Nordstage Midi Controller Numbers

Post by accobello »

Hello and thank you for this forum.
Is it possible to change the midi controller numbers assigned to the KNOBS and DRAWBARS on the Nordstage? For example, the Nordstage drawbars are numbered 9-14-15-16-17-18-19-20-21. The drawbars on the Native Instruments B4 virtual Hammond VSTi are numbered 12-13-14-15-16-17-18-19-20 for the upper manual and 21-22-23-24-25-26-27-28-29 for the lower manual. So the Nordstage drawbars match up for 7 of the NI B4 drawbars. Is there a solution to this or are the controller numbers for the KNOBS and SLIDERS fixed? I know you can assign any controller number to the parameter rotary encoder knob but it would be great if others can also be set individually.
Thank you for any responses or help or suggestions.
Accobello.

hi Accobello.
most likely you're no longer around this forum.... since this post is almost as old as the Nord Stage! ;-)
but i will answer anyway in order to help others.

there's no way to change the MIDI CCs on the Nord Stage.
the NS can't be set to just send some of the CCs (and disable others).
therefore,
if you want to send CCs from the NS onboard controllers you'll need to have a good/advanced MIDI SLAVE which can disable or re-adress CC messages you don't want to use.

Thank you.
I've also used the midi translator in Nuendo.
If I really need more I'll get hold of a Novation controller.
Thanks for the reply.
