Sitar sample
Is there a Sitar sample available?  I am new to the Stage 3 and I am on the learning curve.  I'm hoping one would be available for Strawberry Fields, Signed Sealed Delivered and other songs.

Re: Sitar sample
The search function works well checking out the different groups of the Nord User Forum. Here's one I found quickly:  nord-user-samples-nsmp-samples-f14/sita ... itar#p8661

Re: Sitar sample
Great thanks.  I did download the sample and convert it.  It seems to have a sweet spot around middle C.  And it sounds better with the sustain pedal.  I couldn’t find a way to keep the sustain pedal on automatically if it is possible.  One less thing to think about.  Thanks again.

Hey SteveM: To automatically sustain a synth sound on NS3, press the KB HOLD key (turns on Keyboard Hold). Then save with the program.SteveM wrote:Great thanks. I couldn’t find a way to keep the sustain pedal on automatically if it is possible. One less thing to think about. Thanks again.

Re: Sitar sample
Another option is to set the MOD ENV and AMP Release levels around 2 o'clock and adjust as needed from there. Take care

Re: Sitar sample
Maybe bumping up the AmpEnv release will achieve a similar effect. Or a bit of reverb. With sustain pedal or hold you may run into some undesirable polyphony effects.SteveM wrote: I couldn’t find a way to keep the sustain pedal on automatically if it is possible.
