K5synth

Hi there!

I just picked up a K5, decent enough price.  It's in great shape physically, just a dim LED backlight, but it's still quite readable in my studio, so I'm okay with that for now.  What is frustrating me right now is uploading patches into it.  

What I have to connect to the synth is Midiquest, fully configured for the K5 (along with my D-50 and DX11 in the studio window), and a copy of the K5 Librarian from the Kfuenf site.  I'm able to do dumps of the bank that's already in there and I now have backups of the data from both programs (Midiquest's is proprietary).  And when I open a patch in Midiquest, I'm able to change the parameters in the patch and change the sounds.  I haven't tried saving the changes yet . . . .  

So far, everything works similarly to my other synths.  However, I'm unable to transfer a patch bank from my computer to the K5.  I have both TRS and RCV set to "on" with the proper channels for each.  I select transfer from the program, but nothing happens.  No error messages either.  What am I missing?  My machine has OS v. 1.0.

Something is going on, though.  The patch bank in the machine is not original, and had a patch named "Jupiter" as patch 12 in both banks A and D.  So I used that patch to experiment with, knowing a copy was elsewhere in machine memory.  Somehow, though, and I don't know when or how, patch 1 in bank A was accidentally overwritten -- by "Jupiter".  So now I have three copies.  So I was able to upload at least one patch; probably with the Kfuenf program.

Any suggestions?
