a ¼" jack, and a 11-pin
Leslie™ standard connector. The high level jack output are 14V RMS
high level, unbalanced, and are only intended to be connected to a ro-
tary speaker cabinet with built in amplifier. Any other form of use might
result in damaged equipment.
It is possible to route the tonewheel organ to the High Level and 11-pin
outputs and the other organs to the main outputs. Other combinations
are also possible. Read more about this on page 19.
