Hey Ketroners!
Nobody wants to talk about it?
Is it something wrong with it?I think it's wonderful!
Vio

Hi Vio,
great to hear you're pleased with it.
Did you add it to an SD1 or SD1+???

Hey!
I have SD1+ with 4.0c OS.It wasn't necesary any hardware changing.Everything was easy and smooth.
I really like the new guitars..at least the one with bending sounds like most of the recent arangers on the market do.
I wonder if there is any way to have all this new sounds or combinations direct in the main sound block...to get rid of time of louding.

Hi Vio,
I only have 4b in mine at the moment. Did you have to update a Chip??

Hey Rikki
First of all OS version is not so important,if it's more than 4.0.Then you have to check your EPROM version like this:
To test your EPROM version:-
* Press DISK.
* Press UTILITIES (F8).
* Press DISK CONTROL (F8).

If release is less than 5.0 you will need new ERPOM chip.So a hardware intervention.
If is more than 5.0 ,everything ok,no more harware changing,then you just order EXP and install in SD1.It's very easy to copy all the files, but will need PC cable cause there are a lot of files and you can't use floppy to copy them.
Personal I have Eprom v5.03.

Hi Vio,
thank you for the information.
I did eventually manage to get the correct pc cable. Don M posted me his from the USA. My supplier here in Aust. didn't have them till recently.
Even managed to get an adapter that allows me to use it via usb as neither of my pc's have a serial port.

I'll check my eprom. I'd be a bit nervous about changing chips as my sd's still under warranty. My husband wouldn't be too impressed if I blew up last years Xmas present haa haa.

thanks again

best wishes
Rikki

Hi Vio,
I've got 5.4.
What sort of stuff have you now got, that you didn't have prior to the expansion.

Hey Rikki
My Eprom is 5.3, sorry not 5.03.
It's looking like yours is perfect.So all you have to do is to order the software from
AJ at ketron_tech@yahoo.com
But like I said you need to heve the cable and the conection with PC working.I'm using a USB to Serial Adaptor,cause I don't have a serial port on my lap either.

Hey!
The new improved EEROM version will make your keyboard faster..it's absolutly necesary for a fast loading of styles,midis and MSP intruments...or waves.
You may contact AJ at ketron_tech@yahoo.com about it.
Vio

Hey Ketroners!
So...there are no more comments about EXP?
I'm really curios about your opinions.
