hello,
does somebody tried to import oasys combi's
into kronos?
I'd like to load "groove 02" combis from the oasys
download section into kronos, but I wonder
what would be the result.

I don't have a Kronos but I think according to the specs/docs it should be possible.

Remember that when you load combis you also need to load the used programs used in the combi.

It will load, but I'm pretty sure the program assignment will be wrong. Make sure to have the OASYS Voice Name List and Kronos Voice Name List side by side and remap the program.

It's so strange you cannot load combi INCLUDING the needed programs (with automatic reference changes).

Hmm? I loaded what was available to me, the catalyst pcg for O. I did not load the Oasys pcg. I was under the impression Kronos had it covered? Rolling Eyes

Actually I meant it a little different. It would be nice to load a single combi from a PCG and that automatically the needed programs would be loaded into 16 free (or specified) program slots, and the combi would automatically remap the programs to those new locations.

It's a bit old topic but since it is referenced in another thread I post to this ...

Currently (actually for quite some time) PCG Tools can copy combis or set list slots from one PCG including the needed programs/combi.

Example:

You have two Kronos PCG files called a.pcg and b.pcg and you want to copy 5 set list slots from one to another INCLUDING the used programs/combis.

What you do:
- Select a.pcg
- Select the 5 set list slots.
- Press Copy, you will see that the clipboard contains 5 set list slots, but also the used programs and combis (and programs used in those combis), let's say 10 programs and 3 combis.
- Go to b.pcg

Then do in any order:
- Select one or more programs where to paste the programs to and press Paste. The programs will be pasted, you can do this also in multiple steps. If the programs cannot be pasted in the bank (because it is a modeled program (EXi) and the bank is a sample bank (HD1) it will not be copied. Select another bank and try again.
- Select one or more combis to paste the combis to and press Paste.
- Do the same for the set list slots.

All references will be automatically fixed.

However, you cannot copy from an Oasys PCG to a Kronos PCG directly. To do this, first convert the Oasys PCG to a Kronos PCG (on the Kronos synth). Then use the steps above.
