I made my first wave recording from the Kn7000 today. However the recording when played back through the KN exhibited some thumps or pops which seemed to increase as the play back progressed. At one point there was a tiny loss of data (It sort of sounded like someone had made the pick up jump on a LP player) The sound itself was fine and just as good as the original. Whilst I can put up with a few pops during play back. The recording really isnt clean enough to burn a CD. Has anyone else experienced this and found out a possible cause, like possibly another programme running at the same time and interefering weith the recording process. Perhaps someone could point me in the right direction. Many thanks
Tom C

Hello,
I had the same problem..
I changed from Windows Me to Windows XP and now it is a lot better. I still have some
thumps or pops but not as much as before.
I tried everything but I didn't find a solution.
Greetings,
Alain

No more jumps and pops...I deinstalled Norton Internet Security 2002 and the problem is terminated.
But I have no more Antivirus program running. Maybe another program will not give any problems.

it is unrealistic to expect to record clean digital audio with background tasks reading or writing from the hard disk.

I'm running XP Pro and have no problems whatsoever with the audio recorder, I would suggest you try stopping all programs running in the background first if you are having problems. I have no interference whatsoever on playback of recorded music and audio even though I have McAfee Firewall Plus and virus protection running in the background.. But I do have a very fast processor and 500MB of RAM, perhaps this helps.. who knows.. all I can say is that it all works rather well and far better than I ever expected. I played my first gig with the 7000 on Sunday using exactly the same settings on my mixing desk as were used the night before with the KN6000 (in the same venue) everyone of my regulars liked the sound qualities of the new keyboard and said it was " A fuller, more mellow sound"

Hi Tom, I had a load of trouble with my first recordings, and still have, with one of my PCs - others are now OK. As has been said by others, it is best to disable most background programs before starting any recording.
My experiences are on the Forum here, if they are of any interest. http://www.synthzone.com/ubbs/Forum25/HTML/000928.html
