Getting A Sample Into A Sample Editor From The K2600; Loading A Sample Into The K2600 From Another K2600; Dumping From The K2600 To A Sampler; Dumping A Sample From The K2600 To A Midi Data Recorder - Kurzweil K2600 Musician’s Reference

program canÕt transfer samples at numbers greater than 128, specify number 19 (ThereÕs an
exception to this; please see Troubleshooting a MIDI Sample Dump on page 6-6).
At this point, youÕre ready to try loading a sample. See Accessing a New K2600
Sample on page 6-6 to learn how to use samples once theyÕve been dumped to the K2600.

Getting a Sample into a Sample Editor from the K2600

Connect the MIDI ports of the K2600 and the computer/sampler in a MIDI loop as described for
the Sampler/Computer to K2600 procedure above.
Access the computer softwareÕs ÒGet SampleÓ page (it might be called something different). As
with loading a sample into the K2600, the K2600 adds 200 to dump request sample numbers
between 1 and 199. K2600 samples with IDs from 1 to 199 are ROM samples, and cannot be
dumped. Therefore, if you want to get sample number 219 from the K2600 but your program
canÕt transfer samples at numbers greater than 128, specify number 19 (ThereÕs an exception to
this; please see Troubleshooting a MIDI Sample Dump on page 6-6).

Loading a Sample into the K2600 from another K2600

Connect the MIDI ports of the two K2600s in a MIDI loop as described for the Sampler/
Computer to K2600 procedure above.
On the source K2600, 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 K2600. The source K2600 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 K2600 as it is on the source K2600.

Dumping from the K2600 to a Sampler

This procedure is the same as dumping a sample from one K2600 to another. This will work only
if the sampler supports the MIDI Sample Dump Standard.

Dumping a Sample from the K2600 to a MIDI Data Recorder

This can be accomplished by connecting the MIDI Out port of the K2600 to the MIDI In port of
the MIDI Data Recorder. Go to the Sample Editor and select the K2600 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 K2600Õs MIDI
mode LED will ßash while the data transfer is in progress.
Loading a Sample into the K2600 from a MIDI Data Recorder
Connect the MIDI Out port of the Data Recorder to the MIDI In port of the K2600. Load the
appropriate Þle containing the MIDI Sample Dump data into the Data Recorder, and send the
Þle. The K2600Õs MIDI mode LED will ßash during this procedure.
