Layer A/B glows orange instead of red

Hello everyone, I've had the piano5 for a few days and the following problem. The lights at Layer A/B no longer glow red but orange. Somehow it no longer works to combine two different sounds, i think. What have I set and how can I undo it?
Many thanks for your help.

Have you tried to reload the OS? If that persists, you might have to contact the Nord distributor in your country.

On latest NP5 Manual I see that Layer A/B buttons are amber actually (maybe Nord changed their color in on of the latest OS updates?)

Anyway, never mind the color, try to use them as usual and they should work.

Just checked on my NP5, running OS 1.24 (latest). All Layer on/off LEDs are red on my instrument.

Which HW revision is your NP5? Could also be a HW Rev change (just to consider all possibilities).

Is it possibly a cross fade setup? I don’t have mine in front of me now, though I recollect that the NS3 has orange lit up for cross fades.

No, unlike at the Stage 3 and 4, split crossfades aren't indicated here by different colors of the split point LED, they are always yellow/greenish.

At my NP5 (Rev. B, 2.0) all Layer knob LEDs are amber and they never change colour.

rev A or B? Because Nordlicht instead reports amber leds (like in the manual) for Layer A/B buttons. :wtf:
