This is for all of you w/ a Kawai K1 and an ibm pc/at. Has anyone managed to find a public domain patch librarian/editor or has created one for their system? I just bought my K1, and I'm very impressed with the sounds, however I'd like to be able to do all of the editing from my computer using my MIDI setup. Computer: Kaypro 286i, Music Quest PC MIDI card, EGA Synth: K1 keyboard, no effects or rackmounts. _______________________________________________________________________ Daniel Bernstein " I am awake...

The only thing I have been able to do is use Cakewalk Pro as a generic librarian. So.... I would also like to hear about the results of your quest.... Did you also mention some patch trades? It shouldn't make a difference, but is your K1 a K1II (two), or just a K1? I have the K1II keyboard (effects & drum) and K1m module (no effects or drum). If you could, post your results, as there may be more of us strange people with IBM type machines and Kawai keyboards. sp .Steve Pirk.......midit.....Voice: (714) 952-5516......................... ..McDonnell Douglas M&E..Internet: pirk@dev0.mdcbbs.com................... ...5701 Katella Ave..........UUCP: uunet!mdcbbs!dev0.mdcbbs!pirk.......... ....Cypress, CA. 90630........PSI: PSI%31060099980019::DEV0::PIRK......... -------------------------------------------------------------------------- "The opinions expressed herein, are probably not those of MDC, and I'm not sure if I can even call them mine......."

I'm not a IBM/Kawai user but there is a BBS called MIDI TECH in pittsburgh that specializes in Kawai/IBM stuff. I believe there are K1 editors and every PD patch there is. But alas I can't use them because I have a MAC. The number is MIDI TECH 412-771-5763. The Sysop is Kris Caledonia. A nice guy. -James
