Korg Forums

[SynthfulDwarphus]

It seems the only way to navigate to, or even first discover the existence of, the Korg Forums Downloads section (http://www.korgforums.com/downloads.htm) is to happen on it with certain external/ browser websearches, or maybe a mention of it in a thread.

I don't think I'm wrong about its obscurity to the new member, and I've just scoured this whole site again and can't find any link or mention of the Download page ANYWHERE in the menus, index, section headers, footers, search page, etc.

Wouldn't it make sense to put a very prominent link to the Download section both generally on the main/home page, as well as direct links to relevant sections of the Download page within the each respective subforum page (e.g. a Kronos Download section direct link at the top of the Kronos subforum page), as well as search page/headers/ footers?

Thanks.

Hi again

Firstly Korg has no association with these Forums.
The downloads section has not been maintained for a long time.
Uploads are not supported or managed currently.
There is no plan to create or change or maintain a download section, so all will remain as is.

I recommend that you change your weblink to http://www.korgforums.com/forum/phpBB2/ which will take directly to the Forums.

Cheers

Sorry to be pedantic (I just can't help myself), but top of each page here still says "Owned by Irish Acts Recording Studio & hosted by KORG USA" and "Korg Forums - News - Downloads/Resources".
Anyway, maybe one day the downloads section could be more accesssible and open to appropriate uploads for all users. GREAT site, though, very grateful it's here, and many helpful users, thanks![/code]

Funny coincidence... just a couple of days ago, I went to the Downloads page to see what might be available for a newly acquired (used) Korg, and I was surprised to see that there was nothing available for any model that had come out in many years! Well that explains it.

I'm glad they didn't remove what was already there, at least. But it would be nice if they edited the downloads page just with a little note to explain that the downloads function is no longer maintained, and that no new files will be added.

Does anyone have any recommendations about where to find user content? Facebook groups maybe? (Ugh.)
