Software Upgrades
Part of the beauty of the K2661 is the ease with which you can upgrade its operating system and
objects (programs, setup, etc.) using the boot loader to install upgrades into flash ROM.
At Kurzweil and Young Chang, we have a long history of support for our instruments; the K250,
K1000, K2000, and K2500 have been repeatedly enhanced, and these improvements have always
been made available to instrument owners in the form of software upgrades.
Upgrading your K2661’s software is simple, painless, and—generally—free! As upgraded
software becomes available, you can either get files from your Young Chang dealer or download
the new stuff from the Web.

When you’ve acquired an upgrade, you can install it yourself in a matter of minutes. See
Appendix A for details.
