Nord Stage Unofficial User Forum

I have a Nord Stage 88 and a JV1080 for string sounds. However, I have difficulty in programming the Nord to select a certain sound from my JV1080 when selecting a preset. Is there anybody who knows how to put the settings on both instruments? Every time I want to use the JV1080 I have to manually scroll to the right program and there must surely be a better way?

Thank you in advance for any reply!

Hi Berry,

I also have a JV1080 and I can tell this is very easy.
In Program, go in Extern settings (shift + 4). Then scroll to Prog Chance, here you can give the number of the patch you want to use on the JV. I myself mostly use the User Bank (or Preset, as it is called in the manaual), so I just set the correct Prog Change number in the extern section, plus I set Send-on-load to yes. Then save the program, ready you are.

If you also want to change the Bank on the JV you have to use next settings:
BankSel cc00 value: 80 plus BankSel cc32 value: 0 results in JV Bank User
BankSel cc00 value: 81 plus BankSel cc32 value: 0 to 3 results in JV Bank A to D

Also Data Card and Expansioncards can be adressed in the extern settings:
BankSel cc00 value: 82 plus BankSel cc32 value: 0 results in JV Data Card
BankSel cc00 value: 83 plus BankSel cc32 value: 0 results in JV PCM Card
BankSel cc00 value: 84 plus BankSel cc32 value: 0 results in JV Expansion A Bank (patch 1 to 127)
BankSel cc00 value: 84 plus BankSel cc32 value: 1 results in JV Expansion A Bank (patch 128-256)

Hope this helps.
