Rob
Have been busy this week (writing tons of 'C' code) but last night had a go at playing the new Steinway..I ike it very much! Great job...I also need to get a HS-1h.
Sweetwater has one in stock, so today I may get time to run over & pick it up.
There is 3 sounds on the download. Grand Piano RX2, Steinway FF MF, and Steinway FF. Looks like the Steinway FF MF is the best for the PA2.
I also still like the RX2.
Keith, Great demo, thanks for sharing it with us.
I am working on perfecting the song 'Somewhere In Time' and when I get it right, I will post a demo using Rob's new piano, Exp Violin and Rikki's Orchestral Piano style.

Thanks Lee,
Yes i forgot to mention that I saved all my user sounds in USER01 as follows:
GrandPianoRX 2 - These are the mods I did last year to Korg's GrandPiano RX sound, making it more touch sensitive and adding damper resonance. There are no new samples loaded. There is a tutorial article from me on this. Until the Steinway arrived, this was my favourite piano on the Pa2x.
Steinway FF - This is the sound is 34 Mbytes using only Steinway samples recorded FF, so the notes are all very percussive with lots of resonance. The .SET file for the Pa800 only loads these samples.
Steinway FF MF - This sound is the 71 Mbyte layered sound using Steinway samples recorded FF and MF. I also had access to a set of Steinway samples recorded PP but they were too quiet to use in practice. The .SET file for the Pa2x loads this sound and all the samples. I deleted this sound on the Pa800 version of the .SET file because there is not space on a standard Pa800 for all the samples.
I3 Strings RS - This is a version of the Korg I3 strings sound but it is toned down to make it sound smoother to my ears when layered as a PAD with a piano sound. I used to use this with GrandPianoRX 2, but it is not necessary with the Steinway piano because the Steinway samples have a lot of resonance and chorus, and adding more strings just makes the sound very muddy.
Best regards,
Rob |

You trully are a great guy and do not forget: this for you was an experiment, after this you will be able to make it better for yourself if you like. I am sure people can give you comments for it.

Hi Rob,
I once again thank you so very much for working on such a project and then finishing the same with success
However, as informed earlier as well by a member, the links on IA website seem to give an error as quoted below:
Quote: |
Error: Your session ID does not match the session ID for this download link. If you are following this link from our site, please report it to the admin.. If you believe this to be in error, please quote the above error and report this to the admin
|
Could this be please looked into so that we may be ale to download the set prepared for Pa800?
Kind Regards,
Umair |

Hi umanid
I'm not sure the problem is on my end any more. When I installed the download system there where configuration issues, but all that's sorted now and all the logs say that everything is working fine. Between the two downloads 90 people have downloaded the Piano.
Can you clear out your temporary internet files / Cookies and try again. You might have something in there from the back when the download system was launched and originally configured wrong.
I also cannot reproduce your problems on my end at this stage.
Kind Regards.
Sharp. |

SOLUTION
The download problem is a very simple problem. The reason why people cannot click on download, is because they entered via a URL and not directly by themselves.
Here is the solution:
1. Go to the URL provided by Rob: http://www.irishacts.com/downloads/index.php?dlid=156
Do NOT click on download !
2. On top of the screen you see: "Home > KORG Arranger Keyboards > KORG Pa2X / Pa800 > SteinwayPa2x"
3. Click on "SteinwayPa2x"
4. Now nothing seems to change, but just click on DOWNLOAD and now it will work
The easiest way of course is just to start from here: http://www.irishacts.com/downloads and not the URL that Rob gave. Then click at Sub-Categories: KORG Pa2X / Pa800 and after that click/choose which Steinway you want and click download.
Hope this helps ! |

Hi Nor,
I didn't know the Pa2x or Pa800 could export sounds in KCS/KMP/KSF format, could you show me how to do it?
Thanks,
Rob |

Hello Rob! Thanks so much inadvance for your kind help.
Well, I belive that Pa800 and Pa2X export samples to KMP format, and that would be enough for my Triton Extreme. Here's how to do it:
SOUND>RECORD>MENU>EXPORT> choose KMP...
I'm not sure, about the steps above but hope that helps. _________________ -Nor.

Hello Nor,
OK I can help you. I have found the original KSC/KMP/KSF sample and multisample files that I worked from. Total size is 20 Mbytes. Too big for email. If you can please set up an FTP upload area somewhere (that I don't have to pay for) then I'll upload them for you.
Best regards,
Rob |

Rob! what a wonderful samples you made man!!! Bravo I really wish to buy the samples for 35€ -price seems logic- too bad I only have my Pa800 loading 128Mb. a tweak I made with an engineer in electronics (my grand brother)
If you make a VST of those Piano samples, I might then buy them. _________________ -Nor.
