dumped. Therefore, if you want to get sample number 219 from the K2vx but your program
canÕt transfer samples at numbers greater than 128, specify number 19 (ThereÕs an exception to
this; please see ÒTroubleshooting a MIDI Sample DumpÓ later in this section).
Loading a Sample into the K2vx from another K2vx
Connect the MIDI ports of the two K2vxs in a closed-loop conÞguration as described for the
Sampler/Computer to K2vx procedure above.
On the source K2vx, go to the Sample Editor and select the sample you wish to transfer. To do
this, start in Program mode and press EDIT, followed by the KEYMAP soft button. Now you
should be on the KEYMAP page. Now move the cursor to the Sample parameter, use any data
entry method to select the desired sample, then press EDIT.
To start the sample transfer, press the Dump soft button. A dialog will appear, suggesting the
ID for the sample to be dumped to the destination K2vx. The source K2vx will suggest the same
ID as it uses for the sample, but you can change the destination ID with any data entry method.
If you choose the default by pressing Yes, the sample will transfer to the same ID on the
destination K2vx as it is on the source K2vx.
Dumping from the K2vx to a Sampler
This procedure is the same as dumping a sample from one K2vx to another. This will work only
if the sampler supports the MIDI Sample Dump Standard.
Dumping a Sample from the K2vx to a MIDI Data Recorder
This can be accomplished in an open-loop conÞguration, by connecting the MIDI Out port of
the K2vx to the MIDI In port of the MIDI Data Recorder. Go to the Sample Editor and select the
K2vx sample you wish to transfer. Set up the MIDI Data Recorder to begin recording, and press
the Dump soft button on the Sample Editor page. This will bring up a dialog allowing you to
change the sample number in the dump if you wish. In most cases, you will just use the default
value. The K2vxÕs MIDI mode LED will ßash while the data transfer is in progress.
Loading a Sample into the K2vx from a MIDI Data Recorder
Connect the MIDI Out port of the Data Recorder to the MIDI In port of the K2vx. Load the
appropriate Þle containing the MIDI Sample Dump data into the Data Recorder, and send the
Þle. The K2vxÕs MIDI mode LED will ßash during this procedure.
Accessing a New K2vx Sample
First, select the K2vx program you wish to play the new sample from, and press the EDIT
button. Then select the layer you wish (using the CHAN/BANK buttons if necessary), press the
KEYMAP soft button, and select a keymap. Use the default keymap called Ò168 SilenceÓ if you
donÕt want to alter any existing keymaps.
Now, enter the Keymap Editor by pressing EDIT once again. Use the Sample parameter to
select the new sample. If the new sample was loaded from another K2vx, it will have the same
ID as it did on the other K2vx. If the sample was loaded from any other source, its ID will be
deÞned as described above (in the section called ÒLoading Samples with the MIDI Standard
Sample DumpÓ).
The name of the sample will be assigned by the K2vx if the sample has been assigned to a
previously unused ID. In most cases, the sample will have a name of ÒNew Sample - C 4Ó.
