Make a blank combi with all the settings you prefer and use that as a starting point for future combos.

I have a basic combi for two keyboards. Piano/strings on the lower and organ/ pad on the upper. I have spent time making all the background settings I typically use set properly. Any new combi I need I load this basic version and build it off there.

thanks, but not sure why plugging the pedal into output 2 would cause it to function as a volume pedal for organ sounds???

I use the Korg EXP-2 with my Kronos.

Not terribly expensive ($85 @ Sweetwater), works great for organ expression, and seems durable (been using it for a little over a year). Comes with the appropriate (TRS) cable.

Just plug the cable into the jack labeled "Output 2".


The pedal itself has an Output 1 and Output 2. Blurb from the Korg website:

A foot controller that can be used as a lightweight and compact volume/expression pedal.
・Use as a volume pedal (when using INPUT-1 and OUTPUT-1) or as an expression pedal (when using OUTPUT-2).
・Minimum volume can be set in a range from 0 to approximately 50%.

"Instead of setting to CC#11 I set it to CC#7, and I'm able to fade up the Organ from under the Piano layer."

That will work for certain applications, but if you want to build a string section with several different timbres, but want the cellos, violas, and violins balanced at different volumes, CC#11 allows you to fade them all in and out simultaneously, while maintaining the balance. CC#7 won't allow that.

"Maybe there's a way to have a completely BLANK Initialised Combi Template for future programming. I hope so, as I prefer to start from Nothing and only apply whatever particular Controllers, Filters etc that I choose to use."

Good idea. Just build a blank combi (or perhaps piano on timbre #1) and set everything to off as you prefer. Then save it to a user bank as "My Blank Combi" Then, edit it anyway you like and save your edit to a new location, with a new name. Rinse and repeat ad nauseum.

Don't forget, you can also use the sliders as faders too.
