Hi,

I recently switched from a Nord Piano 2 to a Nord Stage 2 EX, and am having some problems with getting midi to work in the same I'm used to.

I'm trying to send Midi CC 11 (expression) to the Nord through my laptop running Logic/Mainstage.

With my Nord Piano 2, this works fine but the Stage doesn't seem to respond at all to the CC message. I'm sure I'm missing something obvious, but not sure what!

Nord Piano 2 setup (which works):
- Midi set to ch1
- Local control set to off
- CC mode set to send/rec

Nord Sage setup (which doesn't):
- global midi set to ch1
- Local control set to off
- Extern section disabled
- CC mode set to send/receive

The Stage responds just fine to Note messages.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

You need to assign the CtrlPedal (CC11) to some Morph on the NS, if you want something to happen (on the NS there is no default/pre-assigned destination of the CtrlPedal)

Ahh, thanks that makes sense. It hadn't occurred to me to use the morph as I don't have a physical pedal attached. I'd assumed the NS would just respond to natively to CC11 like the NP2 does. I'll give that a try.
