Is it true on KN5000?

1. It requires you to load the entire MIDI file into memory before it can play the file. But be aware that some Type 1 MIDI files are quite large. On very large files, the Technics won't load the entire file and therefore can't play it.

2. If you have used the auto accompaniment patterns in your recording, you will not get all the notes from the backup parts if you convert the file to a Standard MIDI file. When the file is converted, the backup parts (guitar, bass, drums etc) are recorded as a block chord only!

3. If you decide to create your file as a Standard MIDI file from the start, the Technics will not allow you to use the auto accompaniment patterns. You will have to do pure 16-track recording. It appears that the only way to get the individual parts of the accompaniment as a Standard MIDI file is to hook the Technics up to an external computer or recorder.

If all of three are true, KN is not so good!!!
