Anything that you create or edit in the KRONOS can be saved to disk. There are a number of file types for
different types of data, but for now we’ll concentrate on the three main types: .PCG, ,.SNG, and .KSC files. <\/p>\n
PCG stands for “Program, Combination, and Global.”These files can also include Set Lists, Wave Sequences, Drum Kits, user Drum Track patterns, and user KARMA GEs. PCGs are variable in size; they may
include only a single bank of Programs, for instance, or all 13 banks of all data types. <\/p>\n
SNG stands for “Song.” These files store all of the Songs from Sequencer mode. <\/p>\n
KSC stands for “Korg Sample Collection.” This is a list all of the RAM multisamples and samples in internal
memory, along with all of the loaded EXs.<\/p>\n
Multisamples and Drum Samples. Note that this is just a list of which samples are loaded; the actual data is stored separately. <\/p>\n
You can store all of this data together in a single step.<\/p>\n
1. Press the front panel DISK button to enter Disk mode.<\/p>\n
2. Press the File tab, and then the save tab, to to the Disk-Save page.<\/p>\n
3. Optionally, Press Drive Select to select the drive to which to save.<\/p>\n
The internal disk is the default. Unless you want to use an external USB device, you don’t need to select anything different.<\/p>\n
4. Select the directory in which you want to save the data.<\/p>\n
Press the Open button to move to a lower level, or press the Up button to move to an upper level.<\/p>\n
Depending on how you work, you may want to create different folders for different projects.<\/p>\n
To create a new directory, move to the level at which you want to create the directory, and use the Create Directory menu command on the Disk-Utility page.<\/p>\n
5. On the Disk-Save page, press the page menu button to open the page menu, and select the Save All command.<\/p>\n
This command will sve a set of .PCG, .SNG and .KSC files at once.<\/p>\n
6. Press the text edit button (“T”) and enter a name for the files. <\/p>\n
All of the files will share the same name, with different suffixes to show the data type (.PCG, .SNG, .KSC).
Note: If the Songs include audio tracks, the audio data will be saved as WAVE files. These are stored in a directory named after the .SNG plus “_A” (for Audio) at the end, in the same directory as the .SNG file itself. <\/p>\n
7. Press each Selection button to note the items being saved, such as the individual banks of Programs and Combinations. <\/p>\n
You can choose to save only some of the data. This is handy, for instance, when saving a bank of sounds to share with other musicians.<\/p>\n
8. Press the OK button to Save the data to disk. <\/p>\n
When the save is complete, the system returns to the Save page, and the display will show the resulting file(s). The amount of time required will depend on the amount of data being saved.<\/p>\n
If there are User Multisamples and Samples in RAM, they will be saved to disk as .KMP and .KSF files, respectively. Directories for these files will be created automatically. <\/p>\n
NOTE: When saving Combinations, remember to also save the Programs it uses, as well as the Drum Kits and Wave Sequences used by the Programs. Similarly, when saving Programs, remember to save the Drum Kits and Wave Sequences used by the programs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":0,"template":"","categories":[],"tags":[],"storecat":[],"itemids":[7781,7782,7783],"manufacturers":[33480],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\t\n
