Kronos Editing software

Hi folks

Having trouble finding the download for the Kronos editor/library software on the Korg website. The website is so sluggish and it keeps timing out. Does anyone have a quick link?

I've been using an APC UPS for some years now. Great for gigs where the venue has limiters. The only disadvantage is that it's bulky and heavy - I have the APC UPS400.

Well, the Zoom H6 works brilliantly powered off the Kronos USB socket - without even the need for a data block cable. I tried it last night on a gig.

It's great to only need 2 mains sockets for a 2 board rig, with no need for wall warts.

Thanks for your help VOIP.

The 1A consumption by the DR-70 (inferred from the 5W max in the spec) is almost certainly worst case, supplying phantom power via the mic inputs and max volume to the headphones. For comparison, the Tascam DP-008 consumes around 200mA during recording (no phantom power and a comfortable headphone ...

The Kronos user manual states "There is a limitation to the total current supplied to all connected USB devices, as defined by the USB specification. If the total current consumption of the connected devices exceeds this limit, the KRONOS may not correctly recognize the connected USB devices. If ...

Kronos 2 USB power

Does anyone know the output in amps of the Kronos USB sockets? Reason I ask, I'm looking to get either a Tascam DR70 or Zoom H6 to mount on it, and I'm hoping to run them on USB power. I need 1Amp.

Sure thing Dave. That's easy enough. You'll have to program the pitch change in the program of the sound you want to manipulate via the Combi. psionic311 actually was correct, and that's how you probably should approach making the layers switch the way you're asking. You'd want to edit the string ...

Also not at my Kronos atm, but another option is to program one of the switches above the joystick to change octaves. One way to do this is to select the Strings timbre in your combi, select Edit Program from upper right dropdown, which will bring up the the Strings program. Navigate to the ...

Transposing a sound on one half of a split in Combi

Hi I'm programming up a Combi. Stab Pad on lower half, Strings on upper. At times I need to drop Strings down an octave, but the Kronos only seems to do this globally, i.e, if I hit button 1 it transposes the lower voice down an octave too. I want to be able to keep my split, and just toggle the ...

I've just bought a Nord Electro5HP 73 to go with my Kronos. The RD700 board is too heavy at 25kg (39kg with a hard case!) , but the Nord only weighs 11.4kg and is so neat.
I tried out the Royal Piano - might replace the Italian Piano with this.

Yamaha DXR10. Fantastic Speaker. Portable, yet very powerful. Handles the full frequency range with clarity.

I use it as a floor monitor and for solo/duo gigs in bars & restaurants, as the main speaker.

I AB'd it with the K10's and I much preferred the Yamaha.

Try Roadcases USA. I have purchased at least 5 keyboard cases over the past 5 years and a few other cases for other gear. They are straight forward and will build exactly to your specs, so you can add as much padding as you like. There are also multiple levels of protection, but all are wood with a ...

No experience with the Korg case, but if it's anything like my SKB, it's no good for flying unless you have something like the Kross inside (which I do fly with). For cars and such it's fine. Just don't smash something on it. The new roto molded cases might be better. But I never tried them: https ...

Do yourself (and your back) a favour and find one of these - old style Gator case with TWO handles so all the weight is not through one arm as in the new ones. No idea why they changed, this is a great design ergonomically: http://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/yUgAAOSwcUBYJvFZ/s-l1600.jpg http://www.ebay ...
