Hi,

I'm just wondering, with so many new sound libraries being released for the KRONOS series, is there a conversion tool to use at least some of them with the OASYS?

Is it even technically possible?

Any help appreciated, thanks,
Ian

I'm afraid not ... the question has been asked for my app (PCG Tools) too but it also cannot do it, though it is on the wish list.

Technically it should not be a problem, except for:
- EXis not being available on the Oasys (has nothing to do with the new sound libraries)
- The Oasys does not have that many program banks, and possibly less space for samples (indices) etc (not really sure about the last part)

But yes, it should be possible.

Probably Korg will not spend time to implement this feature, since it is not really a good business case for them ... I hope in the future I can add it in PCG Tools (but there is so much to do).

Thanks a lot for the prompt and honest reply. That's more or less what I suspected - Korg don't have much of a business reason to make their Kronos brand of libraries backward compatible.

Actually, they never do that, especially not when the synth engine changes, which is btw. not really true for Kronos/Oasys.
