Hi all,

First, no real progress has been made on the installation problem I have
been seeing.  CakeWalk seems to think everything is fine since I could get
the installation to proceed by pressing the cancel button a few times.  I
saw this with another program recently as well.

Okay, my question is where can I get instrument definitions for a Roland KR
4500 keyboard?   I've looked around the Roland site but can't find anything.
I know this is an old model.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Kim

Yes, the letter M is the time bookmark.
