Hi all!,
I splurged on the $249 SGX-2 Berlin D Piano, EXS 18 collection and KRS-07 sound pack 3.0. When I try to copy the EXS17.zip to a Kronos formatted USB drive I get an error on my Mac that says the file can't be copied because it exceeds the limitations of the FAT32 file system. (It's a 4.3GB file) How am I going to load that nice Berlin D on my Kronos 2? Thanks in advance for any tips or suggestions!

Stop there.

The file should be 'unzipped ' on your Mac.

Not zipped.

Thanks, I thought I read somewhere to leave it zipped, it did in fact copy without a file size error once I unzipped it to an even bigger file size.

a file size error ? I have zero idea about that.'

This sounds frustrating, but the Korg documented steps have to be exactly followed.

Your Mac gave you the right answer to your problem:
FAT32 file system stores 32-bit file sizes, so is limited to 4GB file size.
