The problem is when you play the Italian Grand FAz XL with the sustain pedal activated. sustain tuning is modifying the sound of the samples in these two notes F4 and F # 4 ...

[Mr_-G-]

Sounds like like a loop mismatch or some resonance during the sustain that interferes with the original sound.
It is noticeable in the 3rd and 4th notes of the mp3. I do not think you can do much about it other than reporting it to Clavia and hope they can/will edit the sample.

As i open the NS3 to clean contacts (a lot of times...for all my Nords ) the ribbon to the mother board is very short and hard to reconnect..
a few centimeters more would be nice ...

The Stage 3 has been available for only 18 months...! What the hell are you doing that it requires cleaning the contacts already?

I’ve played maybe two hundred shows with my Electro 2, and it’s fourteen years old, and I’ve never once had to clean the key contacts...!

Having had my NS3 compact from day one, i had to open it up and re-lubricate all squeaky Sharps, so the high chance of bad quality of shitty Fatar parts might be a case.

As a piano technician i can say there is nothing wrong with those notes played.
Even in real pianos with pedal depressed you hear the unison beats with sympathetic resonance of higher strings.

Hello to all,

I am happy that I found this great forum. I am new to NORD, my NS3C baby is three days old. I read a lot in this forum and found in this topic (List of Nord Stage 3 known issues/bugs) also COPY/PASTE problem in OS2.0. I have OS2.02 and following issue:

I am copying a Program 1 to Program 5 with
1. holding MONITOR/COPY PANEL and pressing the Program 1 button (display: COPY TO CLIPBOARD)
2. holding SHIFT and pressing the MONITOR/COPY PANEL together with Program 5 button (display: PASTE FROM CLIPBOARD)

Result:
The Program 1 is not copyied to Program 5.

After pressing STORE button twice the Program 1 was copyied to Program 5 but without it's name.
This is not mentioned in User Manual and also the there is not an advice e.g. blinking STORE Led that an additional action is missing/necessary.....

Do you have also this issue?


[EDIT]: Now I see that there is a small symbol 'E' on the display when a Program was changed end not saved, so I am taking this point back. It remains that it is not mentioned in the actual User Manual (ver 1.6x).

Working with the Sound Manager ver.7.42 and NS3C ver. 2.02, I see that the Organs are not correctly displayed in the Manager Info pane on right side:

SoundManager_InfoPane.PNG (155.69 KiB) Viewed 2463 times

The Pianos and Synth sounds are displayed correctly.

Is this an intention?
