Triple Mode programs created with the K2600 cannot be loaded, however the K2700
improves upon this feature with Cascade Mode. Cascade Mode allows a program signal to be
routed through up to 32 layers of DSP algorithms (for details see “Alt Input” on page 3-55).
All K series Setup objects can be loaded and converted to Multis. FX cannot be converted
and must be edited after loading.
Loading FM Preset Files (.SYX)
e K2700 can load .SYX les containing FM presets from classic 6 operator FM
synthesizers. Loaded FM presets can be edited in Program Mode and combined with
additional layers and VAST synthesis features. For details on editing FM programs, see
“Editing FM Layers” on page 3-87.
Loading Audio Sample Files (.WAV and .AIF)
From the LOAD page, .WAV and .AIF audio Sample les can be loaded and used with user
created Keymaps (see “Building a Keymap” on page 5-8 and “Editing Samples” on page
5-10.) Mono and stereo les can be loaded, 8 or 16 bit, with sample rates up to a maximum
of 96000 Hz. Once Samples are loaded to the K2700’s user sample ash memory, Samples
remain in the K2700 even when the power is o, until they are manually deleted. Also, once
Samples are loaded to the K2700’s user sample ash memory, there is no load time for those
user Samples when turning on the K2700.
To load a user audio le, select a .WAV or .AIF le from the LOAD page le list and press
the FILL soft button. On the “Fill from ID” page, select an ID then press the FILL soft
button again to begin loading samples into unused user IDs.
On the Keymap Editor Main page (see “The Keymap Editor” on page 5-1) loaded audio
Samples can be selected in the Sample eld. In the Sample eld, you can nd the audio le
you loaded by entering 4096 (or whichever ID you lled from) on the alphanumeric keypad
and pressing ENTER. If you have previously loaded user Samples, you may have to scroll
above 4096 (or whichever ID you lled from) as your Sample will have been loaded into the
next available unused ID.
Loading MIDI Song Files (.MID)
MIDI song les (.MID) can be loaded, they appear as Songs in Song Mode. Songs that use
the General MIDI sound set are not supported and must be edited after loading to select
appropriate instrument Programs for each track.
