Using an SD card
You can use an SD card to save or load inter-
nal data.
Audio les (WAVE format or AIFF format) that
you’ve created on your computer can also be
loaded.
Never turn off the power or remove the SD card while
data is being saved or the card is being formatted. Doing so
may render the SD card unusable.
TIP The SD card is not included. It must be pur-
chased separately.
TIP The KP3+ supports SD cards of up to 2GB ca-
pacity and SDHC cards of up to 32GB capacity.
TIP The KP3+ can handle up to 256 les in total.
The unit will not recognize any les that exceed the
256 le limit.
TIP The KP3+ may take time to recognize or write
les on large capacity cards.
About the write protect setting of an SD card
SD cards have a write protect switch that pre-
vents the data from being overwritten acciden-
tally and lost. If you set the card’s switch to the
protected setting, it will be impossible to write
or erase data on the card, or to format it. If you
need to save edited data on the card, move the
switch back to its original unprotected setting.
Handling SD cards
Please carefully read and observe the instruc-
tions that came with your SD card.
About the contents of the SD card
The following les and folders will be created
in the root directory of the card.
Files you can save
SAMPLE Data 00–99.p3s
GLOBAL 0–9.p3g
PROGRAM MEMORY Set 0–9.p3p
All Data 0–9.p3a
Files you can load
SAMPLE Data 00–99.p3s
00–99.kps
00–99.wav
00–99.aif
GLOBAL 0–9.p3g
0–9.kpg
PROGRAM MEMORY Set 0–9.p3p
All Data 0–9.p3a
0–9.kpa
TIP: If an All data le named “0.p3a” exists on the
card, this le will automatically be loaded when you
start up the KP3+.
TIP The WAVE or AIFF les that can be loaded must
be 8/16-bit linear PCM mono or stereo les. 8-bit
data will be loaded by lling the lacking bits with
zeros. When loading les created on the computer,
the le name must be changed to a two-digit integer
(00–99), and the le must be placed in the root folder
of the SD card.
TIP When WAVE or AIFF les are loaded as sample
data, the le is loaded with the appropriate settings
for the loop. Therefore, it may be played back at a
different pitch than on your computer. To play back at
the same pitch, adjust the BPM setting on the KP3 +.
In addition, if the data is longer than can be recorded
in one bank, it will be truncated. If the data is shorter
than can be recorded in one bank, the remaining
length will be handled as silence.
TIP This device can use les saved with KP3. How-
ever, the PROGRAM MEMORY settings cannot be
loaded since they are incompatible with this device.
