I have an Electro 6 and a Stage 4, and I'm frustrated in having to pick what pre-loaded sounds and programs I should remove in order to add new. I understand that once removed they are still available online but I'm wondering if anyone has a list of pre-loaded sounds/programs I can remove to give me more memory? Our band plays mostly 70's rock such as Deep Purple, Montrose, Judas Priest etc. It seems that when I remove a sound, it's needed in a program I use.

That’s very much a personal decision and it’s pretty easy to hook up the Nord Sound Manager and start first with looking into the sample library for “unused” next to the sample which should be a fair amount of them, delete those unless it looks like a sample of interest. That will free up some memory. Then sort the samples by size and delete larger samples that look obscure and not needed such as exotic percussion, orchestral chimes, clarinet, oboe, etc.

You can do the same in the piano section.

Before or after this you can scroll through each program to try it out and see if you want to keep it. If not, delete it.

This type of approach has been helpful to me.
