Could anyone share patches with Wavetable or FM synthesis for Nord Stage 2 without the use of samples please?
Well I did not find much here in the forum about this and I would like to try this part of the NS2 synthesizer.
Some cool examples of programs would be EPs, leads, synth bass, synth brass and etc ...

I suggest you look into the Factory Synth programs first, you'll find some good examples there

Consider also that in the NS2 Synth, FM and Wavetable are only related to the Osc, so the waveform generation, the rest (Filter, LFO, ...) are the same as when you use the VA oscillator waveforms.

The NS2 does not have a wavetable oscillator. It has lots of one-cycle waves. That is very different from a wavetable.

From NS2 manual;

(...)powerful oscillator section for the Stage 2 synthesizer . Based on a variable architecture, it provides four different oscillator techniques: Analog, FM (frequency modulation), digital wavetables and sample playback.

I found 1 or 2 FM patches in the factory programs of NS2, but from wavetable I did not find any, if anyone had any tips speak here.

Come on, maxpiano, you know this. Wavetables is a different type of synthesis. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wavetable_synthesis
There is no way of doing anything other than using the waveform as a standard oscillator No interpolating across adjacent waves and so on which is where things start getting interesting.
Do not get me wrong, I am happy that the Nord has a collection of waves, lots of interesting ones, but that is not proper wavetable synthesis.

Just terminology Mr-G, I agree with you but it's not my or evandrolino's fault if at Nord they call them "wavetables"

I recall now that the patch "Walk of Life", that you can download from "NS2 Programs" section of this forum, uses a digital wave for one of the Organs.
