NE5: How to get a Roland RD170 Pad sound into my NE5

Postby Henri » 10 May 2016, 11:23

Hi everybody,

maybe this question is stupid, but since I switched from Roland to Nord I am not so familiar with my NE5 yet.
I play in a lounge band and very often, I add a very soft and mellow synthie pad to my piano or e-piano to add some warmth.

Even if I find the pianos and organs amazing with the NE5 it really lacks some soft pad sounds.

So far I went through all sounds which have been shipped with the NE5 - nothing really comes close to it.

Is it possible & feasible with not too much time spent to sample via the sample editor directly from the Roland RD170 (=identical to RD300)?
Or what would you suggest?

thanks,
Henri
Henri

The Nord Sample Editor freeware is not capable of sampling directly from anything. You will need some intermediate recording device, whether hardware or software, to handle the actual sample recording duties for your contemplated project. But that's a simple and straightforward thing and once it is done, you can easily dump the resulting .wav files into Nord Sample Editor and generate a .nsmp file for loading into your NE5.

Note that there are MANY many many pads available to you in the Nord Sample Libraries (v1 and v2) and also here in this forum's libraries. You may find something which will work nicely for you -- but go ahead and try the sampling route. It's not that hard to produce good sounding results.

Bless,

Pablo

Hi Henri,

Here is an example of a piano with pad.

Lower part is "Grand Lady D Stw D Lrg 5.3"

Upper part is "soft analog.nsmp", which can be downloaded here:
nord-user-samples-nsmp-samples-f14/some-new-samples-with-corresponding-programs-for-ne5-t10919.html?#p71728

Change the program for your needs (maybe there's too much reverb :angel: ).
