Technical Support / Re: Configuration of a Korg DS...

Last post by Indy33 - January 24, 2026, 09:21:49 PM

The reinstall did not help.

I have not been able to update any win10 machines for a long time. Yesterday I figured out the problem, so now all my computers are updated. Wish I would have tried the Korg before MS updates.The first computer did not have updates, but the second one did.

I wonder could that be the problem, but im sure yours was up to date .....uhm.

Have you any experience with the Korg MR-1000 or MR-2000???

I really couldn't say, but that sounds like a sensible course of action.

That didn't work for me.

Thinking that I will just do a reinstall of Windows 10 and see what happens. The original computer was on Win10 and I moved it to another Win10 computer ..... should work don't you think?

Update:

I uninstalled the Korg driver installed on my machine and reinstalled it from here:

https://www.korg.com/us/support/download/software/0/529/2583/

Then it started working.  You can tell because you can hear a relay switching over inside the Korg when you click on the radio buttons (and the setting 'sticks').

Tested on Windows 11 25H2.

I'm not sure anymore to be honest, but the reason that box exists is that iTunes on older iPhones misbehaves if you check it.  We'll review it when time permits.

In the meantime, you might like to explore the Custom Tags editor - you can probably set it that way.

Hi,

It's still supported, but VinylStudio only puts it in if you check the 'Include grouping tag' box in the Settings dialog, not sure why.

Is that why there was always both LICATION and GROUPING with the same value?
I am using Lyrion and a recent change means that GROUPING is now used in a specific way so I cleared all my GROUPING tags and switched off "Incluge grouping tag" for future needledrops. I didn't expect LOCATION to disappear as well!?

Hello again,

I looked into this and our code that used to work no longer does.  We haven't changed anything so it looks like either (a) Korg have changed their driver, or (perhaps more likely) (b) it no longer works properly under Windows 11.

I will get in touch with them to see if they're prepared to help out.  If so, we will fix VinylStudio and issue an update.

I have used VS since 2014 and for more years than I can tell tracks written to FLAC have carried a LOCATION tag which was the VS Library name. It's very useful but since the last update it appears to be gone. Can I get it back?

> Tried phono, won't stick

OK, I'll look into that.  It's a long time since I last tested it.
