Diferenta intre doua versiuni de KST

[valimaties]

Salut.

Sa presupunem ca lucrez la un set de Korg PA5X, il termin, il salvez ca atare, sa zicem cu numele de 2025.10.15.KST .

Pana in luna curenta (ianuarie 2026) mai adaug ceva in acest set, cateva tonuri, cateva style-uri, cateva keyboard set-uri. Il export si pe asta cu denumirea 2026.01.10.KST

Ar fi utila o functie de incarcare si afisare in paralel a celor doua KST-uri, exact ca la functia de copiere dintr-un set in altul, dar de data asta functia va trebui sa genereze un KST cu diferenta dintre cele doua KST-uri... Adica sa exporte doar Style-urile, sound-urile si keyboard-set-urile noi dintre cele doua versiuni.

Hello,

Let’s assume I’m working on a Korg PA5X set. I finish it, save it as is, let’s say under the name 2025.10.15.KST.

Up until the current month (January 2026), I add some more content to the set—several sounds, several styles, and several keyboard sets. I then export this updated set under the name 2026.01.10.KST.

It would be useful to have a function that loads and displays both KST files side-by-side, similar to the existing “copy from one set to another” function, but in this case the function should generate a KST containing only the differences between the two sets—meaning it would export only the new styles, sounds, and keyboard sets found between the two versions.

Hello,

Thank you for the suggestion and explanation.

At this stage, I'm not sure this is a highly demanded feature. Korg PA Manager already provides Reports that can be compared between sets, and it’s also possible to open two PA Manager windows side-by-side to compare different KST files or copy elements between them as needed.

While the idea of exporting only the differences is interesting, it would add considerable complexity for a relatively niche use case.
That said, we do appreciate the feedback and will keep it in mind for future consideration.

This is more for those who build sets for selling. And, for example, I, as a client, currently have no access to new data from a new set, because the seller said it is hard for him to export only the new things in the set. That is why, if he knows he sold me some xyz.KST and he build the new xyz2.KST two months later, he could just use KPM to export the difference between xyz2.KST and xyz.KST.

When a software can offers you such a function, then definitely will be a feature which third party set makers will love. It will make their work easier.

Cheers,
Vali
