data and merge user-created programs in K2000 format, even when loading foreign
CD-ROM formats (Akai, Roland).
The “re-link by name” feature lets you save objects independently of their dependent
objects, which can be stored in separate files. Dependencies get re-linked when loaded,
regardless of where the objects and their dependents are stored.
The Backup and Copy utilities are faster and take full advantage of hierarchical file systems.
Existing K2000 disks are compatible with V3.0 and don’t require any conversion.
We’ve improved magneto-optical and SCSI drive compatibility.
The K2000 is now compatible with the Akai S3000 SCSI format.

music that was played "freely", without respect to the metronome.
