After moving patches around (no minor chore on my Kronos 2, 73) I installed the ten disco string patches into their required bank and slots one by one instead of as a group of patches. This allowed my Narfsounds, Audora, and personally created patches to all coexist. Whew!
Once installed, the patches sounded fairly authentic to other disco strings I heard on recording (particularly string falls, which was truly what I was after). So far a good product.
