Subject: [k5synth] Hello - I just joined

Hey all,
I just joined and wanted to say hello. I have a k5 on the way and I
should get it this Friday. Anyway, I was debating about getting the
synth - and my main gripe was that programing all that harmonic
content is very hard. What made me pull the trigger was this group
when I read up on Leslie Sanford's "Wave Maker" and that he was able
to resynth both the k3 and the DW. I just can't explain how cool that
is - thanks very much Leslie for doing this. If Kawai shipped
software like this when they released the K5 Yamaha would have been in
big trouble. I already loaded up your program (and all the other
nasties you need to run it) and have been experimenting with some
wave files. I can't wait to try loading things up when my K5 arrives.

Just a bit more about me, my main axe is a K2000 and I recently got an
Ion (which I just love). I love to program (the Kuzweil is work, the
Ion is a dream - I fugure without software the K5 basically can't be
programed.) So my setup has samples and VA covered in spades, but I
hope to get some in-your-face digital harshness out of the K5 - I just
don't have that in my set up right now. If anyone is interested, you
can check out some of my stuff at:

The last song uses a Kawai K1II (that was stolen shortly after this
recording) I would love to resynth a K1 for the K5!

Anyway, I use a PC and I am trying to get that Atari Dr. T editor up
and running and am having problems. The Atari emulator works, but I
don't know how to run the Dr. T files. That is, do I need to create a
"disk image" or create an Atari drive that has the Dr. T files...if
anyone is running Dr.T and can give me some tips on how to get the
program started it would be much appreciated.
