|

Is this possible? I seem to recall somewhere someone saying (in a video?) that you can import Omnisphere into the Kronos. Is this true? Can you also import Ivory II? I bought these years ago and love them! But I would love to play them on the beautiful Kronos 88-key fingerboard (or whatever you piano people call it). I used to just use an M-Audio Keystation 88 which was uninspiring.
It would make my day if this were possible. NOT that the Kronos' acoustic piano sounds are at all lacking, but it's never a bad thing to have more great piano samples, eh?
I'm not asking for explicit instructions on how to do it (though I wouldn't hate you for providing them or a link) but just if it's possible. I imagine I'd need to plug my iLok into the Kronos, to, right?
Thanks fellas & ladies! |

Omnisphere can't be imported, as such, The Kronos is not VST host capable, certainly not with the present OS. However, the Kronos can be used as a MIDI controller for Omnisphere and Ivory II, and the audio from the computer running those can be routed to the Kronos' audio ins, and mixed with Kronos' audio, and even sent through Kronos' effects. Now you will have to RTFM and RTFPG (Parameter Guide).

Bummer. I thought I explicitly heard someone say it (or its samples) could be imported. Oh well. I mean, I guess since the board is already set up with my Mac it's not an issue; was just hoping it would work inside the Kronos as a standalone. Thanks for the reply! |

Yes, Omnisphere, and any other audio samples can be imported, and Kronos' sampling capability is extremely good. It takes a bit of getting used to but it's not too difficult. |

No, I hadn't seen that one. It was some dude who casually mentioned you could import Omnisphere; made it sound like it was just drag and drop. Oh well, not a biggie. I'm sure the Kronos has more than enough weird sounds to keep me busy for a while |
