About HAMMOND Sk1 questions

[Finnhammond]

Hi! I'm a new HAMMOND Sk1 owner. I loaded on Music Player a bunch of MP3 songs, most of them hears awfull. WAV ones sounds great, but they need a lot more of memory capacity instead. Has anyone know, anything about update for Music Player. Is it possible to add exp.pedal volume settings individually for USER sounds. I've on FAVORITE banks ten different sounds. Some of them sounds loud and some ones quiet. Regards Pertti

I'll try to help as much as I can.

Make sure your mp3s are 128kbps a no more, no less. For some reason the player prefers that bitrate and doesn't like others.

Is it possible to add exp.pedal volume settings individually for USER sounds.

It is possible to preset where the sounds start in terms of their volume but as soon as you move the expression pedal, they will change. Thankfully Hammond added an overall volume parameter for the organ voices in a later update. Make sure you have the latest OS.
