My >"0"< + >ENTER< has always been to default to the best piano I've got on the board, I suspect that when I get a Kronos that will still hold true, even in set list mode - top left button will be piano on all set lists.

---------------

If we're done shooting spitballs at one another, one thing that always bugged me about Kurz, and Roland and Yamaha for that matter, was the fact that higher numbers were scroll down, I want to twist to right to get higher numbers like a volume knob (yay Korg!). Any way to adjust that feature, or is it a case of "use it enough and it will seem natural"?

I'm mearly trying to point out some nice features of kurzweil that i've been using for 25 years, thats all, it's not a competition, i plan on having a kronos, and a kurzweil, both boards are great IMHO, again, i'm talking live playing, not studio where it doesn't matter, trying to avoid extra steps between songs, one right into the next, on the beat, turning down the volume requires an extra step, where i can hit channel down once to midi channel 16, where program "0" is, and controll my other board, not that complicated, I don't have to program anything, kurzweil already did it for me.

If you're playing live I assume you would be using Set List rather than digging through a bunch of programs/combis. In Set List mode you would just create a Silent program and touch it when needed from the touch screen.

nope, no set list, the band leader calls whatever he feels like playing at that moment, so the set is very fluid, I like korg and kurzweil keyboards,i'm more talking live applications little things that help in a musically fluid situation, korg already added the hold feature to kronos, witch is a great feature to have live, and on a screen so large maybe they can add an octave +/-, a transpose +/-, midi channel +/- to the main screen as a hadrwired feature to my future kronos 61 thats all.

I always create a combi in the first slot in which all of the timbres are switched to 'off'. MIDI is still transmitted on the global channel.
Additionally I've got another combi which has only an EXT timbre set to channel 11, for playing just my Radias.

Korg's combis are actually pretty good for setting up external control situations. You can incorporate KARMA and other neat tricks too. One thing I use a bit for example is assigning a knob to control the Damper CC so that I can hold notes indefinitely.

Just overwrite your 00 program to use empty ram multisample. That isit to get 0 program by deafault on everything, if that is what you need. Don't forget Korg workstations let you customize all programs, even the preloaded ones. I have overwritten the default piano sound with harmonium sampled sound, so I et harmonium on all new tracks automatically.

Not sure if this has already been asked elsewhere, but can a Combi transmit program changes to external equipment?

EvilDragon · Posted: Wed Apr 27, 2011 2:34 pm Post subject:

Yes, for a couple of decades already.

Yes, of course it can do that - OASYS could.
