Nord Organ 3 Update Not Possible for NS4/NE6

[SuperStage]

I spent :30 with The Nord Organ 3 at NAMM today and posted some feedback and photos in The Nord Organ forum.
I asked the Nord product specialist if the new organ and amp sim models would be available as a software update to the NS4 and NE6 and he said "No, I don't believe the current architecture will support it". . I hope he is wrong so I can stop using my Neo Vent.

Here's the link to the post.

Yes we already discussed in another thread that this would be unlikely, as it never happened in the past (e.g. NS2 didn't get the C2D engine) viewtopic.php?t=26198&start=20

I think you should maybe change the title into "Nord Organ 3 Update for NS4/NE6 not possible"

Thanks for the suggestion. Done!

hi

NS3 in the message, I suppose a typo ?

The question to Nord could only result in this answer.
Clearly, Nord transitioned to a new architecture with Nord Wave, then with Piano 5 bringing Sample nsmp v4.
After Wave 2 and Stage 4 all pianos share the same reverbs, FX and the “per layer” implementation.
This means, technically (imho, not knowing what DSP chips are at work here) the new Organ engine is just an enhancement to the old engine, mainly the Leslie emulation.

So yes, Electro 6 architecture probably does not allow for an update.
Stage 4 architecture would seem (seem!) possible, but as already mentioned before Nord didn’t give the C2D engine to Stage 2 back in the day. Only Stage 3 received the new engine.

At this day, it seems that the boards share more of the same architecture so maybe Nord will surprise us!

I hope Nord rewards anyone who’s spent $$$$ on a NS4 with a software update withe the new organ and Leslie sim if at all possible. DB9 cancel would also be a nice gift along with fixes for the long list of MIDI bugs.
