Nord Lead EEPROM chip replacement

I've just ordered an EEPROM Chip from a distributor to update my Nordlead (1) OS from a 1.6 to a 2.7.

Can anyone let me know how much they bought their's for??
Ive paid 60 dollars for mine but I feel like the distributor juiced me way too much.

thanks,

It's a well known fact Nord's pricing isn't in the lowest regions...
Anyway it's more different when Europe - USA trade lines are involved.
It's about € 41.-
A reasonable price, I think...

Contact Clavia about this, because once in a while they make a re-run.

Hello everybody,

is the Nord Lead OS 2.7 Upgrade EPROM still available? My "new old" 2nd-hand NL only has Version 1.6 and I'd like to upgrade it, what would you recommend me to do?

Thanks a lot in advance for your answers Smile

I would contact Clavia first.
(They are on holiday now...)
After that I would search the internet for it.

Thank you a lot for the information Wout Smile

Do you know how long they're on vacation?

I've always wanted to tell you one thing, maybe a little off-topic:

I'm a faithful reader of your writings about Clavia synths for several years now, though I've never asked something in this great forum before myself. You and the other guys around here helped me a lot in terms of understanding and operating my synths. There's always a nice and valuable answer to all of the inquirer's questions. Good to have you Smile
