Nord Wave User Manual v1.1
Nord Wave tab
this is where you find the librarian functions of the Nord
Wave Manager. You can work with the Sample Instrument
memory, and the Program memory. these are labeled
Instruments and Programs in the drop down menu. If no
Nord Wave is connected to the computer, the pages and
memory locations will be grayed out.
The actions that take place in the Nord Wave Tab
F
will affect the memories in the actual synthesizer.
The Nord Wave Manager is online with the synth at
all times, so any changes that you perform in the
Manager will immediately be echoed in the synth.
If you e.g. delete a Sample Instrument from the list
in the Nord Wave Manager, that same SI will also be
deleted from the Nord Wave Flash memory, without
any warnings or confirmation dialogs.
Instruments - Programs
Select the memory area that you wish to work with. Instru-
ments is the Sample Instrument area, the Flash memory.
the Programs option is quite un-surprisingly the Program
memory area.
Instruments list
there are 99 possible locations for Sample Instruments in
the Nord Wave Flash memory. the Flash capacity is 180 MB,
and this is of course allocated dynamically. You can have
one Sample Instrument, that contains one sample that
is using up all the memory capacity, or you can have 99
Sample Instruments with 99 samples each, as long as the
combined sizes of these are kept within the 180 MB limit.
When you generate a Sample Instrument from a Project in
the Nord Wave Manager, and download this to the Wave,
this Sample Instrument will be saved at the first available
location in the Flash memory.
If the locations are occupied one after the other in a con-
secutive manner, it will then appear at the end of the list
in the Nord Wave tab. If there is an empty location in the
middle of the list, it will be saved to this location.
the Sample Instrument list may be ordered by position, al-
phanumerical by name, according to sizes, versions or date
of last edit by clicking on the appropriate heading.
Right-click
If you right-click on a Sample Instrument in the list, you will
get the following options:
Delete – this will delete the Sample Instrument from the
Nord Wave Flash memory. any Program in the Nord Wave
that used that particular Sample Instrument will probably
sound very different, since it will be missing an important
component.
