I too have an X50 and have the same issue with PCGTools. Just wondering if this is likely to be fixed? Would be fantastic if it is. Could really do with rearranging those programs Smile

Cheers, Jay

It seems the actual problem is in the Korg editor, but I need more time to check for details.

The problem is that all references are pointing wrongly AFTER being saved by the Korg editor; when PCG Tools load it, I cannot read the correct information anymore (since it is overwritten).

Hello,
I have a X50 now for 3 day,s and i have download a file for the Kronos but they said it is For the E bank and i have not, can i use PCG tool to change that???

Dus het is geschreven voor de E bank van een Kronos, maar kan dat veranderd worden met PCG tools in bv de D bank??
Ben een ROM player dus niet echt thuis in programeren en al helemaal niet in HEX.
Kun jij me een beetje op weg helpen Thanks.
Ton.

Normally PCG Tools installs .NET Framework 4 (or higher) automatically if not installed already ... this framework is used by lots of programs.

Maybe your PC is protected so it does not automatically load/install it.

However, you can install it yourself at: http://www.microsoft.com/nl-nl/download/details.aspx?id=40779

Btw, I'm not living near rotterdam.

Hello Michel,

just wondering have you found a way to import .PCG combi patches properly meanwhile?

There are several problems:

1. I can't paste patches made for TR/Le to X50 via your program
UPDATE: With overwrite settings turned ON. Maybe you should consider for next update to include it upon instalation and then leave to users to turn off if they want to. This way it leads to conclusion that something isn't working.

2. When I export to .PCG via X50 editor and try to import it later all Combi sounds get it's sound numbers messed up, so instead of C104 for e.g. it loads C000, B023 gets B000... in other words all sounds become X000 program.
UPDATE: Some of combi sounds send timbres to non-existing banks, I haven't found a pattern yet why and when it occurs.

Dear PCG Tools users,

As you have noticed, it has been a long time since there has been an update for PCG Tools. Due to lack of time and being very busy with another project, I have (in principle) no time anymore to add more features. This does not mean there will never be any new release anymore. Maybe in some future or when I have a more time I will pick it up again. Or even better, maybe others want to continue contributing to PCG Tools.

Because of that, I made the source code available on my website download page.(http://pcgtools.mkspace.nl/download.php).

I will still answer questions about PCG Tools.

Also I want to thank everybody who helped me, contributed to it, posts bugs, had discussions and used it.

Kind regards,

Michel Keijzers

Dear PCG Tools users,

A new version of PCG Tools can be downloaded at http://pcgtools.mkspace.nl.

The most important improvement is the support for the new Korg Kross 2.
Also some crashes have been fixed for various other models.

See below for details.

Kind regards,

Michel Keijzers (developer of PCG Tools)

Thanks a lot for the librarian and amount of work you have spent for the sake of us korg users!

Some suggestions for improvements))

Is there any chance to make such thing in PCG tool that after re-organizing patch/voice list of X-50 in the Programm mode , COMBi would automatically receive new locations of the Programms when synchronized with X -50 and new patch locations of PCG file?

Thanks in advance!

Ivan
