To load individual objects, use the LOAD page to highlight a compatible file type, then
press the Open soft button to view a list of objects within the file. The objects in the list are
grouped by type (Programs, Multis, etc.). Scroll through the list using the alpha wheel, cursor
buttons, or -/+ buttons. Each line in the list represents one object, and displays the object's
number in the list, as well as the object's type, original ID number, and name.
Press the Select button to select or deselect the highlighted object for loading. Multiple
objects can be selected. An asterisk (*) is placed to the left of selected objects.
Press the Fill soft button to load the selected objects, or press the Cancel soft button to
return to the file list dialog.
Compatible Files
The Forte SE can load its own .FSE files, as well as file types from other Kurzweil products
such as .FOR, .ASE, .ART, .P3A, .PC3, .P3K, .PLE, and .SPX files. When loading file
types other than .FSE, the Forte SE will attempt a conversion of the objects in those files.
The Forte SE can often exactly match the sound and function of the original objects. In
some cases object parameters may not be converted and must be adjusted by the user after
conversion (see below for details.)
Importing Program Objects
When importing a Program object from a .P3A, .P3K, .PC3, .PLE, or .SPX file, Parameter
info names and some controller assignments may need to be manually adjusted.
Importing Multi/Setup Objects
When importing a Setup or Multi object from a .FOR, .P3A, .PC3, .P3K, .PLE, or .SPX
file, any Zone above Zone 8 will not be imported. Riffs will not be imported.
Importing Forte (.FOR) Objects
Some Forte Programs (stored in .FOR files) may not be compatible if they use keymaps
and samples that are not available on the Forte SE. It may be possible to import and edit
these Programs on the Forte SE and select Forte SE keymaps that sound very similar to the
incompatible Forte keymaps. For example, the Forte SE does not have the same Japanese
Grand Piano keymaps and samples that the Forte has, but it does have similar keymaps that
use a reduced set of the Forte Japanese Grand Piano samples.
