Wow, impressive Daz!  Where did you find the structure of KSF files?

I used the information from the back of the Parameter Guide. The only extra bit I had to work out was that the sample data is in a different word order to a wave file, but that was an easy guess given that we already knew that they use Motorola word order for all other WORD and DWORD's from our PCG twiddlings.<br><br>Daz.

I've noticed that on the Korg's main website, there is a download section, where you can download certain sound libraries/banks of different types of keyboards.

It would be nice to know which ones have the "simple KSF files that contain uncompressed samples" and/or where to download them from, if they are not located in the download section of Korg's main website.

Do you or anyone else know?

It's a Windows program.

I don't know anything about Yamaha's Tyros, so I can't comment on that.

Thanks Joe, I had almost forgotten this handy little tool, thanks for the reminder.

The answer to your PM is yes by the way ;-) I have retired from this forum.

That's what I was afraid of! As an apparent newbie by my profile I might not the best placed to credibly say that but do believe me: you'll be hugely missed here. And I'm not talking about Korg, but the 24,439 registered users. Really.

So no more chance to get a little help for my T2 from you...? Not even just for this very last one tiny bit of time!? ;-)

Hope you'll have tons of fun with your new quest and toys!
Kind regards and thanks for your answer!
