MO7 and Ketron SD3

[Martosax87]

Hello, after few days I will own Ketron SD3. I checked the drum section and I found differences (mistakes) between the names and their Program changes in SD3 manual and the drum list in the MO7. Some even does not exists in the drum list in MO7.

The official names and Program Changes from the user manual:

Name Program Change
Standard 1
Folk 9
Acoustic 10
Jazz Dry 11
Vintage 12
Rock 17
House 25
Techno 26
Progressive 28
Rave 29
Hip-Hop 30
Fusion 33
Brush 41
Orchestra 49
Studio 57
Light Pop 58
Rap 59
Custom 65
Latin 66
Pop Jazz 73
Jazz Brush 107
Urban 121
Electro 122
Country 123
R&B 124

I will be very happy if you fix it, because I'm gonna use this machine very soon.

Hello Martin,

the support for the Ketron SD3 started january 2008. Since then not a single complain was registered regarding the sounds or drums of the SD3. I know the Ketron representative in Germany and he send me all the lists, sounds and drums, for all supported Ketron instruments.

Maybe the currently available revision (firmware) has a different set of drums as the original.
Changing the drums now could eventually create problems to Optimizer users that still use previous firmware releases of the SD3.
I'll look closer into what can be done.

OK, Victor.
In Monday or Tuesday (next week) I will receive my brand new SD3 from Ketron Italy and I will inform you in details.

Thank you for fast reply.

Martin.

Hello, Victor. I promised to inform you about Ketron SD3 changes. I want to upload here the latest technical data for SD3, but I see forum message that PDFs are not allowed.

Hello Martin,

please send the PDF to my email (you find it in Help, Info about ...).

Victor

[Martosax87]

Done. I sent it to the e-mail which is written in Help in MO7.

Hello Martin,

you are right, there were some drumsets missing and some that are not in the PDF.
You can download the new version here:

Thank you very much, Victor! Now everything works. I hope that in the next versions of MO you will keep this variation.

Hello Martin,
