Yep update the OS, the one you have has the SF import bug.

Then everything will work as you expect, hopefully that is :)

OK....I just loaded the OS update and that fixed all the problems!....Thanks Bob....I don't know why I didn't think to do that in the first place....Also I loaded in an 808 soundfont kit from my Ensoniq MR and it played all the different drums across all 61 keys!!....I'll FINALLY be able to load all my entire Ensoniq sound library in a keyboard hard drive for instant recall!!!!Of course after playing the Kronos built in sounds, I have no idea why I'd want to do that....LOL...Now I can move on to figure out how to edit and save them so I can finally move on to saving Modern Drums....Thanks again!....moon

I just loaded an acoustic guitar sf2 that has three velocities per key...Muted, open,slide....It plays fine....I just need to figure out how to set the release time and modulate when you push the joystick up and it will be good to go....Definitely cool stuff....moon

Nice one :)

It seems like it is worth looking at building drumkits in a Manual way like Nedim says as well, much more work but more functionality.

Enjoy your Kronos :)

Cheers

Hello,

Could someone help me with loading a SF2 file as a streaming sound in order to reduce memory capacity. I have tried it according the manual, however no result

Thanks

When you save your samples there will be two KSC files created, one has UserBank in the name. Load that one and it will stream.
