Hi all,
I just got my Wave ... And I already have a question!
How can I use the sounds provided on the Nord website in the Wave? I know you have to put them in the Wave using the sound manager application, and then select them in osc2 ... but ... How do I have them to sound like they are ment to? I mean: I also had an Electro 3, in which you simply load files from the library, and you use them as an instrument.
How can I do this with the Wave? (so just play the sample, I don't want to use lfo's or filters or whatever)
I hope this is clear ...
Thanks!

Make sample and sound init (2 buttons top left of NW, with shift button down) then go and test a sample in the osc 2 section.

Re: Using Nord Sample Library files in the Wave
Be aware that the sample sounds you can hear on the Clavia site use the samples you can download, but potentially use a lot of additional settings (which you don't get when you download the samples). The samples are an additional oscillator sound source, not finished instruments.
Also have a look at the page below, if you haven't already. A lot of good, additional sounds and most of them use the standard samples (if they use samples).

Re: Using Nord Sample Library files in the Wave
Hi all, thanks for the very informing replies. I get the idea now ... However, I had a sample in my Electro, the Elka Synthex "laser harp" sound (can't remember the name), which sounded totally different from the version in the Wave. But I might get what I want with some tweaking, especially the bass end isn't really ... euhm ... 'bassy'

Strange. As far as I know the Wave can do anything (and then some) with samples the Electro 3 can and as such should be able to recreate any (sample-based) sound the Electro 3 can make. Are you sure you don't have a filter affecting your sound?

Re: Using Nord Sample Library files in the Wave
There are no filters active, I assume. I did the "sample init" ... I'll check somewhere this week, for the moment the front panel is disassembled

be aware that the filters are parts of the "sound ", so you need to make a sound init , not only a sample init

Re: Using Nord Sample Library files in the Wave
Check the index in the manual for which buttons you need to press.
Sample init sets up the synth section so it plays back a sample (without any filtering, etc). Sound init sets up the synth section to produce a basic synth sound, which is a good starting point for creating new noises.
