Its all there, waiting for you to press the buttons.if you are not willing to learn the terminology, or even how to edit something as simple as a damn kawai k4, then you ought not have it.once you learn how, i would be more than happy to tell you some nifty 'tips' and 'tricks' or even email you a sysex bank or two. One person gave you in depth help, and i gave you sincere advice. We arent your mom adn we dont owe you any help.
You can do this for each of the four sound sources in a patch (designated either 'P' or 'C',P = PCM wave, while C = Cyclic Wave. Then use the Value Slider (the one nearest the screen) to toggle between waves 1-256. To edit a sound source's wave, hit EDIT, then hit 14 (DCO). Each sound source in a patch is a wave, one of 256 possible waves. The 'IA-1', for example, is Internal, Bank A, sound 1 out of 16, hence the numbers labeled on each button, 1 through 16, which you can use to select different patches (sounds) in the bank.Every Patch contains up to 4 different sound sources. But if your presets are toast, then every sound, no matter which button is pressed, reads BRASS or something of the like, right?Well,The k4's architecture works like this: You get 4 sound banks of storage, labeled A, B, C, and D, on the buttons themselves. Ok, here goes.On your LCD screen, when you first power up the synth, you should see either SINGLE or MULTI on screen, followed by the name of the patch, such as SINGLE IA-1 Piano. How would I get a patch from my computer onto my keyboard?Thanks to anyone who can take a few minutes and get me going. Please give me an idiot walk through if you can.Also, I see a lot of patches available for download for these. Can anyone me a step by step so I can start using this thing? I have NO experience with any synth so yeah, I'm basically an idiot.
I'm haveing a h.l of a time figuring out how to modify sounds from step one to a finished patch by reading the manual. I'm assuming there is now way to get the basic sounds back. I just got a Kawai K4 for dirt cheap and I had to replace the battery.
