Everything about the Nord Wave Synthesizer

Has nord issued updates to it's sample software?

The nord sample software is just crappy. Unless I'm missing some strange "auto" setting, it seems I can't set a sample start and end time, with a loop where I want. If I choose "long" loop, I can't trim a single cycle sample. If I choose "short" loop, it chooses that single cycle for me, incorrectly. I just want to choose the start and end points where I want to, and I can't. Sure automatically sticking to zero's for the end points is fine, but let me choose which zero point to end on, not just the "first one" it encounters.

If nord has been issuing updates to their sample software, I have some hope that they will correct this huge oversight - but otherwise, I'm moving on to other sample editing software for the heavy lifting. I can't image that they would make sample editing software, where the loop points in a sample are chosen by "assumption" instead of user input, that is just bonkers. In this day and age, software does not need to have any limitations, just offer the options, keep it open ended, sure add an "assumption" mode if you think it's worth while, but don't limit the choices users can make. I've never seen this before in a sample editor of any type, hardware or software.

What do other people do to get around this? Use other software?

seems that nord still hasn't fixed this issue, or am i missing something? been trying to make some single cycle waveform programs for the Nord Wave but the software won't let me...
