About KORG format files
KORG format file structure
There are three types of sample-related Korg-format
files: .KMP files for multisamples, .KSF files for
samples, and .KSC files which handle the first two as a
collection. Similar to the AIFF format, .KMP/.KSF files
consist of chunks.
Unless stated otherwise, all data is Big Endian.
• When a Korg format file saved on the OASYS is
loaded by the TRINITY,
• Of the parameters for each song, the following
parameters are ignored. (The chunk that includes
the parameter is given in parentheses)
• Of the parameters for each sample, reverse
playback and loop off settings (included in the
attribute parameters of the SMD1 chunk) will be
ignored, and will be handled respectively as
forward playback and loop on. Only the twelve
types of sampling frequency supported by the
Trinity will be loaded correctly, and if the
frequency is unsupported, the next lowest
frequency will be selected.
• Split sample files cannot be loaded.
• When a Korg format file saved on the TRINITY is
loaded into the OASYS,
• Compressed sample files cannot be loaded.
• Multisamples that use internal samples of the
Trinity will be assigned identically-numbered RAM
samples.
• When loading a Korg-format file saved on the
OASYS into a Triton
• Of the parameters for each song, the following
parameters are ignored (the chunk that includes the
parameter is given in parentheses)
• Only the approximately 80 types of sampling
frequencies supported by the Triton will be loaded;
if the sampling frequency is not supported, the
next-lowest frequency will be selected.
KMP (KORG Multisample Parameter) files
These consist of the following chunks.
• Multisample parameter chunk
• Attributes
• Multisample name chunk
• Relative parameter chunk 1
