As far as the memory requirements, they are as follows:

Albacore: 56MB Virtual; 1.3 GB RAM
Iowa: 24MB Virtual; 465MB RAM
Piano in 162: 124MB Virtual; 3.5GB RAM (if that were possible)
Salamander: 45MB Virtual; 1.2GB RAM
London: 2.5MB Virtual; 59MB RAM

The RAM requirements should be close to how much SSD space these will require.

Apex, I think if you listen to them closely through headphones you'll hear a lot of differences.

In comparison to the Korg pianos, the unison tuning is not as tight on most of these. You can judge that as a good or bad thing. Some people feel tight unison tuning is one reason digital pianos can sound sterile. Others can't stand to hear unison vibrations and expect everything to be very tight. With most of these pianos you can hear a fair amount (or a lot) of room ambience. The Korg pianos have more of a tight studio sound. The Korg pianos are near perfect. These pianos, not so much, more quirky but I think still very useful and might fit certainly peoples' needs.

I am relatively new to the Kronos and would like to ask, is there a downloadable text file on the process of installing these patches for use on the Kronos. I know this is a very basic question, but I do not want to mess up the install process. Is there a step by step available?

Thanks

Charlie

Hi,

Thank you very much for these wonderful Pianos.
I have the same question. I do not know how to install / copy the pianos on my Kronos X. I have downloaded and unzipped the files, put them on an usb-stick and connected it to my kronos.

Who can help?

Thank you in advance and happy easter

[KronosHerceg1972]

Finally I managed to load the pianos by just copying the files onto the HDD, then open the pcg-files and copied it into slots which were free.

After that I loaded the ksc-files and was able to play

I just exerienced one problem with the PianoIn162. When I tried to load the PianoIn162.KSC there was an error message saying:
"KSC in incomplete due to uninstalled EXs:Piano in 162 PU+.Piano in 162-PD Close,Piano in62-PU AMbient

I do not know what to do. It seems that there's something missing or cannot be read?

Who could help, please?


It seems what I did was wrong. Because when trying to play other samples from the PC Pianos the same message comes.
How is it possible to install the pianos and load the .PCGs into fixed locations (starting with a number) and not clearing/loosing the rest of the userbank
Thanks in Advance

Hi Thank you very much.
The problem is solved. I do not know what the problem was,
but now it works fine. I added the ksc file into the autoload-section.

Everything works fine.

And thanks for the wunderful piano collection.

I DO LOVE THE PIANO 162 in BLUE VERY MUCH.
Actually my favourite piano on the Kronos.

What Piano is it in real?

Thanks!

I successfully installed the London upright, and the Salamander piano over the weekend. These were my favorites thus far listening to the demos.

Yea I liked the London Upright and the Pianoln 162. I tried the Salamander and it did not have much depth as the 162 for me but they are all good. The 162 is a large sample.

so the only way to use the piano in 162 is as a streaming library.? looks as if at least.

burningbush Thank you very much for your work!
But I want to say that these libraries can not be combined with standard methods: http://www.korgforums.com/forum/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=641917#641917

I think in these files * KSC - violated internal structure. Separately everything works fine!

[burningbusch]

Don't know about violating internal structure. The KSCs were created the same way I've created all my others. The 192 KSC is "combined." The three _UserBank.KSCs can be found in the three folders. Maybe using those KSCs plus the others, e.g. London_UserBank.KSC, Iowa_UserBank.KSC, etc. will allow you to combine in the manner you wish.
