QUESTIONS ON COMPATABILITY
What Kurzweil synths work
with Sonic Implants?
All Kurzweil samplers will work great with Sonic Implants. It’s
always best to have the latest operating software installed for the
best results but even older K2000s shouldn’t have a problem. (See
next item on latest operating systems) Here’s a list of the Kurzweil
Models that work with Sonic Implants.

Can Kurzweil
CDs be used by any other synths?
We are not aware of any other samplers that can read Kurzweil
sampling CDs.
What other format can be read by Kurzweil synth?
Kurzweil samplers can read Akai disks. However, it’s not a complete
conversion. Typically only the samples and keymap information is
translated. For best results purchase a native Kurzweil CD-ROM or
Download. Do Sonic Implants
utilize KDFX?
The B3 CD-ROM has programming for both KDFX and Non-KDFX units. All
other titles do not have KDFX programming. Sonic Implants Kurzweil
products will work fine with units having KDFX installed. What Kurzweil
operating system do I need to have to use Sonic Implants?
All K2500 and K2600 operating systems should work fine with Sonic
Implants, HOWEVER, we strongly recommend getting the latest
operating system for the best results. K2000 series owners will need
to have V3.16 or higher. Here’s a list of Kurzweil Samplers and
their latest software revisions.

For Hardware Upgrades,
you’ll need to call your local music store and have them install it.
It’s worth it! For Software Upgrades you can download the latest
