Using the KSC Auto-Load list to select which samples to load
What’s a KSC?
KSCstandsforKorgSampleCollection.KSCfiles
containlinkstoSamplingMode,EXs,and/orUser
SampleBankdata,includingMultisamples,Samples,
andDrumSamples.LoadingaKSCfileloadsallofthe
linkeddata.
YoucanloadKSCfilesinDiskmode,andthe

Adding a KSC to the list
ToaddaKSCtothelist:
1. GototheGlobalBasic—KSCAuto‐Loadpage.
2. PresstheAddKSCbutton.
TheAddKSCfiledialogappears,allowingyouto
selectKSCfilesfromdisk.
3. SelectthedesiredKSCfiles.
YoucanuseMultipleselecttochoosemorethanone
file,ifdesired.
4. PressAdd.
Thesele
ctedKSCfileswillbeaddedtothelist.
Note:WhenyouloadaKSCinDiskmode,it’s
automaticallyaddedtothelistonatemporarybasis.If
youthenchecktheKSC’sAuto‐loadcheck‐box,the
KSCisaddedtothelistjustasifithadbe

KSCsareclearedfromthelistatthenextstartup.
Removing a KSC from the list
YoucanalsoremoveKSCsfromthelist.Notethatthis
onlyaffectsthecontentsofthelist;itdoesnotaffectthe
filesthemselves.Todoso:
1. SelecttheKSCfilethatyou’dliketoremove.
2. PresstheRemoveKSCbutton.
Aconfirmationdialogappears.
3. PressOK.
TheKSCfilewillberemovedfromthelist.
Selecting which KSC will be loaded
ToselectwhetherornotaKSCwillbeloaded:
1. Checkorun‐checktheAuto‐loadboxnexttothe
KSCnameinthelist.
That’sit!Thenexttimethatthesystempowerson,the
checkedKSCfileswillbeloaded.Youcanalsoload
themimmediately,asdescribedbelow.
