Confused about what to buy?
Midi Tips December 17th, 2006We wanted to clarify what sounds to order and which format to choose when placing an order. It’s understandable with the large number of products and the many formats available, there is bound to be some confusion.
There are two main sections of our web site. The “Patch” Section and the “Sample City” Section. The Patch section has new sounds for your synthesizer and the Sample City section has new sounds for your sampler.
Before placing an order, please note the various “formats” available. There are several different formats, so take a look at the options available before ordering. Check out the page which fills you in on the different options. You can find it “OVER HERE”.
Also note that our order form has a “comments” section, where you can list the synthesizer or sampler that your working with. Please include that along with any other info about your computer set up. That will help us avoid mistakes when processing your order and make sure that you get the right sounds.
If you need any more info, just Email Us a brief description of your set up along with your questions.

Hi,
I’m a guitarist relatively new to the world of synthesizers. It’s a little overwhelming at the moment, to be honest, so I’m hoping you can provide me with a little guidance as well as what I specifically need.
The beginning of Tom Sawyer by Rush contains what I think is an old Oberheim sound (not too sure on that). I have two synthesizers – a Roland SH-32 and a Korg TR Music Workstation, both of which I can barely operate (I play the sounds that come with them, although mangle them quite thoroughly with the Roland). Do you have a patch (or sample) that I can use on either, although preferably the Korg?
I swear, I need an EE degree to figure this stuff out 😉

hi i just bought used Korg X3 workstation and i want to try some different sounds it only came with one floppy disk program bank. Do you have some x3 floppys i want some old school sounds for synth Saw, leads etc. Also can you use “say yamaha sound bank patches” would the floppy disks work?Thanks
March 6th, 2007 at 10:05 pm
Yes. Go to; https://www.kidnepro.com/KN/Korg/Korg.html
Click on the X3 link on the left side of the page. That will bring you to the X3 page. We have six volumes of sounds for it. Sorry, but the Yamaha sounds are not compatible.

I’AM REALLY NEW WITH KEYBOARD,I HAVE A KORG 01/WFD AND I WANT TO GET TO THE BEATS .
ALL I WANT IS HOW TO GET TO THE DIFFERENTS INSTRUMENTS
August 12th, 2007 at 1:53 pm
Interested in your disk with the Rhodes patches…
Also, have you created any synth sounds similar to the Oberheim
sounds used in the song “1984” by Van Halen?
I’ve gotten so-so with trying to develop this patch on my own, but am to the point where I would just as soon buy one.

Are you people thinking of programming any Yamaha W7 sounds anytime in the future?
I’ve down loaded from different sites just to find nothing in the files!
December 11th, 2007 at 12:16 am
Do you guys carry Alesis QS8 sounds?
January 3rd, 2008 at 10:49 am
i am wanting to get a M1/r rom card with Hammond B3, C3 sounds. Dose such a thing exist.
March 28th, 2008 at 10:45 pm
I must confessed that when it comes to downloading patches and not to mention saving them into the memory of my yamaha motif ES I am a novice. Would you send me some samples of what you have, with instructions how to load them in the Motif ES I need to purchase some arpeggios to use in my recordings. I also record from my Macintosh with Logic software.
March 28th, 2008 at 11:04 pm
Hi Elwin,
Here is how it works; For Vols 1-4; After you unzip the file you will find a folder with four files included;
Smart Media – .W2V and .W3V – These are the files that get’s saved to your smart media card. Using your smart-media reader/writer transfer them to a smart media card and then pop this card into your Motif’s card slot and load. Note that just the .W2V file will appear on your smart media card.
Voice Editor – .W2E and .W3E- These files are compatible with the Yamaha voice editor program. Open the file up in the voice editor program and you can load in the sounds via midi. Note that just the .W2E file will load in your software program.
For Vol #5 you will find a folder with two files included. Save them both to your smart media card and insert into your Motif. Select; File/Load/All. Data must be loaded in as type “all” since there are new multi samples included in this collection.
Motif Classic Smart Media Loading Instructions;
You can load data in two ways:
1. Press [FILE] and call up ALL VOICE under File Type. Locate your new Voice Bank file in the right hand side of the screen and press [ENTER]. All Voices will now load to your Voice User Bank. This will overwrite your existing User Voice data so be sure to backup anything you want to keep on SmartMedia or external storage device.
2. Press [FILE] and call up VOICE under File Type. Locate your new Voice Bank file in the right hand side of the screen and press [Enter]. You will now scroll through a list of all the Voices in that Bank. To Select Voices singly, press [ENTER] and choose a User Bank location for each voice in turn. Loading Voices singly will only overwrite a single User Voice Bank location, i .e. it’s a lot safer!
Smart Card Downloading Of Sounds to Mofti ES Series;
The Motif ES can read the .w2v and .w3v files. These are ALL VOICE files for the original Motif – and the Motif ES can definitely read them – you can load them by:
Press FILE
Press F3 LOAD
Select the file Type = ALL VOICE (loads all) or VOICE (to open and see a list of individuals).
The ES can load any ALL VOICE or VOICE file for the original Motif. It has a lookup table that will find the appropriate wave.
The extension must appear on the file for the Motif ES to be able to read and load the file. More info on Page 30 at very top of the Motif ES Owners manual.
If you need any more info just please contact us.

Just bought an AKAI S01 Mini Digital Sampler, with no floppy disks. Can you supply what I need?
April 5th, 2008 at 2:39 pm
Hi Mike,
Yes, all our Akai S1000 floppy disks are compatible with the S01.
You can find the list at: https://www.kidnepro.com/KN/AKAI/Akai_s1000.html
Just remember that the S01 will only read the sample data and not the program data.
April 18th, 2008 at 4:22 pm
I have a Triton 61 key work station, I purchased some sampler sounds from you but I think what I may have wanted was some additional programs or combinations. What products and format do you suggest I order?
April 18th, 2008 at 5:34 pm
Hi Rick,
Yes, we have a large selection of Triton PCG files which contain programs and combis. You can find complete info at;

Need the screamin b3 card for a roland d50
July 13th, 2008 at 7:02 am
Hi Andy,
Sorry, but those cards have not been made in many years. Our D50 Vol #1 collection has lot’s of great organ patches. You just need a midi interface to be able to load the sounds.

Hi
I am after a way in which I can convert Korg X3 .pcg files to KORG TRITON .pcg . . would you be able to help me with this ?
Thanks
Stu

Sorry, but that can not be done. There is no way to convert X3 to Triton.

I am looking for a ORIENTAL/ASIAN GONG wave for my Ensoniq TS-10. Do you have a gong sample on any of your disks? Thank you for your help…Fred
February 2nd, 2010 at 12:46 pm
Hi Fred,
We don’t have that in our TS10 collection, but there are several Gongs on our “Effectron” WAV CD. You can import those sounds into most any hardware or software sampler. More info at:

Hi! I have a KORG Triton Extreme, i really love all of GENESIS Tony Banks sounds that he uses ie., Stings, Choirs, Pads, Organs etc…..
Is anything available for you KidNepro that can help?
September 7th, 2010 at 7:56 pm
tengo un Akai 5000 y libreria del 1000 y 3000, cuando compre el 5000 me dieron el CD nº 1 del 5000, con este CD va todo perfecto, pero cuando cambio a la libreria del 1000 y 3000, me suena todo con mucha reververación, ¿como puedo solucionarlo. Gracias
September 9th, 2010 at 7:08 pm
Hi Adrian,
Check out Vol 1 – Classic Synths & Vol 8 – Analog Heaven. There are lot’s of cool Genesis sounds in those two collections.

Hello, I have been browsing through your Q & A and I am developing a solid appreciation of your your customer service style. I will be buying lots and lots from you in the future, however, I purchased the new PSR-e423 (super sounds)keyboard from Yamaha for a studio that I am setting up after a long break. It does have 32 voice polyphony and 16 voice multitimbral but the sounds and arpeggios are hard to access with the CI2. I purchased the e423 keyboard as well as a Steinberg/Yamaha CI2 Hardware interface that sports a cut down version of CUBASE 5 and it seems that they neglected to inform me at the time that the two were not really compatible. This is one reason that I wrote to compliment you because I would not be in this pickle if you had counseled me. When I save up enough pennies for the right Controller keyboard, I will be back to your sight in a flash and buy some hardware and software. Reading your Q & A is helping me to make a sober keyboard decision. Thank you and please keep up the great work, Patrick DeHart

Thanks Patrick!

Hi I have a Korg M3 with radius board and really I’m struggling to get the synthesiser sounds for Lilly Allen’s version of Mr Blue sky. Anything you can do to help would be hugely appreciated. Michael
September 16th, 2011 at 1:34 am
Hi Michael,
Sorry, but we don’t have anything like that for the M3.

How come your 5th set for the Yamaha Motif won’t work on the rack? What makes it different?
December 3rd, 2011 at 7:18 pm
Hi Jeff,
That one has new samples included. The rack does not import samples.
December 29th, 2011 at 8:22 pm
I own an old but good Korg Poly 800 Mk II and I’m very interested to buy your patch collection for this instrument. On the page of this patches you give the choice of ordering them on cassette tape or download them as aiff- or wav-files. Do I understand correctly that these are the same files (functionally) with the only difference that de aiff-files can be loaded from my Mac into the synth as if it were a cassette-deck? I do not see this clearly in your instruction-page, so I want to be sure.
Thanks, Hans.

I just purchased the JV80,but am having trouble finding data/pcm cards..
July 4th, 2012 at 1:56 am
I am somewhat of a novice keyboard player. I have a 76 key Triton Le and play in live situations not for beats or recording. I am in need of additonal old analog type synth sounds and beefer truer horn sounds. How do I get the sounds to my board if you have them. There is something called and SCSI slot that is vacant. Is that what it is for. Please help
July 4th, 2012 at 8:19 am
Hi Julius,
V1 Classic Synths has lot’s of analog synth sounds. After you download the sounds from us, save the file(s) to a compact flash card. Then you can load in our sounds from your Triton’s Smart Media Device. The SCSI port is for hooking up a CD-ROM or Hard drive. That will give you access to additional sounds, but is not needed to use ours.
November 23rd, 2012 at 4:52 am
Hello,
I have a korg tr 61 key music wk station w sample upgrade. Will these patches remain in my keyboard memory along w the factory per sets? And accessed the same way ? If so how many could I store? Thx.
July 27th, 2014 at 11:04 pm
Hi,
I have a Motif XF6, and I play for a traditional black church, and Quartet group. The factory presets, and performances aren’t very useful for my needs. I’ve purchased sounds/loops from bigcitiloops, keyz, and producer loops but the formats are wrong. Can you offer help with preset performances, and steps in loading for a motif xf, like you provided for the motif ex. Thanking you in advance.
