Hi Mike,

concerning your Problems with the SD40:

1. RAM Sounds are partly included at the SD40. The advantage is that you allways have access to this sounds. At SD7 it was only possible to laod 2 of RAM - Sounds at the same time with loading time. Same for the Styles. The soundboard is different to the SD7.

2. Using SD 40 as a Sound Card on PC: Connect a midi cable, press Menu, select MIDI on Display, tap on "COMPUTER&SEQUENCER" preset. If you want to make the midi Connection with USB-Cable, tap on "USB Midi" at the Display.

3. Checking the style selection before, avoids disappoimtment. On the other side, it is possible to include nearly the whole Ketron style library from the former instruments. With the help of the Modeling Function, you can modify the internal stlyes without programming. This makes the styles to your "own styles".

4. The DJ Function was not intended at the SD 40. This is the area of the Midjay Pro, together with the possibility to add an internal Hard Disk for playing a huge amount of files. Same for Launchpad, which will be a Special Feature on SD9.

5. Updating the SD 40 will be done by OS and USB stick. If you want to know about new updates...submit the Newsletter at Ketron.it.

Many Greetings

Ketronbernie
