Hello Ng,<br><br>If I'm not mistaken, Most keyboards with internal sounds take their sounds from a ROM chip, with only a few megabytes of storage space in them for samples (admittedly the 'Big 3' workstations have got anywhere from 300MB to 1GB of sample ROM onboard these days last time I checked). Additionally, they're not in Soundfont format either, but rather a proprietary format that can only be read by the keyboard's embedded OS. If you really needed those sounds on your computer, I guess you could sample/loop them yourself, but that'd probably be quite time consuming! On the other hand, you 'could' just plug in a midi cable into the keyboard and just sequence like that!<br>

Hi all,<br>
<br>
This is probably a dumb question, but is there a way to extract sound<br>
fonts from (for example) a Korg keyboard? I like the sheer range of<br>
sounds my Korg has, but would like to record in MIDI rather than as<br>
audio for ease of editing. Once its in MIDI it would be convenient to<br>
have the Korg's sound fonts available on my machine so I wouldn't need<br>
the Korg around to playback.<br>
<br>
I'm guessing it probably can't be done, but figure it can't hurt to ask.<br>
<br>
Thanks.<br>
<br>
