Yes...there are pdf files in the Zip file that show the m3 features regarding 2.0...

I could not keep myself from installing it. I'm on a mac and i just wanted people to know that everything in the mac file is 100% english. Even the installer. Have to admit, i have not gotten the sound editor to work just yet. But they never do on my computers for some reason. Think i did something wrong with the usb stuff from the very beginning, and I've never really needed the editor to begin with. Why control it like a soft synth when you got the knobs right there, you know

Anyways, v2.0 gets huge thumbs up from me. It's my first Korg product and i could not have been happier with it. Sweeee-eet!

i also like the control from the board but(imo)the editor's advantages are:

* you get a wider picture of the synth (visually) and it's much easier
to set the parameters values (numbers) at the desirable level
* navigation is more accessible
* step\mod sequencing, are much more easy and fun then the board
* the copy\paste is great - much faster then using the Utility mode

generally, with the editor you create programs much faster sometimes...

but there is nothing like twiking these knobs hhe??

The thanks really should be to Jerry ,as he took our quest for more Mod Sources and destinations, to the Korg developers, and they in turn developed it,(not to mention some new patches using these mod sources to be released later in the year)...

I'm glad to see your enthusiasm - it's very satisfying to do something that is appreciated. I'll be sure that the people that did the real work see your comments.

I helped, but I don't deserve the full credit - it's certainly a team approach. But I get to walk out here into the spotlight so I "seem" to be deserving of all the glory. I'm not...

Enjoy the new flexibility and we'll have the sounds ready as soon as possible. We'd love to hear what you come up with as well - post some things for us all to enjoy!

Best regards,

Jerry

its a matter of preference really...

i love having the knobs there for tweaking and playing live, but overall i dont really think that the layout of the pannel is organized well enough for me to make sounds from scratch. I remember tying to when i was demoing it, but found that i kept having to dig through menus to get what i was after.
The editor is REALLY well laid out and allows you some editing features you just wouldnt be able to tap into without the software such as the copy paste feature, using templates, and being able to drag and drop timbres from other patches.
I also like to maximize my available patch memory by obliterating all the factory presets and writing my own, with the editor's librarian feature i can save the factory presets and steal what i want from them without having to keep them on the synth.

ANyways, thanks jerry and the dev crew at korg.
You've proven that you DO listen and take care of your customers

After getting the editor to actually work earlier today, thanks to botega, I have to agree with what you guys say about the editor. It really is sweet, and for some of the tasks it makes stuff quicker. Clicking through the edit menus on the korg can be a bit tedious, having them right there on screen really quickens it up. I have seen the light. What i want now is to get my module next to my keyboard on the desk, cause then i can use both without turning to my left to tweak knobs and back right for the mouse constantly

Any extension cords for the radias<>kbd cable?

I just flashed my Radias to 2.0 without a problem

...Remember you must put it into boot loader mode by holding down the master effects, cursor <and> buttons while powering on.

I hope you did it in private and behind closed doors.
