Move out Kronos x---TYROS 5 movin IN

Not to toss any oil on the fire, because I agree that Network1 could have worked past his issues by a thorough reading of the manual, but most of this could've been avoided if the maximum file path length wasn't as small as it is on the Kronos. I understand the technical origin for this, but Network1 is hardly the first one to run into this and I'm sure it has caused countless hours of frustration for many Kronos owners. I really hope this will be permanently solved in a (significant) system update or the next generation of workstations at least.

I agree that it would be better to support longer paths.

Many things Kronos start with a desire on your part, so I'm counting that a win

Sounds like to me saving a song to kronos disk is treading dangerous waters.I have not gone that route yet.Just a thought may be for now saving to usb would be the SAFE WAY to go.Kind of sounds like Geri rigging This has been a very good thread Network1 no way in hell would i depart with my kronos because of this glitch Some times we have to work around things that are not Perfect.

USB doesn't get you out of the path length limit. Avoiding nested folders and using short filenames does.

Just to Finalize

iv created a video to show to Korg-Returns, that might help .

Also included a Download link,to the folder,including the 2 samples that are assigned to KEYS ,C3 & C"3 in the Sampling Section.
FULLSCREEN looks sharp

Not at all. In fact, it's the only way; you can't play audio tracks from a USB drive.

Nice tune, by the way! Is this the song file you're trying to save?

The "error in writing to medium" message indicates a problem with the disk. Have you tried using the "check medium" command yet?

Latest update
for those of you that might have similar issues in the future

Korg-Returns Send the customer U.P.S. Packaging LABELS & Document,
to affix to the sealed Boxed Unit.
The customer then requests a Collection from U.P.S. Direct.

Well, since Network1 doesn't have a problem saving to USB, I don't believe this is the source of his problem.

Looks to me like your finger is too fat to save to the internal disk.

Maby all the Kronos's function independently of each other.
giving different results & outcomes ?
I wonder what the final file/path length, of this little song is ?

Results are quite deterministic.
The length of the path includes the file name and the names of all enclosing directories.
e.g. MainDirectory/SubDirectory/Filename.EXT
