what it is all about...
The "Must-Have" for every KN2600 and KN7000 owner*
Managing the songs on your SD Card, using the keyboard, is very time consuming.
While loading a song is relatively fast, compared with diskettes, the saving
takes much time. So moving or copying a song from one folder to another takes
too much time. And renaming a Song is also tedious and slow. Imagine the time
you spend on re-arranging an SD card in such a way. Therefore we have developed
a powerful, yet easy to use tool. Who doesn't know how Windows Explorer works?
Almost everybody knows. Our tool behaves exactly like Explorer, can be started
as application like Explorer, but is also integrated in Explorer. This means
that everybody is able to use our tool on the fly.

We expect you will have become so enthusiastic that you like to register for the modest fee. Just fill out the Registration data and then purchase the tool by pressing the "buy now" button.
Het bewerken van je songs op een SD card in het keyboard gaat zeer traag
en kost veel werk. Het laden van een song gaat in verhouding met diskettes een
stuk sneller, maar het opslaan daarentegen kost heel veel tijd. Het verplaatsen
of kopiëren van een song van de ene folder naar een andere is een tijdrovende
klus, waarbij je gemakkelijk fouten maakt. Ook het hernoemen van een song kost
veel tijd en moeite. Laat staan als je een SD kaartje wilt re-arrangeren. Daarom
hebben we een krachtige, maar eenvoudig te gebruiken tool.
Wie kent niet Windows Verkenner? Welnu, onze tool heeft hetzelfde gedrag. Het
is te starten zoals Wiindows Verkenner, maar is tevens geintregeerd met Verkenner
via het menu wat met klikken van rechtermuisknop wordt verkregen. Daarom kan
iedereen zo met onze tool aan de slag.
Bekijk de screenshots
of lees eerst de specificaties om
alvast een beter idee te krijgen van wat de tool biedt.
Vervolgens kunt u een demo versie van de tool downloaden en installeren. Deze demo versie biedt een korte tijd de volledige functionaliteit. Zodra de demotijd is verstreken wordt u verzocht te registreren.
We zijn een FAQ site gestart om eventuele veelgestelde vragen te kunnen beantwoorden. Deze FAQ lijst wordt uitgebried naarmate er meer vragen veelvuldig binnenkomen.
NB: De tool compatibel is met Windows 2000, Windows XP en alle versies van Vista.
We gaan ervan uit dat u dan zo enthousiast geraakt bent, dat u gaarne bereid bent de tool te registreren. Zend daarvoor hieronder uw registratiegegevens en betaal door de "Buy Now" te klikken. Zodra uw betaling binnen is krijgt u zo spoedig mogelijk, binnen een dag, uw licentie toegestuurd.
Send your KN-SDExplorer registration details and complete registration on the page that follows, by making the payment. We have set the price modestly to €39,95:
In case that you already registered but in the next step could not complete the registration via PayPal, I have created another button here. So then you can retry purchasing without re-registering. Maybe also some of your problems are gone then, as I hope!
(voor Nederlandse klanten hebben we een bankrekening waarop de betaling overgemaakt kan worden. Stuur even een email voor de gegevens)

As a proud beta-tester
of SDExplorer I'm pleased to see the publication of this nice program.
SDExplorer is a must for all Technics KN7000 owners who use the SD-Card
with the KN7000 and/or KN2600 keyboard. SDExplorer is just as easy to
use as Windows Explorer, with copy/paste files, drag files, sort files,
make new folders, delete folders, etc. Kenneth Gundersen, www.kn7000.net |

SDExplorer - a really superb piece
of software that is a pleasure to use. Working on my PC I had three sources
of data to copy/amalgamate - one folder on my PC and two separate SD cards
in different USB ports and moved/copied them around in Windows. Joan Banfield |

