Hey there.

2 days ago I purchased NS4 as an upgrade from NS3 and I can't believe that keyboard is 2 years old without Extern mode fix.

Its clear that all the problems you mention are working as intended in nord stage 3 but remain UNFIXED in NS4.

Id suggest you put well written initial post in "wish list for future stage patches."

Hi ! I got exactly same problem and it's awfull for live playing with midi connected : CC11 message can't be desabled, even if External part is off. When there is a Extern part on or off, ctrl pedal send CC11.
NS4 is a very good sounding keyboard, but coming from the NS2 wich is 15 year old, NS2 was far better concerning ergonomic.
It must be reported as a bug.

Discover another problem today on samples : using Synthpad 1 and 2 samples, you can't disable velocity action. With Velocity disabled on the synth part, when you play soft middle or hard, sound is changing, volume too (Filter is off of course).

Got other important problems with MIDI, using Aux KB with big backwards on NS4 compared to NS2 for playing live with other keyboards connected with MIDI : viewtopic.php?t=23741
I wrote it on the Bug and Wish list.

If someone find solutions...

Bests regards
