How to import patches (step by step) to Nord Lead 2x?

Post by hierokon »

Would someone mind walking me through how to add patches to my Nord Lead 2x keyboard -- from how to import, etc. I'm new to this aspect of the Nord and the manual is a little confusing about how to do this and I'm new to this forum.
(Also, if there is already a forum for this feel free to point me in the right direction.)

Thank you for your time!

Hi!

What do you want to add patches from: iPad, Mac or Windows?

A Mac - great!

Yes, you will need a USB-to-MIDI adapter cable.
And this tool: http://www.snoize.com/SysExLibrarian/
This is also very nice to have: http://www.snoize.com/MIDIMonitor/

Then, I can help you with text and pictures from that ... :thumbup:
