The price point for a high quality product will be what it will be, if you can’t afford it buy the product which is the next level down. Simple. Vas And that was my point. Not enough people are willing and/or able to meet the higher price point of the instrument you're demanding. If there were, ...

These discussions usually miss the point of how product development works in a company like Korg. Product decisions are market driven. Price point drives the decision of what features and capabilities will be in an instrument. They can make a product that can do anything musicians want. I'm ...

I don't think it's expected. Sadly, it would appear that the Kronos was the end of the line for the flagship workstation. As Sharp said, we can dream. But at the moment it seems very unlikely...

From Kurt Adler’s FB Page: Dear KORG, Thank you so much for the new update 3.14 that removes the limitation of EXs installation but it would be great if you continue to support your flagship users! It would be great if you expand the dark mode and also the program banks like the Nautilus! I know t ...

This is pretty underwhelming from a product support POV. Basically they just made it possible to buy more EXs.

I think it is easier just to load the Song file, then initialize the Sequences you want to delete. Then go back to disk mode and save the Song file. The songs you don’t want are now deleted from the file.

It is easier and more effective to do this in a Sequence Mode than in Combi. I do this all the time. You need to convert your MP3s to WAVs. Choose an empty song in Sequence mode. Copy from the COMBI that you want to use in your performance. Then go to Track Edit, choose Audio Track 1. Add an audio ...

Oh Man. the workstation is still in demand. Roland's Fantom is running supreme with all the new features being added and more to come. The all in one solution is still strong. All the different technologies in the one box with control surface and a key bed attached to the one system with a great ...

I can’t see Korg abandoning their significant investment in the Kronos and OASYS platform and operating system given that it runs on commodity hardware. It's been essentially abandoned for years. There hasn't been an OS patch or upgrade in many years. Korg has milked the Kronos/OASYS platform dry. ...

Kronos is end of life.. Nautilus will cover the high end till the Next high end Korg workstation rolls out of Korgs factories.. Much like the M3 covered the time between Oasys and Kronos. I was under the impression that the Nautilus was a watered down version of the Kronos for covering lower price ...

And by the way, to the person that said most songs posted here were two-and-three-chord vamps as opposed to Jordan Rudess' note-wanks, please note that it is those two-and-three-chord vamps that bring home the bacon, so to speak, the cash, the dough... There have been really great and memorable ...

It won't be out for another three years minimum.
If there was going to be one, it would've appeared by now. Kronos 2 is very likely the end of the full-fledged flagship workstation. I hope I'm wrong, but I don't think so.

Hi there, I have two SSDs in my K2 88 so it can be done, even though as you discovered it is more difficult compared to earlier models because (at least in the 88-key version of the K2) there are additional solidifying metal plates and you have to temporarily remove the one above the mobo to ...

I don't think it's arrogance, I think it's business. Korg certainly has its finger to the wind in terms of marketing and product placement. If they believed there was a market for a new full-featured workstation, there would be one. For a tech company like Korg, it's not about making a particular ...

Re: Oh boy, I screwed up.

Okay. I have two Kronos's/Kroni (whatever) one for studio and one for live performance. I purchased a KaPro library and it's authorized to the WRONG Kronos. I only need it on the studio Kronos, but somehow it's assigned to the live Kronos. The authorization code is assigned to the Live Kronos. Any ...
