Acou piano sample banks

Post by SCHWEATS »

Oddly , I see the discussion re: the ex2 samples for the various Grand Pianos
for the Oasys but I do not have that group of samples on board , only the program bank.

Anyone know where I can retrieve that sample bank .pcg ?

Quick question....when you bring up the EXs2 program and touch the screen to bring up the OSC1 screen, what samples are shown? My OASYS piano EXs2 shows:

multisamples EXs2 stereo 0003, 0002, 0001, 0000

Montage M7, Pa5x76, Nautilus, PA3Xle, Oasys 76, Mini-Moog, EMU Audity 2000, Motion Sound KBR 3D amp, Presonus and Reaper DAW W/Tannoy Reveal 501A powered monitors

EXs2 Grand Piano samples

Post by SCHWEATS »

Choosing the program St. Concert Piano EXs2 , it shows under Osc 1 and Osc 2
St. 0003, 0002, 0001. Then hitting the Osc/Pitch edit tab , it than shows
for MS 1 , 2 , 3 and 4 , no sample bank chosen indicated by '-------------'
and when opening the > for what the exact sample, it shows 'no sample' .

Where might I find the sample bank for this group of Grand Piano programs ?

I checked the Korg website and found nothing … any other location come to mind ?

Many TIA - Schweats

No, the website would have to be the original source. I can't remember back to the actual set of circumstances when I got the programs. When I bring up the factory preload.pcg the date indicated for the group of piano EXs2 is 20/02/2009. If memory serves me, there was a software update that became available just before that time that I loaded. The programs and samples must have been included with that update. I can't remember the number. Wish I could be of more help. Hope you get to the bottom of it.

GLOBAL mode, BASIC page. Touch the dropdown menu (upper right screen) and select EXPANSION SAMPLE SETUP. Check the box for EXs2 Concert Grand Piano. Press OKAY.

The EXs2 Piano samples should load. (If you only have 1 gig of RAM, you need to uncheck the EXs1 ROM Expansion, so the 500 meg piano can load.)

The EXs2 Piano programs should be in your USER A bank. If not, go to DISK mode, OPEN the FACTORY folder and you can find the Piano programs in the PRELOAD.PCG. OPEN the PRELOAD file and load or open the USER A bank.

Thanks Mike, that should sort it out for him. I had even forgot that you need the additional ram to load EXs 1 and 11 together. Been a long time. Merry Christmas. 8)
