Hi Geoffd, Just checked Ebay Germany, there is a display assembly for a KN5000 up for sale, don't know if they will do international shipment but worth contacting the seller.
Item No :- 272857015966
The price is 199 Euros
All the best John.

I purchased a KN5000 last year.
The LCD was defective (very dark)
I designed a adapter to connect the keyboard to a new type display.
The new one is 5.7" versus the old one that was 6"
The display looks and works great.

Well, that's the thing, the Hammond documentation isn't very clear about it. It's compatible with KN5000 styles and I was able to load styles from this site into the hammond.
So I expected that a KN5000 style bank would be loadable into the hammond, bu…

Hi Sutur,
KN5000 can save single styles as far as I know. What type of KN5000 files will the Hammond Load?
Cheers,
Mike

Hi Mike,
Thanks for your reply. I got myself a KN5000, and indeed it's capable of editing styles and saving them to floppy. But the method is a bit awkwark. As far as I know, the KN5000 cannot save individual styles directly, it can only save the custo…

Hi Sutur,
Yes you can do that. The KN5000 has advanced style editing and creation capabilities and the styles can be saved to floppy disk.
In addition of course you would be able to hook it up to your Hammond so that it plays through your Hammond sp…

Hi,
I'm new to Technics. I recently got myself a Hammond XE-1 'organ' which has the capability to load Technics KN5000 styles. Since the Hammond doesn't offer the possibility to make styles on it (only plain rhythms), I'm thinking of purchasing a KN500…

Hi Ivan and Welcome!

I'm not the most experienced Sound editor.

I have figured it out I think.
First I held down the load custom and selected the style to load.
Secondly I copied the style from the memory to one of the custom style banks.

I've received your query by email but I'm answering you in the forum.
Composers Load into your Memory bank, not the Custom bank.
You can then transfer Styles from Memory to Custom if you want.

On most Technics Keyboards you place the files on a floppy and then you press and hold the Disk button. You'll then get a menu to choose which Style to load. Holds true for all the Technics keyboards I know of.

Have a look at pages 23 and 24 in the KN5000 manual.
Procedure for loading files from my websites is the same. There aren't any KN5000 Custom files on here as yet either (need some volunteers to make some as I don't have a KN5000 )

Are you putting all the files from an archive onto a floppy? And do you see some CMP files on it? CMP are the Composer files that contain the actual file patterns.

I know the site well.
Provided you've selected an archive that is compatible with your keyboard and extracted the files from the archive correctly they should load fine on your keyboard.
