Kurzweil PC3 Sound Editing Software

New version 2.0.2.1  April 29, 2011.

The PC3 SoundEditor software is available free of any charges for all Kurzweil PC3 and PC3K keyboard users.

The PC3 SoundEditor is a full-featured Editor/Librarian and Sound Development tool for the Kurzweil PC3 series keyboard. While the PC3/PC3X is fully editable from its front panel controls, SoundEditor greatly expands the editing experience by displaying every PC3 parameter in a series of logical, easy-to-use graphical interfaces. SoundEditor allows you to create, edit, organize, and store PC3 Programs, Setups, Songs and Effects. Through a standard MIDI connection (DIN or USB), SoundEditor can receive and transmit individual Programs, Setups or Effects, or entire banks to the PC3. All Program, Setup Effect and DSP parameters can be displayed and edited. Programs can be assigned to any of 20 Categories to assist in organizing, sorting and creating custom program banks. SoundEditor can also be used as a teaching tool to learn the inner details of the factory Programs. We hope you enjoy using SoundEditor for your Kurzweil PC3!
