I’m Roel, a jazz trumpet player and classical composer with a passion for synths and keys. Recently bought an SP4-8 and a UB-Xa. Looking forward sharing thoughts and other helpfull stuff here. Right now I’m tweaking the SP to fit my needs. The Horowitz is my favourite AP, and I successfully got rid of the vibrato on the KB-3 sounds.

All the best! Roel.

2700 members!!! And all of you real! No bots, no ghost accounts, just real Kurzweil users. It’s awesome!

The time of the year to the renewal of the website server and domain is coming. As you all know, this site is NOT sponsored monetarily by Kurzweil. Yes, I work there. No, the company doesn’t pay for this site. That gives us some freedom here to be independent. Every “good bunch of years” I might get a check from the Google Ads that will cover part of that year’s cost only! So, I cannot rely just on that to fund the site.

In the past we used to have a Donation button but those buttons stopped working as they used to as PayPal is now treating them as a “charity org”.

But, there are TWO ways for you to still send me a voluntary contribution (Recommended $5) and that’s via regular PayPal, if you have an account, or via Venmo. For both ways, you first send me an email to ksetlistadm@gmail.com and there I’ll give you the details. That way we’ll keep avoiding bots, spammers and scammers.

This donation is totally optional. Ksetlist is free. But it helps.

Thank you all and please, keep on sharing!!!

Regards,

Fran

  • Hi everyone!  My name is Alex Mysliwiec and I’m the owner of a K2700.  Been loving the instrument ever since I got it several months ago and still learning new things!  I’m very excited to see what others are using for their sounds and learning some tips as well! 😀

    THANKS !!

    Hi,
     
    I've got the PC4 SE Editor on a WIN10 PC connected to my PC4 SE and when working with MULTI's, everything works as expected:
     
    * when I click on the name of a User MULTI in the Editor, the MULTI on the keyboard changes
    * when I make edits in the editor, they happen on the keyboard
     
    However, when I do the exact same thing with User Programs:
     
    * when I click on the name of a User Program in the Editor, the Program on the keyboard does NOT change
    * when I make edits in the editor, they do NOT get applied on the keyboard
     
    When I click programs and make Edits in the Editor...I DO see the 2 Midi "Activity" icons on the keyboard display panel light up...so it seems to be aware that I'm using the Editor...but nothing actually happens to the Program
    I'm trying to make edits to.
     
    Any thoughts about why this is happening and how I can fix it?
     
    Thank you !!

    I’m Kevin Miller from the northern suburbs of Cincinnati.  I recently bought a new K2700 after my beloved K2500 came ever closer to giving up the ghost. I had it since 1999 and it kept me sane and happy. 
         I’m strictly an at-home guy, playing keyboards and guitar (poorly and often) in my home studio. I’m eager to learn more about sound creation with my new beast!
