Re: receiving sysex data ?

2004-07-04 by phonophobie

Thanx. Setting a delay time higher then the standart settings in
midiox, did it! I now can receive sysex banks into my k5.

But still can´t send k5 internal patches/banks to my pc. 

I wonder why this could be something about a battery. hmmm.. i will
try to contact kawai maybe, too about this. I could ask for
replacements for the knobs also... maybe they have still something in
stock. I had good experience with kawai support sofar.

If someone knows something more about my problems - please comment. thanx!

Btw: 
i also installed that atari emu and will try those old programms :)
