Hi!
Nord Stage newbie here..
Does anyone know if it's possible to get hold of the original Nord Stage 4 programs as .ns4p files?
I've accidentally overwritten a couple so wanted to restore them.

(my OCD has taken over!)
I know you can download the complete factory restore file from the website, but that would replace everything - I don't think you can extract programs from it can you?
In particular A:13 Felt Piano would be great if anyone wanted to share it (I know it's easy to recreate!)

Hi and welcome to NUF.
Just rename the factory restore file in .zip and unzip it, you will find all programs and samples there and you will be able to restore only the ones you need.

Thanks for replying so quickly. What a great Forum
I'm on a mac so not sure how to do this - will investigate! I think this is a winzip functionality?

On Mac is the easiest, if you rename it
to as .zip it can be unzipped by Mac OS itself with a double click
