Sound Manager - multiple NORDs?

Post by Marlowes »

Yes, today I unpacked, cleaned up and installed my "new" (second hand) Piano 88 in my home studio. Unlocked the memory protection. Deleted all the existing pianos and programs. Upgraded the SW to 1.46. Started to download the XL piano versions etc I wanted :thumbup: from Stockholm ... and when I fired up my E3HP connected to the same computer (Mac) I noticed that the Sound Manager only showed the first connected NORD. Sad. Wanted to compare placement of programs etc to make the NORDs as similar as I could. Well, I can use a pen and paper ... but you are supposed to own a bunch of NORDs, so the SW should support that? ;)
(And I am fully aware the most players can not afford one NORD ...)
NE3HP, NP88, NS2, DPP1, NL2X, NL2X, NLA1, NL4, NE5D, NW2 (Collect Them All?), some classic Rolands, Arturias, a Waldorf, a Kurz, a WONOK3, a pile of guitars, a P-bass, loopers, amps and computers ...

Just shooting in the dark ;) what happens if you switch-off/unplug your other Nord and restart the sound manager
I do not think that you can hold separate banks at the same time in the SM, so perhaps you need to switch the other instrument off?

Well, I tried to restart the NORDs and the Sound Manager in several different ways - but the SM just wants to show me the first NORD it finds. I will not try to reboot my computer. You never do that to a Mac. ;)
And the SM 6 manual does not talk about multiple NORDs as far as I know.
I look forward to someone starting a wish-list for SM 7. 8-)
Anyhow, I really enjoy my three red boxes ... I will just stay happy and patient and tweak them one at a time.

In my experience, Sound Manager likes to focus on one thing at a time. And congrats on your Three Nordketeers setup!
