EXs16 for Kronos2

Post by G-Rod »

:roll:

Does anyone have the proper or corrected pointers for EXs16 on Kronos2? I can't imagine this is the only EX Library that has this issue but:

Both the Combi's and Song examples play incorrectly. I assume the Drum track and/or KARMA Arps are pointing to incorrect memory locations because they sound horrible. I can only guess that it's because the factory data is different from original Kronos?

Kronos2 has been out for a couple months now and STILL this has not been corrected? Am I crazy to operate under the assumption that when I buy something for a brand new product that I shouldn't have to spend time fixing it? Why is there not one file for Kronos and one for Kronos2?

My apologies for the vent fellas, - but REALLY?!

Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks.

Load the PRELOAD KRONOSX.PCG on your HDD. This will load the original program bank order. The new EXi & HD-1 programs will be located in the AA and BB Banks, and the EXs16 Combis will reference the correct programs.

For the combi references, PCG Tools might help (i.e. it can automatically change all needed program references in a PCG file).
On the website there is a mapping/conversion table for the Kronos 2 PCG file. But you also can make your own file if you want.
