PCG Tools 2.7.3 has been released.
Bug fix: When moving, sorting or compacting programs, timbres set as External (Ext or Ex2) are NOT affected anymore (since these are not referencing to the moved programs). _________________

Dear all,
It has been a long time ago, but there is a new version of PCG Tools (see http://pcgtools.mkspace.nl)
Major changes:
- Support for drum kits, drum patterns and wave sequences (although when moved, patches using them are not synced, I hope to add this in a later version).
- Splitting double to single setup keyboard layouts (Kronos only).
- Initialize combis as MIDI MPE standard.
- Patches can be shown in HEX/ASCII format.
- Various improvements
- Various bug fixes
- Various new links
- New installer (note that it might be necessary to remove the old installation of PCG Tools manually... to do this, go to Control Panel, select PCG Tools, uninstall it, and install the new PCG Tools 2.8.0).
Full list:
Feature : Drum Kits, Drum Patterns and Wave Sequences can be moved up/down.
Feature : Drum Kits, Drum Patterns and Wave Sequences can be sorted.
Feature : Drum Kits, Drum Patterns and Wave Sequences can be cleared.
Feature : Drum Kits, Drum Patterns and Wave Sequences can be compacted.
Feature : Drum Kits, Drum Patterns and Wave Sequences can be (de/semi)capitalized.
Feature : Splitting double-to-single keyboard set lists (Kronos only).
Feature : Initialize combis as MIDI MPE standard (for e.g. Roli keyboards).
Feature : Patches can be shown as HEX/ASCII for analyzing purposes.
Language: Several language words/fragments updates.
Improv : All patches show as tooltip their empty/initialized status.
Improv : Programs and combis show as tooltip their used drum kit/track info.
Improv : Changing set list names directly updates the set PCG window.
Improv : Cleaning set lists will also clean the set list names.
Improv : Renaming set list names auto updates the screen (Kronos only).
Improv : Song names and sample info from a SNG file can be exported to a text file.
Bug Fix : Prevented crash when pasting set list slots (Kronos only).
Bug Fix : Prevented crash when selecting MIDI Tracks in song file.
Bug Fix : MS200, MicroKorg and MicroKorg XL programs seen as modeled program (instead of sampled).
Links : Added new window with personal links (Co-Incidental, Nothing Else Matters, Altran etc).
Links : Added link to several donators and GitaarDemo (guitar shop).
Install : New installer.
Kind regards,

Hi Michel,
I'am a new user of the Krome, and i found your PCG Tools. Thanks for it.
But what is the problem to convert PCG files from Kronos to Krome?
Cannot find anything at the web about converting to Krome.
greetings from Heerlen |

This is because the systems are too different.
See http://pcgtools.mkspace.nl/faq.html for a detailed explanation (copy/paste and conversion). _________________

Dear PCG Tools users,
As you have noticed, it has been a long time since there has been an update for PCG Tools. Due to lack of time and being very busy with another project, I have (in principle) no time anymore to add more features. This does not mean there will never be any new release anymore. Maybe in some future or when I have a more time I will pick it up again. Or even better, maybe others want to continue contributing to PCG Tools.
Because of that, I made the source code available on my website download page.(http://pcgtools.mkspace.nl/download.php).
I will still answer questions about PCG Tools.
Also I want to thank everybody who helped me, contributed to it, posts bugs, had discussions and used it.
Kind regards,
Michel Keijzers _________________

As of today, a new version of PCG Tools is released (3.1.0).
The two most important change are support for the new released Korg Krome EX. This bring the total number of supported models to 60.
Also, a new feature to select any number of combis, combi banks, set list slots or set lists, and the volume of them can be changed simultaneously. In case of combis, the used parameters are changed, set list slots have their own volume. You can change volume by a fixed value (e.g. make them all 100), by a change (e.g. subtract 20 from all patches, of course it will never exceed 0 and 127). And you can even map them between two values (e.g. between 80 and 100), or a smart mapping which checks the current volumes and maps them to the new mapping values. It can be found under Edit, Change Volume. Thanks to translators for the translations.
As always, the application is free and can be found at http://pcgtools.mkspace.nl
Enjoy/kind regards,

The PCG Tools website will from now on be part of KronosHaven, a website for Korg Kronos fans.
Of course PCG Tools will still support other models, but since the most users are Kronos users, that website seems very applicable.
It can be found here: https://www.kronoshaven.com/pcgtools/ _________________
