Ah, yes, chain link. There's something so satisfying when you can hold down the sustain pedal and do a real harp or piano gliss up or down the keyboard and not have any note stealing going on. That feature is why I have thirteen of these instruments.

Hi David,
Interesting. Thanks. Yes, the MIDI is direct from the Korg D1 to the K1000. I also have a new K2700 which I haven't tried MIDI'ing to the K1000's yet; maybe it's just the Korg.
And I should say what I'm hearing is subtle, so maybe it's just me. :-)
I was very interested to see that the K1000's have the huge polyphony capability where each K1000 can be 1 of 12, 2 of 12 etc. in a chain.. and since Kurzweil facilitated this use case, I guess the MIDI latency can't be too bad.
Cheers,
Michael

Hi Michael,
this is a new one to me. I've never experienced latency with any of my Kurzweils, and I run them from a Yamaha DX5.
Are you connected your Korg directly to your K1000 or going through a computer? I'm still running mine through an Atari STE and Notator (last crash: 1996!) and there are no timing problems.
Mind you, a friend who set up a studio with a brand new Toshiba laptop found that the MIDI latency was awful and with VSTs basically unusable. When he rang Toshiba to enquire, they said 'yes, we know about that'!
