You'll Use This - My Stage 2 "Utility" Program

Post by WannitBBBad »

My go-to "utility" program is a good starting point for other programs. This has piano, strings, bass, and B3 organ with drawbars on the mod wheel. Slot A has all but the bass; Slot B has left handed bass and piano/B3 on the right. The memory locations in my Nord Stage 2 EX for the samples used in the program are:
Slot A - 204 - "WarmPad1__CL stereo 2.0"
Slot B - 97 - "FndJazzPlectr_Preamp_ST mono 2.0"

Note that it doesn't matter which sample memory locations you store new samples in your Nord Stage 2, just make sure that after you load a program, that you point the Slot A and/or Slot B Synth to the correct sample in your system. For example, if you load "WarmPad1__CL stereo 2.0" into your sample location 140 (204 in mine) for the program below, then you just need to point Slot A to 140 rather than 204. I'll revise this post as needed based on questions, so feel free to comment.
Take care.

This is terrific info.
However I cannot figure out how to input the sounds on the MP3 into my stage 3. Would love to get your basic Utility and other programs you've posted in this group. Thank you

Hi,

you cannot import a MP3 into the Nord Stage, you have to download the .nsmp files. These can be loaded into the Nord by using Nord Sound Manager. But you also cannot load the Nord Stage 2 program file (.ns2p) into the Stage 3, you must rebuild your own program.

However, I think Wannitbbbad has also created his utility program for the Stage 3, you can find it here:

Just download the file Utility_W.ns3f and transfer it to your Stage 3

I hope all of you are doing well during these times. I thought I would share this program again that I've found useful for quite a few applications. I have over 20 programs available at the site as well. Take care.
