NTERNAL MEMORY
The Operating System, Programs and Piano samples in Nord Stage EX are stored in a so-called Flash
memory. A Flash memory keeps the data also when the power is shut off. Another big advantage is
that you can replace data in the Flash memory at any time. This means that you will be able to down-
load OS upgrades and Programs to your Nord Stage EX from a computer or sequencer without need-
ing to replace or add any new hardware. Nord Stage EX also features a USB port for quick and easy
download of new Piano instrument samples. The total capacity of the Flash memory is 256 MB in the
Stage EX.
The internal sound memory of Nord Stage consists of 21 Banks holding 6 Programs each for a total
of 126 Programs. In addition there are the two Live buffer memories, which will continuously store
any changes as they are made, and remember these settings after the power is shut off.

ACTORY PRESETS
All factory Programs of Nord Stage EX can be replaced. To make sure you don't accidentally over-
write Programs you want to keep, it's a good idea to back up your sounds regularly on a computer or
on a hardware sequencer that can record and play back MIDI SysEx. data. For information on how
to back up Programs please refer to
available with the Nord Sound Manager.