I have owned every sxKN from the 800 to our great sxKN7000. All the great sounds and features make this the greatest ever. The SC card also has helped me in my performance because I use it professionally. I have purchased more cards than Joans and have been frustrated over the problems of "file management. There are so many things we can't do with Windows Explorer. My pleasant surprise is that I have been able to (1) RENAME (2) MOVE & COPY (3) BACKUP/RESTORE (3) IMPORT/EXPORT (4) SORT and last, and not least generate the index and print it of my song list in a nice rtf layout. My SD cards are at last let me organized the way I need them and this program is the answer to my prayers. I have no problem recommending that all the proud owners of the greatest Synth in the world, get this program. Dewey Hodgkinson |
So why not register?
Windows PC with an SD-Card reader. This can be any model. The application can even be used without card reader, since backup and restore can also be done to the SD card in the KN keyboard and to the hard disk on the PC. However the performance of backup/restore to the SD card in the keyboard is very slow. And because simple card readers are very cheap (got mine for less than $10) a card reader is highly recommended. In the further information the use of a Card reader is even assumed.
As the name of the application already indicated, the KN-SD-Explorer tool behaves
very much like the Windows explorer. The difference is that in the KN-SD-Explorer
the songs are treated/managed as files and the folders as directories. The only
difference between a song in KN-SD-Explorer and a file in Windows Explorer is
that songs have a number. Therefore we have two ways of removing a song in a
folder: Erase (song position is cleared) and Delete (like file delete: song
and its song position are deleted). The application is interfaced/integrated
in Windows Explorer: Right mouse button click (RMC) on any directory of a Technics
tree (PRIVATE\TECHNICS\KN7000
) opens KN-SD-Explorer in the same way as
starting Explorer via RMC on the Windows Start button.
Also the option is given to backup the song tree to an SDB file. The same RMC
action on a backup (sdb-)file gives the possibility to restore that backup,
to SD Card, hard disk, USB stick, whatever. The backup- and restore functionality
is the same as in Technics Songmanager. However the Merge function is not present
in KN-SD-Explorer, because a much better functionality is in the tool: selective
merging.
Renaming Songs and Folders: just as simple as renaming a single file or directory. Renaming a Song in KN-SD-Explorer results in automatically renaming all files, which belong to the Song.
Moving and Copying Songs: again like Windows Explorer Songs can be moved
from one Folder to another using drag and drop technique, the CTRL-C/CTRL-V
shortcuts or the Copy, Move and Paste functions from the menu.
Multiple Songs can be selected and moved or copied. Adding songs to a full folder
(20 Songs) or directories to full card (99 Folders) is prohibited of course.
Backup/Restore: The same Backup/Restore functionality as in the Song
Manager software, that came with your keyboard. However, you don't need that
tool anymore, since all functionality is integrated in our tool.
Selective Merging!: The Song Manager tool has a Merge functionality to
combine two backups (sdb-files) to one. The Selective Merging of KN-SD-Explorer
is howevermuch more flexible and powerful.
Suppose you have some folders and songs on your SD Card and you want to add
certain folders/songs from an sdb file to your SD Card, just restore the sdb-file
on your hard disk, then open a KN-SD-Explorer instance for it (RMC on the PRIVATE,
TECHNICS or KN7000 directory), do the same for your SD card. Now you have two
KN-SD-Explorer windows; the title bar shows which song tree each KN-SD-Explorer
holds. Now you can move Folders and/or Songs from one SD-Explorer window to
the other. So you can move Songs from SD Card to Hard disk and vice versa.
Import/Export of Songs and Folders: You can also copy songs from Windows
Explorer into KN-SD-Explorer and vice versa. This is called importing and exporting.
This is very handy. For example a fast way to import songs from internet, like
the KESO site, is as follows:
On the KESO site each songs is compressed to a zip file. Open the file instead
of download. Now the contents of the zip-file is shown in the WinZip tool (or
any other like Winrar). Select the song file in the zipfile and drag them to
a folder in KN-SD-Explorer. The song is now presented in the tool like the other
songs and can be managed accordingly.To give you an idea of the power of the
tool: in approx. 15 minutes I can download and import 20 songs on the SD Card.
Compare with your conventional way: download and unzip the songs on one or more
diskettes and load and save them one by one in the keyboard. How much time does
that take you?
Sorting Songs and Folders alphabetically: Not much to say about this. Like in Windows Explorer you can sort songs in a folder and folder in the tree.
Generate SD Card index: From SD-Explorer you can export an index of your folder and song structure in either .txt or .rtf format.
Find songs: In the find dialog you enter part of a song name and some song data types. SD-Explore will find any songs that match on the SD Card.
