|
|
Does anyone know if it's possible to both select a SONG and start it from an external midi device? So basically the Kronos would be acting as a slave device.
If so what would I need to do re settings etc?
Thanks. _________________ Korg Oasys 76, Korg Kronos 2 61, Korg Wavestation EX, Roland Jupiter X, 2 x Roland A800 Pro, Yamaha SY77, MacBook Pro Retina 15-inch Core i7 2.7GHz 16GB / 768GB, MainStage 3, Cymatic uTrack24, Samson S Patch, U-PHORIA UMC404HD Audio interface, Yamaha MG16XU mixer |

Set List might be an option. I think you can use Program Change messages to select a Set List Slot. Check the PG for details on Set List Mode. I use my Kronos as the Master Controller. It is vary powerful and flexible. No other controller/workstation can rival it. _________________ "To me the synthesizer was always a source of new sounds that musicians could use to expand the range of possibilities for making music."

|
|
I have a similar question.
I'd like to use my KORG Digital Recorder (D32XD) to play the accompaniment instruments while I play the keyboard. To clarify: I would like to Start / Stop the D32XD Digital Recorder from the Kronos (not the other way around). I really think this is do-able, but haven't figured it out yet.
I was thinking about this and think I should be able to use a MIDI Command to simply Locate and Start / Stop the recorder. This would allow me to mute selected tracks and play the instruments I want from the recorder, while playing keys on the keyboard.
I worked on this yesterday for a bit, but was unsuccessful. I did see all of my track faders move, so the two KORGs are talking to each other. I just dont think I've found the right language yet. It may be in the CC#'s but I'm not sure.
Does anyone know if I can send commands from a Korg Kronos to the Korg D32XD to Start / Stop / Locate? _________________ Dave Kalbach

Hi there,
Hopefully the following is helpful:
See:
https://www.midi.org/specifications-old/item/table-1-summary-of-midi-message
Look for the following standard MIDI system messages:
- Song Select [0xF3 <SongNr>]
- Song Position Pointer (for Locate) [0xF2 <Lsb> <Msb>]
- Start [0xFA]
- Continue [0xFB]
- Stop [0xFC]
These are System messages (not CC, not Sysex) that are generally used to start/stop/select songs in a sequencer.
@Geoff Flynn: I believe the Kronos reacts properly to these messages. You still have to figure out how to send these messages from the external MIDI device. I'm not sure which device you are currently using, but if you can e.g. freely program certain buttons to fire MIDI events then the above messages should do the trick.
@davekalbach: I'm not sure if the D32XD reacts to these messages. Furthermore I'm not sure if the Kronos can trigger these messages externally.
Hopefully the above pointers do help you in the right direction.
Kind regards,
