i think i took it from here:

http://download.cnet.com/Java-Runtime-Environment-JRE/3000-2378_4-10009607.html

as a footnote to this.. if your having issues on Vista/win7 whereby your system wont work with the 32 bit version of the editor, i didnt find that changing drivers or messing with the registry was any help, it was just a big red herring! My driver shows up as SV1 not Korg SV1 and the editor works fine.. but this was only after i installed the 64bit version, the 32 bit would not work for me, no matter what i tried. Of course the 64 bit won't even install if you dont have the right version of the Java runtime, and the one referenced in the manual would not work for me and the install failed. My solution was to search around, and download a different java runtime, I found one on Cnet that worked for me but YMMV, but keep playing this game until you can get the 64bit version to install. The 64bit version works flawlessly for me now.

Hi everybody,
I have exactly the same problem as gilgamex,
I just bought a 73 keys black Korg SV1, it sounds great but I'm having problems with the editor. I'm using Windows 7 64bits, followed all the forum instructions to install the MIDI Drivers, that are installed correctly, showing KORG SV-1 under the dispositives list of the control panel.
When I start the editor, it found the SV1 but the connection between the hardware and the editor seems to be extremely slow. It's like the editor is reading the SV1 memory but it never finish. I waited one hour and a few instruments were loaded in the software, but it's completely unusable. If I move a knob, the software respond 2 minutes late..or don't respond. I tried in different usb ports, different cables.. even delete de midi - midi9 list in the registry and installed everything again..

The SV1 works fine with other midi softwares, so I suppose it's a Java/Windows issue. Just installed the Java 7 Update 3 x64 but it don't solve the problem.

Hope you guys can help,
Thanks a lot in advance!
best,
finegiro

As you'll see from an earlier post i made, i had to go back to an earlier version of java before the editor would work Vista 64. Works great now though.

Hi everyone, sorry for your issues... ex software developper here... be kind to the coders, im sure they have their hands full with challenges...

I got my sv1 and am happy as a pig in dung It's awesome! Keys could be a little bit better but you'd loose a bit of the feel... It's awesome, it's all i can say!

My os is xp sp3 latest drivers, rebooted, I've updated java, the drivers, tried all the combos (i also debug Netbackup enterprise issues - i know what im doing - but im not a midi expert...).

I've reinstalled drivers, they all show good everywhere (device manager, event vwr, etc), the editor works and connect, and says loading just below the title bar. it load 5%, 19%, sometimes 78%, restarts at 5%, etc... I dont have 10 midi devices in the registry...

The mouse is always in the "watch cursor" mode, nothing works...
If i leave it overnight, it end up in no connection. No input port found. But the usb sees it and it is recognized as an sv1.

Any stable updates to come soon? Any ideas?

Hey Guys,

Just to add to the thread, I got the Sv-1 73 RV a few days ago and tried to install the editor yesterday.
My system is a fresh Windows 7 64 bit system, and I've installed all the latest drivers and Java 7.4 but the editor(64 bit) stays on the backup screen.
I've tried an earlier version of Java but no change.

-Usb Midi driver is set to 'both' as previously mentioned.

Can anyone shed any light on anything else that might help to get it working?

Hey guys (first post ),
So I was running into the same issue as most here: when I opened the Editor, all I saw was the Backup tab. I use Win 7 x64. I called Korg and the problem was fixed within 5 minutes. Go the start menu and type in regedit. In the frame on the left open KKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>SOFTWARE>Microsoft>Windows NT>Current Version>Drivers32 in the frame on the right you should notice registry entries titled midi, midi1, midi2, etc... I won't get into the how and why in this post, but i right-click>delete on the following entries: midi, midi1, midi2. Close the regedit using File>Exit. Open the Start menu and open: All Programs>KORG>KORG Usb-MIDI Driver Tools and open Install Korg USB-Midi Device. After installation, open the Editor and it should work.

Sorry for wall-of-text >_<

just in case, save a copy of the registry before doing any changes, a delete anywhere can happen too easily... i'll try it this weekend!

I had some problems too when I first tried to install the 64 bit version of the Editor, even though I had upgraded the JRE seconds before (this was my second try). Apparently it couldn't detect the necessary JRE... So I tried the 32 bit installer, works fine.

Oh, yes. The dreaded Editor. Had me pulling my hair - what's left of it - in the beginning. After acquiring the updates, it worked...sometimes. It sure was finicky. My OS was W7 64bit back then. I had to jump through a few hoops, but it worked. I haven't loaded it with my new OS, W8, but since Korg stopped at Sound Pack 2, I saw no reason to reinstall it as my SV-1 is outfitted pretty much how I like it.
