Katoh-san was a truly extraordinary individual. I had the opportunity to know him mostly thru the times he would come down to the voicing studios in Tokyo while we (the Korg MPB's) were working together on the finalized voicing for many many synthesizers (O1W, Trinity, Triton, Z1). He was like a ...

Korg Inc. YouTube 18 Min. KRONOS Demo

Dudes, please allow me to introduce you to my boss and the head of Korg Inc.'s voicing team, Taiki Imaizumi. I've worked with Imaizumi-san since 1989 on over 15 Korg products and follow-up voicing support for many of those products. In this video, he introduces you very simply to the 9 different ...

I didn't say they are not - but we're also not Korg marketing.... :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: This is why they're SUBTRACTIVE. That's a synthesis method . The principle of work is the same between them: get a raw sound, filter it, amplify it. Add modulations if you want. In this regard, they ...

I find this argument kind of amusing 8) After programming and making over 300 of the factory presets found in all of the various OASYS models, I can vouch that each model of "subtractive" synthesis has almost no relation to another included model of subtractive synthesis. OSC, Filtering, Routing and ...

Kronos Grand Piano Demo - Frozen Falls

Greetings everybody. I just finished a short film I produced of a morning doing photography at a frozen waterfall. I did some slowing down of the video playback to allow the effects of the water to be better appreciated.... The music score uses a lot of different instruments. But the one that you ...

Re: Challenger 25th Anniversary Tribute - created with KRONO

Well done, Stephen. I actually wish your vocals were a little louder mix wise, but the message of the song is really touching. It doesn't sound like a demo song (in a good way, actually) and the video really helps it sink in what the song is about. But I'm glad you are finally able to get it out to ...

My friend, you can do whatever you wish to do. I love the pads on these instruments. Every factory Combination and Program I've created (well over 400 in OASYS and many more in KRONOS) has chord pads assigned. I love composition via chord pads - it's a very unique and special ability. I totally ...

I traveled from my mom & dad's music store in Ontario Oregon 480 miles to see the introduction of the DX-7 in Portland Oregon. I've programmed or sold fm synthesizers since they came out. I have made a custom patch bank I sell at my website (www.pluginguru.com) for FM8. Nothing comes close to the ...

Re: I wont buy one because they forgot the drum pads.

They exist on the touch screen and if that isn't good enough, you can get a microKontrol of the pads. Dude, seriously, with everything new put into this, 8 rubber pads are going to be the deal breaker? That's like not buying a car because it doesn't come with cup holders. I wont buy one because they ...

AL1 is the same between the two. You can of course compare the specs for the OASYS and KRONOS on korg.com. For example: KRONOS: AL1: Modulation: Five Envelope generators, four per-voice LFOs, two AMS Mixers; Per-voice Step Sequencer. OASYS: AL1: Modulation: Five Envelope generators, four per-voice ...

The dual-processor handles things differently. There will be polyphony issues if you are playing huge chords with monster Combinations plus Drum Track. It's still very easy to make OASYS cough if you use unison patches and effects without thinking of the cost. You can resample itself easily if ...
