Thanks for the reply
My other keyboard is a Juno-G which I still love (dead easy to programme, and I have thousands of patches I want to keep) but has the interestign feature of turning off the midi ports if talking midi through the USB. So it will have to be at the end of the chain somehow - either by using 2 USBs (my Dell is packed with them) or via the Kronos Thru port.
I dont think it'll be too much of a hassle but just wondered if K would switch off the midi interface if using USB. |

Nice channel strip. I was just noticing that it has all of the available outs but there are no AES or S/PDIF ins?
I don't think you can feed signal back into the Kronos with it? |
The Kronos has optical S/PDIF in and out. Hopefully, it will be like the OASYS and allow you to clock from an external clock.

Got a link? |
Vocoder
More Vocoding |
Ok, I lol'd. The guy doing the presentation cracked me up. He had a slightly confused look a lot of the time that made it for me. I would watch any of his videos. Some people just have a knack for bringing their personality into their presentations.
I loved the sound of the vocoder on that second video especially.
I have a question with mics. I have a sm7b which requires a big preamp. Should I run it through my own preamp and into the instrument in on the kronos or do you think the kronos preamp would handle it? Should I even use this mike or maybe pick up a cheapie one for vocoding? |

There is no real need to use an expensive mic for vocoding. I use one of those "round the neck" style mics, the type that aerobics instructors tend to use. Mine was fairly cheap from eBay and it works like a dream.
