After plugging the USB flashdrive into the Kronos, what exactly do I do next? lol. Sorry again, but definitely would like some help here.

Once you've loaded it up (you get the dialogue box that shows the files loading very quickly), press the Seq tab.

You can then play the sounds - you can then convert to a program if you want (and do very much more besides...)

Wait, so once I've loaded the KSC file onto the Kronos, where it loads all the files very quickly, then I go to Sequencer mode? How do I then select the sounds? And what about the other folder, labeled HANGDRUM--do I also need to load this as well??
Sorry, I am very new to sample technology.

Anyone? I'm dying to play with these sounds, but can't find them yet!!!

I havent grabbed this yet but can try and help. you need to load the pcg if there is one. That will map the samples to a program that you can play.

If there isn't one, then you have to create your own patch and assign the samples.

I am going to grab this and give it a try - if nobody else who has downloaded has given you specific answers I will post again to help you out.

Thanks ed; I wasn't able to find a PCG file, and that's where I got stuck, so any help would be greatly appreciated.

So can anyone fill me on in how to access these sample sounds, which include a KSC file that I have loaded into the Kronos, but contains no PCG file...

I think I mentioned earlier - load the KSC file up, then go into Sampling Mode
then start playing the keyboard.

That's how you get to hear the sound - BUT it is not a program yet. It is just the current set of active samples.

You have to create a program out of it. You do that by going to drop down menu (top right of screen) and selecting 'Convert MS to Program'.

Give it a name, select where you want the program to go and you're done. Sort of.

I don't have any free slots on the OASYS to experiment so don't know if the samples need to be mapped to keys first...

Oh!! I thought you said press the SEQ tab, which confused me, but this makes a lot more sense! Thanks a lot, will go try this now!

Exclamation Point!

So now I am in Sampling mode and am able to play each sample individually, but is it possible to combine multiple samples into a single patch? Because a lot of these samples are labeled "L" and "R" which seems to imply they are monophonic and meant to be combined with their opposite partner.
Any help here?

Hey Goose sorry I have been tied up, but you are getting there and getting the info you need. You might want to check out the manual. You can indeed have multiple samples in your patch and build up a complete instrument by indexing them into the patch. Page 133 of the operation guide picks up where you are with the samples and how to set that up.

If I get a chance to do it myself before you do, I will send you the pcg

Thank you ed f!! Certainly would not mind having someone more experienced do the hard work for me, lol, so I'll probably hold off and wait for the experts

In my KSC pack all samples are collected into STEREO multisamples. You just need to create program using these multisamples. I can't share PCG with programs due to certain circumstances. At the moment, my PCGs are not compatible with current official Kronos OS. As soon as I can - I'll post all the PCGs for all of my shared samplebanks.

Hmm, well since I don't seem to be able to figure out this multisample business, I guess I'll hope and pray for someone to combine all these awesome samples into PCG's.
Hope someone with some tech savvy will save the day!

Ok. Tonight I'll try install OS1.6 in my Kronos and make PCG for you. but I can not promise exactly
