Marcan, with this set of mods you're working on, would it be possible somehow to hook up an external (touchscreen) display ? 8) It's not so much about what's possible but about what's reasonable/sensible/worth it. I'm not particularly planning on any specific set of mods/features; first I want to ...

If they get this thing to dual boot to windows - I'd do this and use the Kronos as my Windows development environment! hahaha, that would be incredibly awesome! Of course it can dual boot Windows (or Linux), both on the original and the modified hardware. It's just a PC. That much is trivial ...

I think with no EXs loaded mine boots in about 30-40 seconds. Well, I have a bizarre proposition for you. If you're honestly interested in supporting this, I'm willing to offer up my Kronos 73 as an 'external test device'. I have an IT background, and understand Linux well enough but I'm more of a ...

If I understand correctly, a sub 20 second bootup time should be possible even without replacing the motherboard by simply using a custom kernel and decrypting the images. With a bit of work, it may even be possible to create an unofficial software update to do this. Obtaining more polyphony will ...

Whilst it's not something I'm keen to try right now, it may very well be if a motherboard comes along that is more compatible with the D510MO board already in my Kronos (physically, electrically, thermally and in terms of IO). Unfortunately, modern chipsets always go with xHCI, so the best you ...

There's nothing wrong with what we're doing. Modification of musical instruments ...

Balanced audio carries both a positive and a negative signal, which are subtracted at the destination. If you use an unbalanced (TS) cable to connect two pieces of balanced gear, you're throwing away (actually shorting out, but that's fine by design) half of the signal, and so your level will be 6dB ...
