Congrats, and good luck with your new investment Rikki.
Nice to see you're still going strong.

Looking forward to read your comments about it when you have got the time to explore it.
Guess it will be some sleepless nights ahead. wink
Myself, I've put my wallet into the freezer just to keep it cold for a while, at least 'till end of the summer..... cool

Hi
Thank you everyone.
Been a long day,, 5 hr trip to pick it up, but well worth it, or at least or me it was,
So far I've really only had the time to unpack it, play thru the demo's, ( which sound brilliant ) and check out some of the styles.
It sounds great.
Tomorrow I 'll get a lot more time to spend on it.

Hi Guys,
I've got a minor problem. Hopefully it 's only a bug, I haven't had a chance to update yet.

I sent my "User "styles to a few of the members ( about 20 or so) quite a few of those were PSR conversions.
I was playing thru them yesterday, and the drum tracks were sounding a bit off.
especially on the English Waltz.
Took a closer look and noticed the drums were defaulting to Gm Kits instead of the XG Kits,
Edited the style to XG Kit saved it. Worked perfectly till I switched the keyboard off, when I turned it back on , back to Gm kit.

Did anybody else pick up on some weird drum sounds? Ie did yours default to Gm kit too.
Possibly some in the Song and User folders.

Anyway, going to update hopefully it fixes it.

I believe you have to unlock the lock tab in save mode.

I also had problems with Tuning of Smf,and when I saved edits,the file deleted my original and replaced it with a one measure disaster..There are some random quirks..

This board is version 1.2.0

Hi Fran
Thank you.
I beleive you're referring to playing songs or midifiles?
I wasn't terribly clear.
My problem is with the styles themselves when using the Gm/ XG banks for style tracks.
When I converted them across from PSR to korg ( I do them manually from a midifile) I used the XG drum kits in the pa3x so that I would have to do minimal editing of the drums.
Everything worked fine in the pa3x.

In the pa4x, it doesn' t appear to be recognising the bank changes in the Gm/ XG section of sounds. I go into the style , pick the XG drumkit or XG instrument. Write the style. Everything is ok.
When I switch off and go back to the style, the XG drumkit is now a Gm drumkit, an XG guitar is a Gm guitar.
Go back to edit mode, and drum track is showing a Gm piano

Trk : Drum Acoustic Piano. GM. Gm-piano. 127.000.000. ( which is actually the bank change for the XG drum kit )


Either there is something weird going on in my keyboard, or else nobody has picked it up because who would really bother using XG kits and sounds ( except me for conversions haha)

But , I beleive you were have the problem with the lock for songs, not style editing ?

Hi
Me again.
Antony over on korg forums confirmed it is a bug, thank goodness , and not my keyboard. Big relief . Try explaining to hubby we need to do another 5 hr road trip to take it back to get fixed. Would not have been good. Haha

Anyway I have the option of copying the XG kits into a user bank and the styles will play back correctly. Not ideal, but a good temporary solution till they fix the bug.

Other than that, the keyboard sounds brilliant.
