Purgatory Creek sounds

Post by G-Rod »

Has anyone figured out how to correctly get these 3 libraries installed.

I'm fine getting the files onto Flash drive and can successfully install one at a time, but the Programs over-write the previous install.

The All PCG File included does not allow for "loading KSC" because there's no "All KSC file extant.

And if I go the "load required samples" route, the system doesn't recognize the samples loaded to be added as part of Autoload.

Please Advise,

Please indicate whether you downloaded them from the Korg website or Purgatory Creek Website. The installation is different.

I downloaded them from Korg site.

I was under the impression from one of the posts here, though, that the file on Korg's site was newer, with release samples etc...?

If they are the same, I don't care where they come from, whatever is easiest!

So load the PurgCreek_All.PCG so you have all three libraries in one bank. Once loaded, there is no need to load them again.

Follow these instructions to load the samples (.KSC)

While still in Disk mode, touch the "Load" tab.
Set "Drive Select" to HDD: INTERNAL HD.
Select the Purgatory Creek folder, and touch "Open."
Select the EXs (title) folder, and touch "Open."
Select the .KSC file press LOAD
Set "Select .KSC Allocation" to "Append," and set "Load Method" to "KSC Setting."

Now the samples for that library are loaded and you should be able to play them. Do the same for the other two remaining .KSC files.

Thank you Busch, worked perfectly.

I was under the impression that if the Program wasn't loaded WITH, or at the same time as the samples, the Program would not know where the samples would be located.

I made that harder than it was.

Appreciate the speedy info and the generosity,

I am just chiming in here to say that the Albacore piano sits great in the mix.
I am playing "Feelin' Alright" in an old guy cover band. I thought that the London Upright would be the go-to patch for that, but found it a little too dark for my taste. mid-song switched to the Albacore, and it was - that's the right one. I still might want to add a bit more reverb to it, but that's just gravy on top.

Kudos to Busch and his peeps at Purgatory Creek. you earned a spot on my set list.
