Sound Memory Configuration
Each KT sound is a complex structure consisting of up to three voices per key, and a
programmable effects setup. The KT can give you access to up to 468 different sounds from
which to choose at any time:
• i:INT — 80 sounds are stored in the KT Internal RAM Memory (Random Access Memory).
The i:INT sounds can be either Standard sounds or Drum sounds.
• r:ROM — Another 80 sounds are permanently stored in ROM (Read Only Memory). Like the
Internal (INT) sounds, the ROM sounds are contained within the KT; but unlike the Internal
(INT) sounds, they cannot be modified or replaced.
• a:CARD and b:CARD — 160 additional sounds can be stored in a PCMCIA card (80 sounds
in group A, and 80 sounds in group B) which is plugged into the card slot. As with the
Internal (i:INT) bank, sounds stored in the card can be Standard or Drum sounds.
• r:DRUM — Sound locations 80 through 99 each contain a Drum sound. These 20 Drum
sounds are available whether you’re currently in the i:INT, r:ROM, or card (a:CARD or
b:CARD) banks. The r:DRUM sounds are permanently stored in ROM memory and cannot
be modified or replaced.
• General MIDI Sounds — There are 128 “hidden” General MIDI sounds that can be accessed
by pressing the{GENERAL_MIDI} button.
