Fortunately, the Kawai K4/K4r was a rather popular synth, perhaps
because of its low cost, straightforward architecture, and interesting
sounds. There are editors available for nearly every platform,
including Atari ST, MacOS, MacOS X, Windows, and Linux. The K4 is
supported by jsynthlib, a free Java-based multisynth librarian/editor.
Jsynthlib works with MacOS 9, MacOS X, Windows, and Linux and is
available here:
