If you have opened a couple of Patches in the Editor while the synth wasn’t connected and you want to
download one of the Patches from the Editor to the synth, do either of the following:
1. Right-click on the Patch window background and select a Slot from the bottom of the popup. This
will download your Editor Patch, overwriting the Patch that is currently in the destination Slot.
OR:

A Patch can be stored in two different locations: in the internal memory of the synthesizer, and/or on
disk on the computer. The examples below describes three different ways of saving/storing a Patch.
1. Save a Patch only on the computer by selecting File|Save. File|Save As will let you rename and/or
relocate the Patch before saving to disk. File|Save All will save all open Editor Patches to their origi-
nal locations.
2. Store a Patch in one of the Nord Modular G2 internal memory locations by pressing the S
TORE
but-
ton on the front panel once. The LED above the S
TORE
button will flash. Select a bank (1-32) with
the U

buttons and a memory location (1-128) with the R

. Con-
firm by pressing S
TORE
again. Abort by pressing any other button.
3. To store a Patch in Nord Modular G2 internal memory from the Editor, select Synth|Save In Synth.
Select a memory location and a bank from the Drop-down lists and click ‘Save’. Note that the origi-
nal Patch in the selected memory location (if any) will be overwritten by your new Patch. Make
sure you do not overwrite Patches you want to keep!
There is a memory protect function to minimize the risk of accidentally overwriting Patches. Read more
about the internal memory protection in the section “Memory Prot” on page 81.

To make it easier to define different types of sounds in the
synth’s memory it’s possible to specify a Sound Category for
each Patch. There are 13+2 different categories to choose be-
tween. Select Category from the drop-down list to the right of the Patch Name display box in the Tool-
bar:
