I have tried the following with no success (once did get up to patch 55 working): Not sure I can find where to change the transmission speed… do you mean ‘ms between buffers’? Try slowing down the transmission speed and raising the buffer amount.
Tried several times, and every time is a different amount of patches that are OK. I’m having the same problem as ‘Ted Wilder’ above… after sending the sysex file through MIDIox, the first few patches are ok, but eventually the patch names go all gobbledigook and the sounds are messed up. We usually have several midi interfaces in stock and do usually have several Korg Keyboards including the good old M1.Ĩ3 Responses to “Transferring Sounds Via Midi On The Korg M1” Check out the hardware section of our web site.

A simple midi interface will connect to your computers USB port and enable you to load and save sounds to your computers hard drive. The cards are also expensive and do not hold much memory (usually only one bank of sounds can fit on a typical RAM card).Īs described in our “Sysex Made Simple article”, there are better ways to do things. You can change the battery on “some” cards, but even if you do any sounds that were on the card are gone. That makes the card useless in most cases. Even if you do happen to find one, there is a good chance that the internal battery on the card is dead. The ROM, RAM and PCM cards that fit into the M1 card slots have not been made in many years and are hard to find.
