Thanks for your input. It's always comforting to know that a problem's not unique.

I don't have the KN7000 but I'm sure they will correct this problem by upgrading the O/S. Don't forgot the KN6000 as about 7 version of upgrade and the KN5000, 10 !!!

Hey Willum,
Sorry for late reply - but in answer to your question, yes I do!
Thing is, my main interest lies in jazz/swing/bossa nova and of the many hundreds of styles downloaded over the years the bulk have been discarded either cos they don't fall into that category (8 beats especially) or those that call themselves jazz etc are bland to boring - notably Yamaha. I had a PSR8000 for just under a year and for me there was only one decent style in the thing and the back up style disks from Yahama were no better, for instance too many had the same bass line and drums in each variation and I came to the conclusion that the stylist designers were either too lazy or just incabable of doing any better.
No doubt in my mind that the best stylists come from Korg and Technics, so my collection of floppies comes down to about 20. So anyone like to buy the SD gubbins in my 7000?

Ogre,
I am sure grandpa Doug would be looking for a senior discount. Us old folks need all the help we can get. Specialy with the allowance Doug gets from Ruthie.

Oh Fran your'e bringing tears to my eyes. Poor old Gramps. But at my age (74and three quarters) I need as much as I can get so I think I'd best withdraw my offer. Who knows, I may one day get around to reading the manual and start using the thing.

Peter, I really think it would be worthwhile for you to spend a little time getting to know the basic operation of your SD card and transfer your floppies to a card. Loading time is SO MUCH improved over the floppy disc.
Trust Me - I'm an old codger like you
However, I suppose it really depends on how often you actually use the styles you have on floppy, as opposed to the KN7000 built-in styles.

Willum,
You've convinced me. After re-reading your paper, the manual will be dusted off and diligently perused!

Peter,

If you have not visited Cees Web page, you should. He has a very good tutoral on organizing the SD.
Once you set up a system, you will never want to return to floppies. Much faster and everything is ready to load in seconds.
