Do you have any of the OASYS libraries ? If so you can load the PCM data from them into your M3.

Sharp.

Hi Sharp,

thanx... Yes you can load the sample data (KSF-file)
We are still working on all our sample based libraries to convert it for M3 including the PCG :-)

Yes I do. I know that the Dance Composer will work great with the M3 but I'm not sure about my Virtual Analog.
Yes I heard you all were doing the M3 stuff!!! Hence why I'm so impatient!!! :) :) especially for the release of the Etno library!!!! :verycool:

Hi DJ,

KARO now have 17 different OASYS libraries. that's pretty much! Now we are working to transport all sample libraries based on the M3. that's a lot of work ...
an ethno library is indeed being considered but it will certainly take a whole now, because we want to maintain our quality! :roll:

Best wishes,

Kurt

Hello KARO `s,

what we would have done without you? Thank you for the many great sounds! We love your libraries and respect your great work. Thank you KARO and Korg for supporting our Oasys :idea:

Cheers,

I've been reluctant to send this post but, while I find the quality of samples from Karo products to be exquisite, and in general the programming is quite good; there are persisting problems with several of your packages which I've purchased which render them unusable.

In particular, your Fender Rhodes programs are utterly unplayable as the velocity switching on numerous programs reveal such different sounds that they cannot be used. There are some similar issues with other pianos packages too though not as severe. But your original Philharmonic Strings were particularly disappointing and simply cannot be used.


As said, I was reluctant to flag this on this forum as many Karo packages are excellent - but I did ask numerous times both in private messages and on this forum for you to reprogram the Philharmonic Strings, the Fender Rhodes programs in particular; but alas to no avail.

Hence though I admire your work and commitment to OASYs, I'm unwilling to purchase any more of your packages because I feel there's an inherent risk of them being simply not useable in professional work.

I'd be grateful for you to revisit the two packages mentioned with a view to releasing far better strings programs; and perhaps to release a series of different Fender Rhodes programs on one velocity layer (hard/soft/...) and so on, so that they can be actually used.
You are definitely expert at actually sampling – your samples are impeccable – but I believe that your sample-programming needs to improve a notch to be usable when ‘exposed’; most particularly on the Philharmonic Strings and the Fender Rhodes (but to a certain extent on other piano packages too).


Cheers,
Kevin.
