Some more photos, screensets, and sound demos from a German review:

Meanwhile Korg&More has put up a nice German Online presence for the Kronos as well.

He basically just loves everything about it...

It's readable with google translate, allthough I had to sopy the sections rather than translating the whole page, it just kept going back to german when I did.

You can always get a rough idea with a Google Translation:

Thank you, I also posted in this collective thread:
http://www.korgforums.com/forum/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?p=378648#378648

There are many streaming sound demos in the article. Do you know their bitrate/quality?

I downloaded one of the flashs and converted it back to the original format:

Seems it's been mp3s with 192 kbps.

Thanks for your collection!

I like using Google Chrome. When you open the page the browser will automatically ask if you want it translated. Even does a pretty good job with German syntax. Wink

Thank you for the info. It's good to know that the streaming demos are in 44,100 kHz, stereo, 192 Kbps mp3 format. (I heard a little difference compared to the sound of my OASYS demos that are 320K mp3s.)

Good news: it means Kronos will sound even better in reality than in these demos.
