Disk mode information About KORG format files

If the .KSF filename is “SKIPPEDSAMPL”, it will be
treated as a sample skipped during loading.
If the .KSF filename is “INTERNALnnnn”, internal
samples will be used.

KSF (KORG Sample File) files
There are four types of structure for these files. One
consists of a Sample Parameter chunk, Sample Data
chunk, Sample Number chunk and Sample name
(SMP1 + SMD1 + SNO1 + NAME). Another consists of
a Sample Parameter chunk, Sample Data chunk,
Sample Filename chunk, Sample Number chunk, and
Sample name chunk (SMP1 + SMD1 + SMF1 + SNO1 +
NAME). The latter structure is in the case where the
sample data of the Sample chunk is empty, and uses
the sample data of the .KSF file specified by the Sample
Filename chunk (shared sample data).
When saving to a floppy disk and a single disk cannot
accommodate all of the data, it is possible to
automatically divide the file and continue the save
operation.
When a .KSF file is created in this way, the first file will
consist of the Sample Parameter chunk, Sample
Number chunk, and Sample name a divided Sample
Parameter chunk, and a divided Sample Data chunk
(SMP1 + SNO1 + NAME + SPD1 + SDD1), and the
second and subsequent files will consist of a divided
Sample Data chunk (SDD1).
