Nord Lead 3 Sound Manager issue

Postby chriselement » 19 Sep 2017, 05:41

Hey guys, im having an issue transferring sound banks from my Pc (Windows 7) to my Nord Lead 3, by using the Sound Manager (Version 1.02)

As soon as I try to transfer a sound bank to the Nord lead, I see that the Midi signal is lighting up, so I know that signal between the 2 is good to go, but after it is done transfering, I dont see the bank on the Nord Lead 3 at all.

Anyone ever have an issue with this? Any help would be greatly appreciated, driving me crazy

Sincerely
NordNoob

I dont think that Nord Sound Manager Supports the Nord Lead 3, have already tried that

Ouch... sorry, my mistake, NL3 has its own Sound Manager :oops:
have you tried with different MIDI cables and/or different computer?
Or maybe NL3 has a Memory Protect that you need to disable first?

Thanks for the quick reply back. I have disabled Memory Protect, and through the Nord Lead3 sound manager, when sending the sysex bank to the Nord lead 3, I see on the Nord Lead 3 the Midi in light flashing so I know that I think it is going to it, however when checking on the Nl3, it is as if the bank did not transfer.

Maybe I have a setting wrong on the nl3, im sure its something very minor but driving me crazy lol. These are the midi settings on the nl3

Im guessing that the Nord Sound Manager (1.02) works as it opens up on my Windows 7 Desktop. As it opens the file & is ready to transfer to the Nl3. Also the Nl3 flashes when it says that it is transfering. Below are the steps I have taken.

Synth Menu
Program Receive Bank:1 > Erase

Upon erasing the menu says
Prog. Bank 1
Waiting for Dump

I then go on the Nord Sound Manager and click

Download Programs
Set the nord lead 3 in program receive (ok)

The program then says sending program and the light on the midi in of the nord lead3 flashes

Sorry, I'd misread and thought you were referring to the Nord STAGE 3. Unfortunately, I don't see a way to delete a post on this board, so I edited it instead. :oops:

Maybe I ask a silly/useless question here but... are you trying to load Programs or Performances?

As a test, also, have you tried to Upload a bank from NL3 to the PC? Or Download just a single Program, not a Bank?
