Congratulations on your first Nord!

All, I would suggest stepping through the many programs that came with your Stage 4. If you find one close to what you want, you can make adjustments to it and save it as another program. Simply adjusting the Env Filter FREQ to strings and other synth sounds can yield some nice results in creating subtle background pads.

Seven pads by BenjaminBerghahn are posted at nord-user-samples-nsmp-nsmp3-nsmp4-file ... 21323.html that you can try out. The pads are NSMP samples renamed as NSMP3. Some NS4 owners have posted success loading renamed files using the Nord Sound Manager.

At the link below I've posted a NSMP4 sample you can try out; play around with the synth settings such as Env Filter FREQ to see what you can create. The attached mp3s from the post provide examples of the tonal range of the sample simply by adjusting the FREQ setting after having the sound set up with Release and other settings desired. Good luck to you!

Simply in reply to your request - if you are looking for worship pads, I made a whole bank from my own professionally recorded samples from analog synths. Reach out it you are interested. I will not post the link here as advertisement is not allowed. You are very welcome to email me. Ben Allen. Godisopen@gmail.com

Hey guys,
It ist also my First Nord Stage and i am a Little bit overwhelmed by the many things you can do. I was ask to cover the Bass and Pad Sounds for Phenomena from hillsong and am now struggeling with it. I am new to this whole world of synths and every attempt sounds a little bit weird. I saw many people here using samples, but is it also even possible to create Sounds like that specific?
(I already started to learn with syntorial2 but it didn‘t help so far ‚:) )
Thank you i really look forward to learn about the stage4 with you :D

Yes, the synth is very capable without the need for samples. I would suggest stepping through the synth presets, finding one you like, and then playing around with the filter settings to hear how each affect the sound.

Marc Larochelle (My Keys To Music) will be posting a course soon that I'm sure will be worthwhile, and he has a free course on synth fundamentals here. As the NS4 synth engine is based on the Wave 2, I think you'd find it helpful to also watch some of his videos of the Wave 2 on YouTube. Good luck to you.
