Introducing the Nord Stage 4 Worship Collection

I’m excited to announce that after months of development, we’re releasing our first Nord Stage 4 native patch collection, the Nord Stage 4 Worship Collection.

I spent months digging deep in the Nord Stage 4’s new architecture, figuring out how to best use its powerful new feature set in a worship context. The end result takes what’s possible on a hardware keyboard to the next level with complex layered patches, fast preset switching, and much, much more.

Features:

• 331 beautifully crafted programs and presets specifically designed for worship keyboardists

• New preset library functionality. Quickly switch in new sounds with FX for completely new combinations

• 146 custom synth presets utilizing both synthesis and sampled functionality

• 42 custom piano presets with full FX per preset

• 25 organ presets with FX and 2 sets of drawbar settings per preset

• The ability to stack up to three synth presets per program

• “No Mistakes” programming for every function. Every single parameter of every preset and program has been mapped to do something musical, making it easy to experiment.

• New pumping and time-based synth patches with tap tempo available.

• Dedicated FX for every preset, allowing never-before-possible sounds

• New reverbed synth and piano sounds utilizing the new reverb algorithms

• New FM synth keys presets built using the new FM engine

• New arpeggiated synths that utilize the new arpeggiator

• Felt upright presets for quiet spots in service

• New velocity-layered samples across all presets

• Hyper-expressive strings and orchestral presets

• Double the number of pad presets from previous collections

• More piano samples than ever before in a Nord Stage 4

• New metronome/piano practice programs, perfect for pre-service practices.

• Mapped modulation wheel and expression wheel for creating massive sweeps and builds

• All programs have Panel 1 and 2 mappings, making it possible to quickly add sounds to build from the intro through the last chorus using a single patch.

• 1+ hour of training on the Nord Stage 4 by Eric Barfield, award-winning keyboard player.

• Zero samples, presets, and patches need to be removed to install the Worship Collection

• Fast, hassle-free installation in under 5 minutes
