I would suggest downloading Nord Sound Manager v7.84 (latest version) that is capable of converting user-created NSMP files to NSMP4 format for the Stage 4. In NSM, I usually go to the Samples tab, select "Organize" mode for viewing all open memory locations, and then "drag-n-drop" the NSMP sample where I want it. NSM should prompt you that the file is in the wrong format and ask if you want to convert it to NSMP4 format. I hope this helps, good luck!

Even using v7.84 and my NS4, I still get "file is not supported on this instrument".
Any ideas?

If you tried the operation using "drag-n-drop" and got that result, I would suggest reporting the problem to Nord support at www.nordkeyboards.com/support. Good luck!

Yes i also want them in my Stage 4. Sounds Great in my Stage 2. It’s not working with the latest soundmanager unfortunately.

I would suggest reporting the bug to Nord Support as it appears from other comments that the latest 2 NSM versions aren't hitting the mark. NSMP files that could convert to NSMP4 format on the Piano 5 last year won't convert with the NSM 7.84. As a work-around, some members have noted success with simply renaming the *.NSMP file to *.NSMP3 and loading the renamed file. Good luck to you.

Strat_Pad_W.nsmp > Strat_Pad_W.nsmp3
I attempted the renaming to *.nsmp3. Still declined to import. "is not supported by this instrument".

I can't say it will work, but you could try loading the NSMP3 file using a version of Nord Sound Manager prior to v7.82. Good luck to you!

Has anyone successfully loaded these into their NS4 yet?
