Hey everyone.

I was trying to load an external sample on my kronos and I really don't know what I did there but somehow a lot of programs don't make any sound now.
Some of my set lists are gone too, but the main problem is that for example, the first piano sounds are still there to select , but don't maky any sound. and whichever of those non-sounding samples I have used in a setlist, shows the message 'samples not loaded' (which is how I realized I must have done something awful in the first place.)

Where could those sounds be? Do I have to restore the factory settings?

Kronos lesson 1: Always back up your work esp BEFORE you start loading samples and/or 3rd party samples.

I assume you would like your Programs/Combis back.

Since you haven't backed up, go to DISK. See Factory. Open it.
Load the KSC file

Your Set List work will be gone , from what I read

You probably loaded an entire pcg file, thereby overwriting many existing program banks and set lists.

If you did not make a backup of your own programs with Save All or Save PCG, that may be lost. But factory presets can be restored with Preload.pcg.

In the future when loading programs, you can specify bank locations without overwriting others.

I did choose a location (an empty one) and I did back up this morning before I tried to do anything. I tried to load the back up but it's still the same. That's why I am very confused about all this! Is there a way I can keep anything of what I've created before restoring?

It turns out the backup did work. It probably needed that restart. thanks for replying though !
