Transfering KC patches to TI

[maelstrom808]

After years of faithful service, it's time to retire my KC to upgrade to the TI. Before I do this though, I have several patches I've created on the KC that I really need to hang onto for the current projects I'm working on. I'm trying to find out the following:

1) Is it even possible for the TI to be backwards compatible with patches from the previous series?

2) If so, what would be the easiest way to do so? (currently running Cubase 4 on my PC if that helps)

3) How close to original do you think the patches would sound on the TI?

Thank you in advance for any help on this.
