Introducing PC2 MANAGER, which allows you to edit the sound of PC2X in a little more detail.
These files are included as attachments. There are two versions, version 1.0 and last version. The big difference between the version 1.0 and 1.0 is that only the internal voice is included.
Program configuration - File menu
A menu that allows you to export or receive and save or load files.
Program Configuration - File - Load Programs menu
It is a function that can blow up the corresponding program patch file with the extension of pc2.
Program configuration - File -Import menu
K26, K25, and Krz files can be partially converted, although they are limited.
(Only when the analog synthesized voice or the sample name in K2X00 is the same as the sample in PC2)
Program configuration - Edit menu
Patches can be copied, cut and modified, and MIDI interface settings for connecting programs and pc2 can be configured in Preferences.

The above screen configuration is the screen of PC2's Internal Voice 001 Stereo Grand.
No.1 on the screen is where you can see and select the layer of the voice
The second part of the screen is where you can select the key. (Only the built-in ROM key of pc2 can be selected.)
Screen 3 of the screen is the algorithm check and selection menu of the layer.
You can see the keystrokes and the algorithm changes when you change layer 1 directly on the screen.
(If you are using pc2x's gm patch, it's fun to guess or check out the gm patches created by some of the internal sound sources.)
The smallest unit of sound used by all Kurzweil synthesizers, including the PC2 series, is a sample. In the K2X00 series with built-in sampler, you can load other samples or create samples at all, but for PC2X, you can use only sample of built-in ROM.
Samples are assigned according to the velocity of each key, and the multiple samples thus made constitute one key. In addition, these keys can be changed by various algorithms. The sounds of these changed states are called layers.
Please refer to the following figure for more detailed explanation ^^
If you are not familiar with synth sizing, but you can get a rough understanding of the below picture and its interface while referring to the k2600 manual or the program section of the pc3 manual, it will not be too difficult to use. It can be applied through comparison between each patch .. ^^

With PC2 Manager program, PC2X is too limited to compare with K2600 or PC3X (sharing algorithm freely in 32 layers, etc ...) but it is possible to edit 4 layers and 4 VAST algorithms (Syncsizing) in PC2 with this program.
PC2 Manager program without pc2x itself is quite inconvenient timbre envelope LFO editing settings are possible. Anyway, the PC2 Manager can be easily edited further that impressive part.
A little bit of a drawback is that real-time editing is not provided when using PC2 Manager.
(You can check the results only after you have saved the data.)
I also know that K-series programs are compatible only with non-ROM-based (KFM), but I could not find foreign users who used them, and I have never shared such contents in user forums or clubs in Korea. There was no way to find out more about it. (It is a little bit of a lack of active music community,
For reference, several users and engineer groups requested the original author to share the source, but with the indifference of the producer Frank Detlef Speck, the last version of October 2005 was finished and no further updates were made.
