Re: [kawaik3zone] Patch Storage on Computer?

2007-02-04 by M V

Can you use the K3 to control the computer MIDI/audio card?
(When you play the K3, do you get sound from your computer?).
If you can't do this, then your MIDI interface is not working
correctly.  If you can do this, then it would be a setup problem
with the software you're using.

(I love my K3s by the way...bought mine new in 1986, and used
mine everyday on the road - working musician across the country -
for 15 years. In '89 I started using a stripped-down PC onstage 
to control all the MIDI stuff - keys, effects, lighting, etc.
The K3 is still in great shape, and is extremely useful for
creating analog synth sounds on the fly, adjusting parameters
while playing and staying in tune - something the '70's analog
units had a problem with. And you can emulate pretty closely the
patches from other units, Rolands, etc. I have a lot of keyboards, 
and I don't think of any one of them as being the "best", because 
each unit fills a specific need, but the K3 has served me very 
well for years. I still use it.)
