Hi Donny & Jupiter:
I concur that the chord lag problems experienced in earlier KN6000 OS versions seem to be resolved in version 6. I played a KN6000 (almost a year ago) with an earlier OS version and it did have the troublesome chord lag problem you describe. I just recently played a KN6000 (with the current version 6 OS installed) and it does not have the chord lag problem. Another feature (which is important to me) which version 6 fixes is 'rootless chord' recognition. Earlier KN6000 OS versions did not recognize 'rootless chord' voicings correctly, but version 6 implements 'rootless chord' recognition correctly now.

I myself am interested in eventually upgrading from my KN5000 (which I still love and play everyday professionally) to the KN6000 but am hesitating because of the (hours/weeks?) of work and time necessary to transfer and convert all my 100's of custom song styles residing on my KN5000 hard drive to the KN6000 (optional)HD-SX6 hard drive.

Does anybody here have the Keysoft Service HD-SX6 Hard Drive installed in their KN6000? Anyone here ever transfered data from the KN5000 hard drive to the KN6000 hard drive? Is this process easy? I am interested in the KN6000 but will need the Hard Drive too.
