Title: Downloading M1 factory sounds??
Post by lynnk on Jun 24^th, 2004, 7:55am

Hi there,

Am a complete novice!! Help!!! Have just replaced my Korg M1 battery and I want to download the factory sounds back into it. I don't have any soundcard or even a manual as I got the Korg secondhand. I've no clue how to do it. Yesterday I bought a Tascam US122 which connects via USB to the computer. I've hooked up the Tascam to the keyboard using MIDI cables (in to out and vice versa), but what do I do next? I've found sites and zip files which say they have the factory sounds on them, but I don't know how to transfer them. I got Cubasis and Gigastudio with the Tascam...

I'll appreciate all help given!

Thanks,
Lynn

You can download .SYX files (raw SysEx) to the M1 using MIDI-OX. Download, and install it. Launch it. Options | MIDI Devices... Select US-122 MIDI In for Input US-122 MIDI Out for Output. View | SysEx... then Command Window | Load File... Choose the .SYX file. Command Window | Send SysEx

Thanks a million! Couldn't manage to download MIDI-OX onto XP computer...? but figured out anyhow that my keyboard had the wrong setting. Have all my factory sounds back on at least ;D.

I'm not sure why you couldn't download MIDI-OX (what happened?), but I'm glad you're back in business.
