malletKAT User Manual (ver.07-17-18)
User Kits for the KS with Built in Sounds
Alternate Mode uses sound engine from Kurzweil Music Systems that has been modified especially for the
MalletKAT and trapKAT. We picked our favorite 128 sounds and programmed them into the User Kits. That
means that you do not have to know about the innards of MalletKAT programming in order to enjoy playing. Just
scroll through the kits and play. All of the work has been done for you.
The Kurzweil (KS) sound card was discontinued in December 2018. It is included here for reference.
In these 128 User Kits, we loaded in the vibraphone and marimba sounds as well as the orchestral timpani, bells,
chimes, xylophone, orchestral percussion, ethnic percussion drum sets as well as keyboards, basses, orchestral
instruments, vocals, synth sounds and more. These sounds will keep you busy for quite some time. But if you
want hear more, you can go through the instrument list of over 1000 sounds and create your own User Kits.
