hi there
first time that i post here, as i have kp2, padcontrol and kp3 i will post here more often.
one thing i wonder is i sampled 15 sounds to sd card. when i load them in the banks a, b, c , d its ok. but you also can save programs 0-9 for abcd combinations of samples. i tried this yesterday. but it saves only one combination. if i load prog 01 it has e.g. the same samples as when i load prog 02. i thought it was possible to save at least 10 programs.
the same funny thing occurs when i save different samples on different pads
when i call them up a01 a 02 and then b01 b02 there are the same samples in there although i loaded and saved different samples. that would mean i can save only 99 samples and not 4 x 99 samples the whole banks.
anybody knows anything about this behavior.
i have sandisk 1 GB in there.
cheers hk

You can effectively only save 1 x 99 samples, as indecated in the doc.

yeah thanks for the reply
i did read that
but what about the programs? it should save 10 different programs
0-9 from the samples.
but it always saves the same program: 01 has the same samples as 02 and so on.... anybody knows something about this?
any mistakes that i did make?

I think that you have to save as "all" and not as "prog" to accomplish what you want. Maybe the program option was poorly named.

According to the manual

1. you can only save 99 samples to a single card

2. the programs are your favorite fxs so you dont have to scroll live

these arent funny behaviors as much as what it does

the kp3 is not a sampling tool as much as an fx processor with a sampler thrown in

i dont ever save samples on mine because the load time is awful in a live situation

i just use it to record what is going on live to loop that so i can make overly complex changes that wouldnt be possible in any smooth way live

enjoy your stay on the forums

Actually, it should be 100 samples. It starts at 0 and not 1 so you get 100.

Technically you can get 140 samples on an sd

00-99 of the "SMP.X" saves = 100 samples
Each "all' saves stores 4 samples in the save and there are 0-9 (ten) saves available so you can store another 40.

I may try an experiment soon because you may be able to store up to 240 (if the SD card is big enough) because description of loading makes a distinction between loading SMP.X Snd.X where the SMP is something saved by the KP3 and the Snd is a wave or aiff that you copy to the card.

yeah 100 woops

haha

hmm save all huh? i havent used that. maybe when i get home today ill give it a go

doesnt the kp3 file system work with a dominence system

like if you have a 01.kps 01.wav and 01.aif all on the same card it will only recognize the kps file

and its kps>wav>aif

maybe im just drunk

Yes, so a 2 GB card is waste of space..
