Nord Drum 3P with DSI TEMPEST

Post by Pidcin »

Hey, does anyone own both of these ? Could someone kindly explain how to connect the drum 3p with the tempest ? I would like to use the Nord drum to trigger the sounds from the tempest ? Since the tempest has a sequencer in it , so I could record and playback the tempest sounds by using the Nord drum as a glorified controller

I have a Tempest and use an external Electronic Drumkit(Yamaha DTXpress)to trigger sounds on the Tempest,this is the same process as you wish to do with the ND/Tempest

You'll need to connect a Midi cable from Nord Drum-Midi Out to Tempest Midi In

Then you will need to assign the Nord Drum to the same Global Midi channel as the Tempest and then assign the Pad Midi note numbers on the Nord drum to match the Tempest pad note numbers.

I have no experience with the Nord Drum directly so not sure if you can change the Midi note number assignments of the Pads directly or if they are fixed to set note numbers,if they are fixed on the ND then you can change the Note numbers of the Pads on the Tempest in the system menus pages,change them to match the Nords Note assignments you should then be able to trigger the sounds on the tempest from the ND pads
