Supported instruments

Only two models have been tested for everything: the Nord Stage 4 and the Nord Stage 3. On the Stage 2, reading files and copying from the keyboard have been tested; sending, deleting and backing up have not. Nothing has been tested on any other model yet.

The same table is on the Compatibility page in the app.

If you have a model marked ●, run Check my Nord. It only reads from the keyboard. Share results to help opens a pre-filled issue on GitHub. That is what turns a ● into a ✓.

Some models can only be read from a connected keyboard for now:

  • Import a file… takes Stage 4, 3 and 2 programs.
  • Choose a folder… reads Stage 4 and Electro 6 programs, plus presets, samples, pianos and .ns4b backups.

See File types.

A program can only be sent to the model it was made for. A Stage 2 or 3 program can be converted into a Stage 4 one; see Convert to Stage 4.
