This is the right place if your topic concerns different Nord Keyboards, you are not sure which one is the right one for you, etc.

If not using a layer can you assign no sample?

Hello

Referring to Nord Piano 5 but presumably applies to other models, give or take. Where you're not using a layer in a program, using the sample synth only for example, can you assign nothing to the unused layer?

Otherwise when you use Sound Manager to backup a program as a bundle it brings unnecessary data with it. In the case of an XL piano sound accidently left selected but unused, for example, it can be a very large file.

Thanks
Jim

Yeah that seems like the best workaround. :thumbup:

I use the clavinet for this situation. I believe it uses the least memory.
