Loading midi files

Hi guys,

I am writing the post, because I am bit confused with my Korg Krome. First of all I love it, but I use a lot of midi files (songs)
when I play and I have noticed that I can only load up to 1.5 megabytes.
Thats about 15-20 songs. Does it really have so little memory or I am not loading the files correctly.
If 1.5 megabytes is the norm is there some kind of upgrade so I can load more files. I usually load
my files and save them as a .sng file so all the songs load at once.

Thank you in advance for your tips and solutions.

I'm not sure what you're doing here. Usually .mid files are pretty small.

Mind you, let's say that the ones you have are full of enough detail that you get 20 - fair enough. Why not save them in multiple different .sng files? After all, the Krome has the ability to keep a hell of a lot of those on an SD card.

The files are stored on a sd card and I load one by one
and then the internal memory says stop at 1.5 megabytes.
After that I save the loaded files to a .sng file.
What I would like to know if there is a way to upgrade
the 1.5 megabytes internal memory so I can load more files at once.

Not to hi-jack the thread but when you want to import a list of songs into the sequencer is that the best way to do it? That is, load the midi files into song positions and then save the whole thing as a .sng?
