Clavia has announced that development of their editor is discontinued. Thus it is only a matter of time when the editor does not work with future versions of Microsoft Windows. The alternative editor will make sure that you still have an editor when this happens.

How do I install Nomad ?At the moment we do not provide an installer. Just unzip the archive to a desired directory.
How do I start Nomad ?This depends on your operating system. Try if a single or double click (like you start other executables) on the file nomad.jar works. If not you have to start Nomad manually.
Starting Nomad manually:
Note: You have to start nomad from within the directory containing the file nomad.jar otherwise it will not work correctly.
We are monitoring the Nomad discussion forum . You can expect help when you post your problem there.
Can I make feature requests ?Yes, you can ask for features in the Nomad discussion forum. We will consider requests for future releases.
