Hi Guys
I may be asking a bit too much here but have the following question:-
I have a Roland HS5 (like the Jam Hub) which will output (USB) multiple audio tracks for DAW multi audio track recording.
Can I do this on the Kronos rather than the DAW?
(Sorry, I'm a bit new to this)
Thanks

Unfortunately, no, not directly. The Kronos can’t act as a host for USB audio devices. _________________ Current Equipment:

Thats good to hear.
Go to the drum track tab for volume control. There is a pick list for different patterns _________________ Kronos 88. MODX8

Thank you Please can i Lean on you for help now and then I am not use where to begin , I, nervous I am not really good with this stuff
Kronos is nothing like your Kurz or Fantom. Almost everyone has to immerse themselves in the manual, videos, for months.
I would not quickly try to integrate Kronos with your other boards. Learn Kronos standalone.
You might consider looking for a local Kronos teacher . Hands on with a teacher is the best way to learn something as complex as Kronos. _________________ Kronos 88. MODX8

On the left side of the keyboard, press the TIMBRE/TRACK button. That puts the physical interface in Mixer mode. In Program mode,
Slider 1 = OSC 1 volume
Slider 2 = OSC 2 volume
Slider 3= Drum Track volume.
All these modes (KARMA, EXT, TONE ADJUST, etc.) can make it hard to keep track of what the buttons and sliders do. On the touch screen, press the CONTROL SURFACE tab. Now the screen will show you what all the sliders and buttons are assigned to in any mode.

It was a keyboard I just had to have
its an option, and consider if you have a budget for a teacher. Hopefully, a nearby Kronos owner would not charge much.
I don't know your town/area. maybe a local music store has ideas on how to reach out. _________________ Kronos 88. MODX8

As I often say, the Kronos must be considered as a complete musical studio. As soon as you turn the power on, imagine you open a studio door. The consequence is that it is impossible to master all the units at once !
As it has been said before the Kronos is huge time consuming. It has to be known.
If you don't find a teacher :
As you said before, there are plenty of excellent Youtube tutorials. But if you don't follow a learning method, you will quickly feel overwhelmed by all these informations.
But My opinon, and my advice, is to take a breath, don't try to create a song immediatly and instead take the Operation Guide from the first page to the last one, gently, step by step. It is really well made.
Anyway, it will take lots of months to feel at ease.
But the good news is that you will accumulate knowledge and practive and, finally, satisfaction.
After having red the whole Operation Guide, many technical and practical question will arise in your mind : the Parameters Guide, video tutorials, this forum, of course, are made for that. Because you will look for precise answer you will find precise informations.
If you follow a progressive learning, you won't get into discouragement !
The drum track volumes can be too loud at times, and seem to be geared to match instrument volume when playing the keys quite enthusiastically. Once the right volume mix is found, it's worth saving the Program, using the Write option from the drop down menu at top right of screen.
