Another Kurzweil Module - the K1000 AX Plus

Kurzweil 1000 AX Plus

The Kurzweil 1000 AX Plus is another Kurzweil sound module (related to, but different from the 1200 pro I) that offers mainly string and horn sounds. It's natural instrument sounds are very impressive and it can be upgraded to a Pro-II module with an expanded repertoire of mainly string and horn sounds. A discussion of upgrades can be found at:
http://k1000.net/

At my FTP site - http://users.rcn.com/lsireland - I have uploaded info and pictures illustrating an example of the ROM chip and motherboard structure inside a K1000 AX Plus as a pdf file:
K1000AXPlus_info.pdf
The file also lists the wavefiles provided by the K1000 AX Plus.

Also at the FTP are two banks (binhexed Mac Object Mover files) of my own sound programs (patches) for the K1000 AX Plus:

Roy’s AXPlus Bank1
Roy’s AXPlus Bank2

There are two accompanying pdf files of the same name at the FTP site which provide descriptions of the corresponding patches.
