Hi, I've been seriously considering the new Kurzweil K2661 as a main keyboard for my fledgeling set up. Its abundant controller options would make it perfect for me, as my left hand is knackered after a stroke, and they're supposed to sound rather marvellous too, with all the K2600 optional extras including the orchestral set included as standard. However I'm concerned that the new 'smart media' means of transferring downloaded OS updates and sound library, or transferring the on board sequencer data to computer sequencer require *DOS compatibilty*. Does this mean one cant perform these tasks on a mac? If so then its a real shame as it looks like one hell of an instrument in every other respect.
John.

Cheers Dixiechicken, I have a USB smartmedia card reader for my digital camera which has a 128 Mb card, I wonder if that could be used for shunting Kurzweil data back and forth?. I've no idea how to format it with DOS though.
The scuzzi connector on previous kurzweil kseries synths has apparently disappeared from the K2661 in favour of the smartmedia slot.
"The mac reads dos diska jus handy" I think you lapsed into Swedish here smile.gif
Did you mean macs read dos disks just dandy ?
Thanks for the info, regards, John.
