![]() ![]() Depending on how the Nord is wired internally it might even work with cables with stereo jacks, but I've had issues with that (granted, on a Waldorf Blofeld) and I would use mono jacks. The manual would show this, but I need to register on the Akai site to read the manual and I'm not going to do that.īalanced and unbalanced (line-level) are electrically different, but on almost all audio interfaces with balanced inputs you can force it to treat an input as an unbalanced source by plugging in a cable with a mono jack (TR, tip-ring) instead of a stereo one (TRS, tip-ring-sleeve). The inserts on the back might be unbalanced though they probably are. Note that your Akai EIE has balanced inputs on the front, while the Nord has unbalanced (line-level) outputs. In your case, you could plug the Electro 3 into the USB hub of the Akai interface and you'd run audio cables from the Electro's outputs to the Akai's inputs and a pair of MIDI cables between the Nord and the Akai (MIDI OUT on the Nord to MIDI IN on the Akai and vice versa). Only the Stage 2, Piano 2 and Electro 4D can send MIDI over USB. MIDI and audio goes via the normal cables. ![]() ![]() On the Electro 3 you only use USB for updating sounds. Sure, the Akai has a three-port USB hub in the pack and you could plug it into that, but in your software would would see the audio coming from a new interface and not the Akai EIE itself. None of the Nord instruments can send audio over their USB connection even if they did you wouldn't be able to send the sound via USB to the Akai and then to the PC. ![]()
