Okay. Meanwhile it has got an OS upgrade (3.87), additional P-RAM, a REALLY FAT external SCSI CD-ROM drive (4 pounds of drive and a cooling fan, anyone?) and it has got the daughterboard plus Orchestral ROM. And now I wish for a board/a ROM that WORKS! (Shoulda known that it was a bad idea to buy it from a flea market in an opened box for that cheap...). And I wish for more sample RAM. By the way, does anyone know if the String Boxes CD from Sonic Implants is any good?

Maybe you could join and see if you can figure out if this was really a program from the Kurzweil.
I read somewhere that as standard the K-2000 is full of orchestral sound. JMJ used the Kurzweil for Oxygene 10 during the Oxygene tour but also for that Oxygene 2 intro in Athen.
Vinceblood posted a sample of the lead sound on Jarre.net,it was a brass type patch with a low filter cutoff as it was more of a string timbre......if i remember rightly i think he said it was off the Roland JV expansion cards Can't recall exactly,all i know is he posted an audio of it
or maybe it was off the K2000...seeing as Jarre played it from the K2000 perhaps it was a patch from that,but during the Oxy tour jarre only played the first melody pass,then played the Theremin,so who played the second melody run!!!Francis???he certainly had a Roland synth within his viccinity...
Anyone else clarify where this Patch is off!!!Vince!!!

Hm, I don't recall the sounds that exactly now. And the K2000's standard sound palette isn't that big (there are some really great sounds in it, though, I love that dual bass for instance). But if there was an O10-style sound on it, I would remember it.
