Thanks AntonySharmman!
I understand from the written by korg1 that you can also protect PCM in storage devices

Pete It,s not what he is after.
With my respect Pls pls try to understand what the question is.
Only Germany And KORG can Lock the USB.
Locked USB Stick = Safe for you,r files.

Yes, thanks Asena - the originator's question was not clear really and I think it has been answered for him now.
To "protect" his work he would need both USB encryption/protection and Korg PA protection - not possible I think without Korg's involvement.

I imagine that all these vendors of STYLEs and samples must generally "accept" that some people will unfairly pirate "copy and share".
Like the Korg PAXMAGIC SETs - that guy put in a lot of work but I do not believe there is any "copy/sharing" protection.

Korg Kronos has the solution!!!!

Cheers

Pete Very Happy

PaxMagic mostly uses registrations of the existing factory sounds,right?

These programs or STS,even Styles,can't be protected even in locked Usb Sets.

What only can be protected is only the samples if exist,so the answer to that is yes,they are unprotected.

That is the main subject than i am interested in it aproximately during 6 months. it is true that only korg italy and oliver firm in germany can do it. But i learnt some methods about the mentality of working locked usb. They are working with a dongel key and in usb sticks there is an only 1 kb encrypted dongel key. Every restarting keyboard it sends different algoritma to set which loaded to Ram. Third part programs can do it but they are big cost, so you must understand a little software coding and buy some programmes. the codes must be suitable for Korg Linux O.S. i tried to lock usb some cracked programmes, i successed and created dongel key, but i could not solve the encryption code of Korg O.S. so, it did not worked. Tried tried more and more, but result did not change Sad sorry for broken English Sad

Correct if i am wrong,
i believe that even cloning a locked usb disk,can't copy that small 1 kb encrypted dongel key to the new backup...am i right?

USB sticks do not have any file inside..Only sd cards do have it and it is part of better protection and compatibility.
Also as far as i know ,at least in newer models, all files can be locked (including sounds and styles)...
BTW, i think it is illegal to try to crack the encryption, and most importantly i think it is off the rules of this forum to discuss this in public too...
I can assure you that no public app can do the encryption.
It is a custom algorithm from KORG and very few people (that are trustworthy and have signed a lot of papers ) do have access to the app that encrypts or the code...

Correct - I think this discussion should stop here as it now seems to have drifted towards trying to crack Korg OS.
