Installation and updates
modwave native uses the Korg Software Pass application for installation and updates. Optionally, modwave native can
check for updates automatically; see “Check for Updates” on page 18.
Your software license is registered to your Korg ID. You can download the Korg Software Pass application and manage
your Korg ID at
Where are sounds stored?
The sound database and factory Multisamples are stored in a dedicated folder structure. This can be created anywhere
during the installation process, but as defaults we recommend:
• macOS: /Users/Shared/KORG/modwave native/System
• Windows: \Users\Public\Public Documents\KORG\/modwave native/\System
User Multisamples can be stored anywhere.
