Songs

Song does not play correctly after being
loaded
In the dialog box when you saved the data, did you
check all of the items that you wanted to save?
Are the Programs used by the Song the same as when
the song was created?
• If you have switched Program banks, you can use
the page menu command Change all bank
references to change the Program bank for each
track of a Song. For more information, see "Change
all bank references" on page 807 of the Parameter
Guide.
• When saving the song, it is best to use Save All or
Save PCG & SEQ so that the programs are saved
together with the song. Then when loading, load
both the .PCG and the .SEQ data.
Have you loaded the multisamples and samples used
by the program?
Audio tracks don't play
The audio files for the Song must be stored within a
directory at the same directory level as the .SNG file,
and that directory must be have the same name as the
.SNG file , followed by "_A" (for "Audio"). For
instance, if the .SNG file is named WAMOZART.SNG,
its audio folder must be named WAMOZART_A. If
you move or rename the .SNG file, make sure to move
or rename the main audio folder as well.
If the folder containing the WAVE files for the song you
loaded has the wrong name, the icon is shown in gray.
Could you have moved or renamed the folder?
Loading OASYS-format Songs
The KRONOS can play Songs created on the Korg
OASYS. However, the name of the audio directory will
need to be changed slightly.
OASYS files were limited to 8 characters, and so the
name of the audio file directory was typically
abbreviated. For instance, if the .SNG file was named
WAMOZART.SNG, the OASYS audio folder would be
named WAMOZA_A.
Before you load an OASYS .SNG file, edit the name of
the directory so that it matches the KRONOS standard:
the same name as the .SNG file , followed by "_A" (for
"Audio"). In the case above, you'd rename
"WAMOZA_A" to "WAMOZART_A."
