EXTERN
EXTERN MODE
Advanced control of external MIDI instruments is
an integrated feature of the Nord Stage 4. By using
the EXTERN Mode of the Synth Section, all essential
external MIDI functions are made available for control
from the Synth display, dials and other controls.
A Layer set to Extern behaves much like a Layer set
to Samples or Analog, in that it is turned on or off and
assigned to a keyboard zone in the same way. Pitch Stick and Sustain
Pedal assignments are also set up as usual.
MIDI channel settings for each Extern Layer are found in the MIDI menu
while settings for Program Change, Continuous Controllers (CC) and
other MIDI functionality is accessed via the EXTERN menu (read more
on page 61). These settings can also be used for sending MIDI
messages such as Program Change automatically to external units
when programs are changed locally.
i Extern MIDI Channel settings are shared for all Programs on the
Nord Stage 4, while all settings in the Extern menu are stored per
Program.
SETTING UP
1 Connect a MIDI cable from the Nord Stage 4 MIDI Out to the
MIDI In on the external device, which could be a rack synth unit, a
computer interface or some other unit with a MIDI In port.
2 Hold SHIFT and press MIDI (Program 7 button) to access the MIDI
menu.
3 Use the PAGE 3/4buttons to access the “Extern Channel” page.
4 Use the Program 1-3 soft buttons for selecting the appropriate
Extern Layer; A, B or C.
5 Use the PROGRAM Dial to select the transmitting MIDI channel (1-
16) which should be used. Press EXIT (Shift) to leave the menu.
6 Set the external instrument to receive on the MIDI channel defined
in the previous step.
USING THE EXTERN SECTION
ACTIVATING
Make sure the Synth Section is turned ON. Select the Layer (A, B or
C) which should be set to control external units, and press EXTERN
(Shift+Synth Mode).
OCTAVE SHIFT
MIDI sent from a Layer set to Extern can be
octave shifted up or down, which is done by
transposing sent MIDI Notes according to
the number of octaves up or down that has
been set.
The shift range depends on the total note range of the external
instrument, and the range of the keyboard zone(s) that the external
instrument is currently assigned to.
KEYBOARD ZONES
Keyboard zones can be used for split and layered setups just like for
internal sounds. As an example, if an Extern Layer is assigned to only
play in zones 1 and 2, the external instrument will only respond to notes
played in these zones.
i See the section about Split functionality on page 38 for
information on how to set up and use keyboard zones.
There can be up to three Extern Layers – if all Synth Layers are set to
Extern – but note that Layers set to Extern cannot be used for internal
Synth sounds.
PITCH STICK AND SUSTAIN PEDAL MESSAGES
Hold SHIFT and press SUSTPED/PSTICK for the focused Extern Layer
to determine whether sustain pedal and/or pitch bend messages
should be sent via the Extern MIDI channel, as indicated by the
SUSTPED and PSTICK LEDs.
