Reverb on pads, not on piano

Post by jwaymusic »

Hello Nord-lovers,

Maybe a very simple question, with hopefully a simple answer :-)
I use a 2 layer pad and the White Grand.
White grand and Pad 1 in Panel A, Pad 2 in Panel B.
Now I don't want reverb on the White grand, but I do want it on both pads. Is this possible? The reverb now responds to both sounds in Panel A. Can you assign the reverb per sound? Thank you in advance!

Reverb is global per panel, at least in the NS3 and NP5 you are showing as your gear signature. The only way to do what you want is to turn off Reverb in Panel A, perhaps you could use delay for that pad and leave the piano dry.

Just increase the amp release setting on the pad with the Piano. That should give you enough ambience without affecting the White Grand.

Thanks both! Gonna try this!
Still a bit strange it's not possible to change per instrument/ sample...

Nord has been gradually evolving this. NS2 had a single reverb for the entire instrument (both panels), NS3 has a reverb per panel, and the NS4 has reverb assignable to each of the seven parts individually.

Increasing the amp release setting did work very well. Thanks a lot!
