Thanks very much Paw. I imagine we will see more of these updates now as the EK50's OS is being shared with 3 other NEW models - The L the i3 and a piano.
Cheers - Keith |

No.... i agree ....not quite sure what all that is about with Grand Piano .... i just use it for practice personally and a 'home' button.
If anybody can offer a simple explanation of any changes that would be good....

v2.9 The Grand Piano button is no longer Grand Piano Upper 1 and +1 octave Grand Piano on Upper 2 & 3. Now the Grand Piano is identical to the same Upper 2 & 3 registrations as 001 Grand Piano, Dark Pad & StringsEns2
I'm glad they have now fixed the Small Pipe tuning on B flat 5 which I requested even before v2.4
I'll see what other changes there might be and post them on the EK-50 Forum |

Glad they got the small pipe sorted Peter ..... You waited a long time for that ....lol
Thanks for the details around piano ....there might be some other hidden stuff
it would have been good if they could have maybe fixed the problem with speaker EQ ... maybe not possible? Notice if you change the setting on the fly, the whole board mutes for a short period.
I waded through a bank of set lists and saved it how I want for that situation, but if I maybe use the board in a different place, I might want a different speaker eq and as soon as i change the set list the eq of course changes back.

Hello,
- Added "GRAND PIANO" function to keep playing by pressing [SHIFT] and [GRAND PIANO] SW is like feature:
Patch / keyboard set change? Keep notes
This will disable changing / killing off notes when patch / keyboard set switching and note is pressed. This but not removes popping noise. After pressing SHIFT + "GRAND PIANO" you can activate or deactivate again (but it still switches to Grand Piano). No activation and deactivation information is displayed. _________________ Korg gear: EK-50, Volca FM / Keys

Did you try the factory reset described on page 28 of the manual?
I'm about to install the update too and need to know what works or didn't. _________________ EK-50 |
