Hi all, I just had an i3 delivered, I was under the impression that Arr key & Edit style key pressed while powered on would factory reset? apparently not for this keyboard? both keys work fine when the machine is on, am I missing something?

I think you need to reload from diskette - i'll check my archives

The only OS update is by means of a physical chip replacement.

Cheers

Files and manuals are at the bottom of this page:-
http://www.korgpa.com/support/discontinued-products/korg-i3.html

I have many extra styles for the i3 in a little free database pack called CDK - let me know if you want a copy.
(You will need a WINDOWS PC with a diskette drive)

Cheers

I am having a related issue; sorry for hijacking the thread; if required; I will start a new thread

I found my good old i3 in the basement few days back and decided to bring it back to life. It was not behaving properly initially but after thorough cleaning and factory reset; it apparently is working fine now. However all the arrangements are gone. I do have the initialization disks and their data on my computer; but unfortunately i3's floppy drive is not working anymore. I have hooked up the i3 to my PC through MIDI cables and sending receiving SYSEX is working fine!

Is there any software that can convert PCG, ARR, BSQ, SNG and STY files to SYSEX so I can send them to the i3 via MIDI?

@karmathanever I am interested in your style collection, please send me the software and collection files!

Happy new year!
