Atari-Midi Archives

I don't know anything about the Kawai Spectra, but you might want to try two universal editors/librarians:  MIDIQuest from SoundQuest and UniSyn from MOTU.

Good luck,

Jeff

Subject: [atari-midi-archives] Help finding SoundDiver! or better software to operate Kawai Spectra via Win XP

            Hello, I recently got ahold of a Kawai Spectra synth which I've become

quite attached to. I have been trying to connect it to my PC running

Windows XP. I noticed that some users made available a patch editor

for it that runs on SoundDiver. I then found out SoundDiver is owned

by apple, who actually discontinued the software several years ago. My

first thought was that it might be possible to still obtain a pc

version of sounddiver on the internet somehow, but it seems nearly

impossible. 



I was wondering if there is any other way in which I can use the patch

editor for the Kawai Spectra eventhough it was created to be used with

SoundDiver; is there any new librarian/midi software that can

communicate with my old synthethizer? I don't know about computer

programing or have much experience with sound modules or synths but I

am getting quite confortable with my KC10. Well, hopefully someone

might be able to help me on this. Could any of you share SoundDiver 3

or else point me in the direction of it? 

Perhaps there is a better software that is at least in the market

right now and which I could use to operate and interact with my Kawai

Spectra via Windows XP; any suggestions?



thanks a lot. I really appreciate any help.
