Nord User Forum

Hi All,

First post and asking for help already
I was deleting some sounds on the NS4 using the Nord Sound Manager & accidentally deleted the Location (Bank G locations 19 & 20) instead of the Name...
Now those locations dont appear anymore on the Nord, the sound bank goes from 18 to 21. I tried a factory restore, didnt make any difference
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Many thanks in advance

I don't have the Stage 4, but don't worry - it will behave as any other Nord keyboard.

A) Any factory program, preset or sample can be restored from the factory bundle.
B) Empty program or sample slots will be masked or hidden in Nord Sound Manager as long as you don't use library view. Just for a better overview what's there. But have a look onto your instrument: Program places aren't gone.

Thank you for the reply FZiegler, much appreciated. I've now noticed that bank locaions *9 & *0 dont exist on any bank. Maybe it was like this all along & I didn't notice If anyone else has an NS4 & can check theirs that'd be great. I may well go back to the store & look at their demo model.

Non need to go to the store, just check your NS4 manual, you'll find the confirmation there

I wasn't sure about what you meant by 'sound locations'.

Right, if programs are concerned: There are 8 buttons for program selection, so there are probably just programs *1..*8 in a row. Didn't come to my mind in the first place.

Naming conventions may be different for presets and samples, though.

As suggested I've now read the manual and the answer does indeed lie in the top right corner of Page 40. Thank you.
