Roland D50 sound banks for Kronos available somewhere?

[omvibraphone]

Hi all,
Was wondering if anyone on here had ever taken the time to convert any of the myriad commerical Roland d50 soundbanks from back in the day to Kronos format? I already found the original bank via Youtube, and I've seen some high-priced options (for the original bank plus some extras, as far as I can see) on Ebay, but would be really interested to find out if there are any more banks/ converted sounds out there somewhere.

You've probably found the following link,but will include it just in case.
It says they're the original banks plus "extra ones"....??

Yes, that's the one I know about, but thanks for posting it. Looking for other sounds apart from those in the video (the guy did a great job btw), anyone got any other leads?

The Irish Acts link works here.

Well, I must be doing something wrong because I can't get the link to work

The link also works on my browser (using Chrome). Here is the Youtube of it, with link in the description:

Wow, nice job Irish Acts. Just listened to the demo. The DigitalNative patch takes me back to the first time I heard it in the music store. I had a crush on that patch.

Still can't log on to the Irish Acts website, keep getting an error message, tried with multiple laptops and IOS

Anyone know of any other sources for Kronosified D50 sounds, preferably some of the many commercial soundbanks that were created?

This sound are for a VST NOT for the Korg Kronos.
I buy them and.....not for the Kronos! (I've send them a mail about this, but hear nothing from him )

According to the blurb on this package on the Irishacts website, a Kronos edition is included with the purchase of this item. Might be worth giving Sharp another nudge.

All files are .MSE, that's for the VST not for Kronos!

I recall downloading a bunch of one shots from the "digital" part of the D50 - and had a blast creating wavesequences from them. I think it was only 1 gig. I'll have to root around, but the were free and the person who posted wasn't selling them. Bear w/ me. The D50 grafted these one shots onto more traditional oscillators to form most of the basic string/horn/bellish tones...

[yeskeys]

So I found it in my download folder, it was posted in a thread called "Free sounds for Kronos" or something similar by a generous user named Stoeffel or Stoessel (sorry, I can't do any searches right now to verify anything) and was 3.9MB, a ZIP file entitled "Roland D-50 Waves.zip".

It unzips to a KSC file, of which there are 101 KMPs, each with a corresponding folder that holds a KSF.

I loaded the master KSC and used the one shots in wavesequences. Highly addictive and fun.

BTW, the latest version of Omnisphere does an admirable job at reconstituting a pretty extensive library of D50 patches, they sound damn good as Persing and Co. put out the highest quality soundware.
