About AKAI Program files
AKAI format uses the concept of "key groups." For each key
zone, up to four samples can be assigned, and these four can
be switched or crossfaded by velocity. Key zones can also be
crossfaded.
If you load an AKAI Program file into the TRITON Extreme
with "Advanced Conversion Load" unchecked, a single
sample will correspond to each key zone, meaning that a
maximum of four multisamples will be used to create a key
map in the velocity order of each key group. Also, key zones
will not be crossfaded.
Example:
An AKAI format Program file "TESTPROGRAM" consists
of four key groups, and each key group consists of up to
three velocity zones. Key groups 1 and 2 are a layer whose
low range is the same. When this is loaded into the TRITON
Extreme, three multisamples will be created, collected by
velocity zone, and the numerals 1, 2, and 3 will be appended
to each multisample name. At this time, the top key will be
determined by the bottom key of the sample that is assigned
at the right, and if the bottom key is the same (key groups 1
and 2 in the diagram), the higher-numbered key group will
be used.

If you load with "Advanced Conversion Load" checked,
Program file parameters such as key group, key group zone,
oscillator, pitch, filter, amp/pan, LFO, and EG will be con-
verted into a TRITON Extreme program or programs + com-
bination as they are loaded.
Multisamples and samples will also be convert-loaded at the
same time.
For the loading procedure, refer to p.184.
