Loading sample data
The paragraphs 22) Load .KSC, 23) Load .KMP, and 24)

.KSF which follow explain how Korg format PCM
data files are loaded into the sample memory (RAM) of the
TRITON STUDIO.
About the sample memory (RAM)
The TRITON STUDIO is shipped from the factory with 16
Mbytes of sample memory (RAM). (One 16 Mbyte SIMM is
installed) By installing SIMM modules into any and all of
the three 72 pin slots, you can expand the sample memory
(RAM) to a maximum of 96 Mbytes (three 32 Mbyte
SIMM’s).
It is not possible to load an individual sample that is
larger than 16 Mbytes.
Limitations on the maximum number that can be loaded
• Multisamples: up to 1,000
• Samples: up to 4,000
• Samples used by multisamples: up to 4,000
About Korg format PCM data files
KSC files:
Files with an filename extension of KSC (Korg Script) con-
tain the names of .KMP and .KSF files.
When a .KSC file is loaded, the .KMP and .KSF files whose
names it contains will also be loaded. This is a convenient
way to load multiple multisamples and samples at once.
When saving, a .KSC file and a directory with the same
name as the .KSC file will be created. The .KMP files and
.KSF files listed in the .KSC file will be saved in this direc-
tory.
KMP files:
Files with a filename extension of KMP (Korg Multisample
Parameter) contain the parameters which make up a single
multisample. These parameters also include the filename of
the .KSF files that are used by that multisample, so when a
.KMP file is loaded, the necessary .KSF files will also be
loaded at the same time.
When saving, a .KMP file and a directory with the same
name will be created, and the .KSF files used by the multi-
sample will be saved in this directory.
KSF files:
Files with a filename extension of KSF (Korg Sample File)
contain the parameters and waveform data which make up
a single sample. A .KSF file can be used as one of the sam-
ples used by a multisample. A .KSF file can also be selected
and used as a drum sample for a drum kit.
Loading multiple files
You can use wild cards to specify multiple .KMP, .KSF, .AIF,
.WAV, AKAI Program, and AKAI Sample files, and load
them simultaneously.
This capability can be used in 23) Load .KMP, 24) Load
.KSF, 25) Load .AIF, 26) Load .WAV, 27) Load AKAI
Sample File, and 28) Load AKAI Program file (
☞p.164)
In the Load dialog box, press the text edit button to access
the text input dialog box.
By specifying “*” or “?” as wild cards in the selected file-
name, multiple sample files that have the same filename
extension (same file format) and exist in the selected direc-
tory can be loaded simultaneously.
Example) A folder contains the following files, and you
select “SFX_A_00.WAV” and specify wild cards to load mul-
tiple files simultaneously
PIANO.WAV, SFX_A_00.WAV, SFX_A_01.WAV,
SFX_B_00.WAV, SFX_B_01.WAV, SFX_C_00.WAV
Select “SFX_A_00.WAV,” and choose “Load selected” to
access the dialog box.
Press the text edit button ( ) to access the text input dia-
log box, and specify the desired wildcards. ( ☞For the
renaming procedure, refer to BG p.57)
“*” specifies the subsequent characters as a wild card.
“?” specifies only one character as a wild card.
1) If you specify SFX_A* and execute loading, the follow-
ing files will be loaded.
SFX_A_00.WAV, SFX_A_01.WAV
2) If you specify SFX_?_00 and execute loading, the follow-
ing files will be loaded.
SFX_A_00.WAV, SFX_B_00.WAV, SFX_C_00.WAV
3) If you specify SFX_*_00, the result will be the same as if
you specify “SFX_*”, and the following files will be
loaded.
SFX_A_00.WAV, SFX_A_01.WAV, SFX_B_00.WAV,
SFX_B_01.WAV, SFX_C_00.WAV
4) If you specify * and execute loading, all of the WAVE
files will be loaded as follows.
PIANO.WAV, SFX_A_00.WAV, SFX_A_01.WAV,
SFX_B_00.WAV, SFX_B_01.WAV, SFX_C_00.WAV
