2. After you have selected a Voice Library, move your screen pointer over the link to the library file
and click. When a dialog box appears, select “Save File As...”
3. Select the location where you want to save the file and select “Save.” It is recommended that you
save the file to the hard drive on your computer.
4. Because the saved file is in .ZIP format, you will need to extract its contents before the file is usable.
Therefore, after the file is saved, open the folder contained the downloaded file, and right-click.
When a dialog box appears, select “Extract.”
5. After the .ZIP file has finished downloading, go to the directory on your hard drive which contains
the .ZIP file and extract the contents of the file. It is recommended that you allow the extraction
utility to determine the folder which will contain the extracted files. Do this same procedure for
each Voice Library file you want to extract.
6. After you are finished extracting .ZIP files, open the folder which contains the extracted file. The
file name(s) will be similar to this:
LibVLxxx.sys.
The numbers in the file name will be the same for the extracted .SYS file as for the host .ZIP file.
NOTE: The “x’s” indicate numbers. These will vary with each file name (“LibVL-Sk001,”
LibVL-Sk0051,” etc.).
7. Insert a USB Flash Drive that has been formatted for use with the Sk instrument into an open USB
port on your computer.
NOTE: If the USB Drive is not yet formatted for use with the Sk, follow the instructions starting
on page 162 for preparing the USB Drive for use with your instrument.
8. Open the “hammond” directory on the USB Drive, then the “Sk” sub-directory. You will see a
number of folders, one of will be “lib.” This folder is the one which will contain extracted Voice
Library files.
9. From the folder on your hard drive containing the extracted Voice Library file(s), files select the file
or files you want to copy, then copy them to the “lib” folder on your USB Drive.
You have now prepared the USB Flash Drive with all the necessary information for upgrading your SKX with new
voices. The following pages will explain in detail how to add these voices to your Sk instrument.
