E. Piano 2/Clav/ Harpsi Not Selectable on Piano Section

Postby Nordy21 » 28 Sep 2016, 18:46

Hi all,

I just purchased my first Nord product, a Stage 2, last week. I am thoroughly enjoying it, and haven't talked to my friends or family in a week, but I am having one issue. In the piano section I can only select Grand, Upright, or E. Piano 1. Even when I go to to Bank A and select "Clavinet A" it gives me a blinking arrow next to Clavinet and a blinking "A" under Model, and no Clavinet sound coming out of the piano section with the volume at max. I tried searching the forums and troubleshooting on my own, but to no avail. Did I miss something obvious?

Sounds like you don't have those samples loaded into the instrument. Hook yourself up to a computer and connect to Nord Sound Manager. That will tell you which sounds are loaded in Piano section. You can download them from Nord's site (as well as get the latest OS while you're at it).
Nords: NE2, NS2 88, NS3 Compact x 2
Live rig: NS3, Vent, Radial KL-8, Shure PSM-900 IEM Rig, UE18 & UE7 IEMs.
Studio: Hammond A-101 & Leslie 122, Yamaha CP-80, Yamaha S90, NS2, DSI Prophet-6, Vent II, Roland JX-8P.

Ah that is indeed the issue! I bought this second hand so the person before me must have taken some of the samples out to fit their needs.

Thank you!
