Couple of questions:-
What level OS are you at?

If you are at 2.1 or higher then are the ARRANGEMENTS A & B matching the original list per documentation?
If not, then some previous owner will have performed an "AB with CD swap" - this will be a problem if you do not have a backup (diskette) taken of C&D after the swap.

To restore the factory C&D banks you will need the preload diskette (supplied with the i30 originally):-

The problem is that Korg has closed the URL (http://www.korgpa.com/pa_root/software/ ... reload.zip), so no way of downloading that zip file.

Any chance you, or any other friendly soul, have them in your archive?

The copy of Korg i30 factory disks will do as well.

Thanks in advance.

Cheers.

This is my copy:-

The download button is at the top of the screen (a "down-arrow" icon)

Hope this helps

My pleasure - I have other files too (styles etc)

Let me know if you want me to zip them up for you - there is Roland G1000, Yamaha 8000 and more

Cheers

Well, I'm first trying to explore the factory styles of Korg i30 and it can take a while. But unless you have some Korg i30 styles, yes, please, post them if so :)

Pete Hi,

Strictly I need all you have for i30. Especially synths-synthpad sounds.

Can you help me? I have to bring back to life my i30.
