NL 2 sounds dump impossible

Post by frednord »

I can't dump my nord lead 2 sounds to my mac (El Capitan)
Nord lead rom is 1.06.
I press shift and dump keys and press record in the DAW (Reaper) but no datas are transmitted.

Other datas : notes, midi CC data coming from the nord are correctly sent to Reaper so this is not an issue of wrong wiring of the midi wires or Daw preferences.
I made a test with another synth (JP 8000) and the dumped sys datas are correctly recorded in reaper.

It seems to be an issue with the nord.

What can be wrong ?

Hi... what type of MIDI Interface are you using? Have you tried with another app such as Sysex Librarian?

I've just tried sysex librarian and the dump sysex data are received from the Nord so I think it's an issue with Reaper.
What is strange is that I'm abble to dump presets from my JP8000 into Reaper with the same settings.
Thanks for your help, I will investigate on the Reaper side.

I wouldn't use Reaper for sysex, not reliable enough. if you want to handle sysex dumps / backups, use Snoize for mac, find it here https://www.snoize.com/SysExLibrarian/

This is the only utility I'd recommend. for older midi, slow the data rate down a little, that way it fixes any issues.

It is fine with SysExLibrarian :thumbup: but annoying to open another soft to store sysex and paste the data in Reaper.
