This is not a problem of your nose. The architecture of NS3 and NS4 are quite different. There is no way for automatic conversion. Has always been that way with the different generations of Nord instruments (except NS2 and NS2ex). Sorry.

But that way, you immediately learn to use the knobs, faders and buttons

If it's sample conversion (nsmp3 to nsmp4) then it's a different story : automatic conversion in the NSM.
If it's program conversion, then indeed, there is no way to convert from 3 to 4. But you can view the parameters of the ns3f file in the Nord File Viewer.

Thanks, cookie, for jumping in! Indeed, Ron asked for samples. Sooo, samples can be converted automatically by NSM as long as they are yours or 3rd party. Samples from Nord won't be converted but must be retrieved from the Nord Sample Library V4. As far as I understood.

Thanx for the reply.I am new to the Stage 4 but it seems intuitive.....I really enjoy taking raw samples and creating my own presets and programs etc......I AM interested in any Genesis samples, as Tony banks makes the keyboard world go round.....

Hi, you may search for “Genesis” on this forum, or search for the same in the Nord User Sounds database https://nordusersounds.com/files by entering “Genesis” in the Name or Comment parts of the Files section
