PAGE 5 - IMPORT PCG
Use the Import PCG command to import Program data from
a Triton “.PCG” file. PCG is Korg’s native Program format, as
used by the Triton series of high-end workstations.
The Program can be imported right into the internal mem-
ory. However, if it uses imported samples, it is better to
import it into the same Flash Card were the samples are
stored.
Note: While Pa80 and Triton share most of their internal multi-
samples, some of them may differ. While reading a PCG file,
Pa80 tries to use exactly the same multisamples as in Triton. If
this is not possible, it looks for a similar multisample. If this too
is not possible, an <empty> multisample will be selected. Enter
the Program Edit mode, and select a multisample suitable for
the imported Program.
Note: Not all Triton’s PCG data are imported. Insert FX, EQ,
Arpeggio, Combi, Global and Drum Kit data are not loaded.
1. If importing the Program onto a Flash Card, insert the
card into the FLASH CARD slot.
1. Select the Import PCG page. The source directory
appears.
2. Use the F1 button to select the source device (HD or
FD).
3. Use the E-H VOLUME/VALUE buttons, or the TEMPO/
VALUE controls, to move the folder containing the file
to load to the first line of the display.
Press F3 (Open) to open the selected folder. Press F4
(Close) to close the current folder.
4. When the “.PCG” file to import is in the first line of the
display, press F2 (Select) to import it. After some sec-
onds, the Write Program window appears:
• Use the A VOLUME/VALUE buttons to select the
From parameter. Use these buttons or the TEMPO/
VALUE controls to select one of the Programs contained
into the selected “.PCG” file.
• Use the B VOLUME/VALUE buttons to select the To
parameter. Use these buttons or the TEMPO/VALUE
controls to select a target location into the AUTO-
LOAD.SET folder inside the card (the imported Pro-
gram will be a User Program, automatically loaded
when inserting the card, or turning the instrument on
with a card inserted in the slot) or into the USER area of
the internal memory.
Note: You cannot import Drum Kits.
• At any time, you may abort the Write operation by
pressing the EXIT button.
• At any time, you may exit the Sampling mode by
pressing one of the D VOLUME/VALUE buttons
(Abort).
5. Press ENTER to confirm the Import PCG operation.
The “Are you sure?” message appears. Press ENTER to
confirm, EXIT to abort and go back to the Write page.
6. When the Program is loaded, press RECORD to exit the
Sampling mode. If an internal multisample has not been
automatically selected during the Import, select the
imported Program, press MENU and jump to the “Sam-
ples” section to assign a multisample to the imported
Program.
PAGE 6 - IMPORT KMP
Use the Import command to import multisamples from a
Korg Trinity or Triton “.KMP” file, and save them into the
Flash Card. KMP is Korg’s native multisample format. You
may use these files to create new Programs on the Pa80.
Note: Pa80 can’t read multisamples saved on more than a single
floppy disk.
1. Insert a card into the FLASH CARD slot.
1. Select the Import KMP page. The source directory
appears.
2. Use the F1 button to select the source device (HD, FD).
3. Use the E-H VOLUME/VALUE buttons, or the TEMPO/
VALUE controls, to move the folder containing the file
to load to the first line of the display.
Press F3 (Open) to open the selected folder. Press F4
(Close) to close the current folder.
4. When the “.KMP” file to import is in the first line of the
display, press F2 (Select) to import it. The Write window
appears:
The From and To parameters are fixed, and cannot be
changed. The multisample will be saved into the Flash
Card.
