When developing Nord Stage, Clavia aimed to make external control an integrat-
ed feature of the instrument, where all the essential external MIDI control func-
tions would be as accessible and easy to use as the functions and parameters for
the built-in instruments. That's what you get in the Extern section.
The Extern in most cases behaves like the internal instruments. For example, it is
enabled and assigned a keyboard zone in the same way. It has a multi-purpose Pa-
rameter knob, which is used to send MIDI Volume, Program Change and Contin-
uous Controller messages. You select the current Parameter focus with the

There are two Extern sections, one for each panel. You can use Keyboard Zones to create splits and
layers just like for the internal instruments. If you set the Extern section to only play in the LO Zone,
the external instrument will only respond to notes played in this Zone. In other words, it works trans-
parently together with the built-in instruments!
