Update as of May 2, 2018 - The replacement Kronos LS that Sweetwater sent to replace the error-prone booting of the original LS I bought ALSO had major booting failure as well. So, I decided that enough was enough with Kronos. I sent this also-defective Kronos LS back to Sweetwater for a full refund ...

I’ve had the same issues with my brand-new Kronos LS that I got in January and that hasn’t been moved out of my house since. On occasion when turning it on, I’ll get the “System Boot Failure” message. Restarting it ends up making things work fine, but I am concerned about further problems. As I boug ...

Re: Kronos 2: How many have installed second SSDs?

I was wondering how many Kronos 2 owners here have installed second SSDs? Does anyone know what the largest SSD that's compatible? Well... just recieved my kronos2. What I think is, I will add more ram and a second ssd when the time comes for me to replace my battery... What say folks? If you ...

An old thread, I know...but - I just purchased a Yamaha Motif Rack XS as a companion sound source for my new Korg Kronos LS... I notice that even in Combi mode, if I disable all of the slots within the Combi, the Motif still plays. If I enable an EXT2 mode on one of the slots on the correct MIDI ...

I'd purchase a 73/76 semi-weighted Kronos today. Why not get the Kronos LS then ? It's hands down the best keyboard I've owned to date ( so many, since 1982 )... The extra keys are wonderful, and it is so very responsive to touch...I don't miss the heavy-weighted keys one bit. It's amazingly light ...

What makes this question's answer not elementary in nature is Korg's sample streaming ability. I have sampled over a dozen VST sounds with long samples times of 10 to 20 seconds each. In my older EMU gear this would eat up memory real fast. But in the Kronos, only the beginning of the samples are ...

How Much User Sampling Time/Space in stock Korg Kronos 2 ?

Hi, This question may have been answered before, but I haven't found a "straight" answer with regards to how much user-sampling time/space the Korg Kronos 2 (LS) has after it loads in the basic Preload.ksc. Just curious, as I'm hoping that this Kronos can be used like a "serious" sampler like the ...

Really glad to read you like it. Very much a persomal preference thing. I returned an LS 88 for the weighted keys of a full Kronos. I have found that the LS is a very polarizing key bed....you either love it or you don’t. Glad you do - rock on! Thanks ! I DO love the LS keybed. Feels like a piano a ...

Korg Collection Migration...What the heck ??

Wow. As a registered owner of the full Korg Legacy Collection, I attempted to "migrate" my account over to their new server in order to be able to upgrade my collection for free. I followed the instructions exactly, and what a mess Korg has made this update process ! They ask you to create a new ...
