transfer songbook entries from 3X to 4X

[mikey224]

Hello everyone,
Is it possible to transfer 3X songbook entries, some of which I've created myself, as well as tweaked factory styles on specific songs, to the 4X?
Thanks

Loading Global data from Pa-Series instruments

Being unique to each instrument, Global data (Preferences, MIDI Presets, MaxxAudio settings, etc.) can’t be loaded from other KORG Pa-Series instru ments. They are therefore discarded when loading a SET folder generated by an instrument other than Pa4X.

Loading data from Pa-Series instruments

You can load most data from KORG Pa-Series instruments. The following table shows what you can load from the other instruments.

Please keep in mind that, depending on the actual data, you could not be able to directly load SET folders; in this case, open the folder, and load each bank or individual item separately. After loading, save the converted data as a new SET folder after loading all the needed data.

LOAD from Pa3X

You can load most data as if they were Pa4X data. There are however a few exceptions to be considered:

• Performances and STSs are converted to Keyboard Sets.

• Due to the different order in memory, Factory Styles must be manu ally reassigned to SongBook Entries by using the KORG SongBook Editor software.

• Favorite Style banks over #10 are missing and are not loaded. Since Pa4X banks are larger, load the individual Styles into the additional loca tions of the other banks.

• Performance banks over #11 are missing and are not loaded. Since Pa4X Keyboard Set banks are larger, load the individual Performances into the additional locations of the other banks.

• Since the number of Insert and Master FX is different, the effects con figuration can be different.
• Voice Processor Presets with the MP3 Audio harmony type are reset.

• Global settings are not loaded.

Good luck

If I remember rightly, I thought the Songbook data had to be redone when going from the PA3X to the PA4X…?

Can someone correct me if this is incorrect?

As taichi says above:-

LOAD from Pa3X
You can load most data as if they were Pa4X data. There are however a few exceptions to be considered:
• Performances and STSs are converted to Keyboard Sets.
• Due to the different order in memory, Factory Styles must be manually reassigned to SongBook Entries by using the KORG SongBook Editor software.
• Favorite Style banks over #10 are missing and are not loaded. Since Pa4X banks are larger, load the individual Styles into the additional loca tions of the other banks.
• Performance banks over #11 are missing and are not loaded. Since Pa4X Keyboard Set banks are larger, load the individual Performances into the additional locations of the other banks.
• Since the number of Insert and Master FX is different, the effects con figuration can be different.
• Voice Processor Presets with the MP3 Audio harmony type are reset.
• Global settings are not loaded.

Bearing those issues in mind it works OK
