Nord Pad problem (Nord Drum 2)

Hi there,

I’ve had a Nord Drum 2 + Nord Pad combination for a while now, and just recently the Pad stopped working properly. Owners will know it’s connected to the ND2 module through an ethernet cable (original cable gone at this point).

It seems like something is wrong with the Nord Pad’s ethernet port. Sometimes it works fine, and sometimes it plays completely wrong notes, usually at a very low velocity. If I wiggle the cable a little near the Pad’s ethernet port, then it shifts between working/not working.

I’ve tested four different cables, and they all lead to slightly different versions of the same problem. Two cables simply won’t work correctly, even if I wiggle the cable a bit.

Everything was working fine until the problem suddenly appeared. This is extremely frustrating as it can’t be used live at all now, and it’s extremely unreliable in the studio.Any thoughts, ideas or suggestions would be VERY appreciated as the Nord Drum 2 is at the centre of my whole creative workflow.
