Nord Beat 3 and Nord Drum P3 - how to save kit with sequence

Post by estnyboer »

I've been digging through the forums and can't find what must be a simple answer.

I've hooked up my iPad to the P3 with an iConnect MIDI1. Using Nord Beat 3, I have successfully saved a sequence. However, when I load it, it defaults back to kit A1. How do I save a program change so that when I load this sequence it also selects the right kit?

Thank you!

Hi estnyboer!
When you save a song, you can select the program number,
If you open the app or load another song, the app will ask if you want it to change the program..

Hmmm... Ok I will look more closely at the save process - I didn't see how the program numbers (all labeled with a "P") correspond with the drumkit numbers (E 2, F 14, etc).

Hi,
That is how program numbers ‘kits’ are displayed on the Nord drum2, P stands for program.
I quickly checked the manual and update history of the 3P, since OS version 1.24 there are 8 banks (A-H), with 50 kits each. The ND2 also has 8 banks of 50 programs, displayed as P1.01 through P8.50.

So, I bet that if you want the app to use kit E.02 on your 3P, you have to select P5.02 when you’re saving the song..And F.14 is P6.14 etc.

Cheers,
Albert
