Zero - Have had it for a month and all is well. The new CX3 sounds killer! I think my Perfect Strangers program sounds better than Lord's did. But he was limited back in 1984.

Good job Korg!

I just got my K61 and have been using the CX-3 a lot and the timing of this update could not be any better!

I have compared the XF8 and Kronos at a store in Sacramento that had both units. The Kronos; conceptually, is easier to understand for me. The display of the XF series keyboards relies upon buttons below the display that don't always seem to line up. To me, they seem disjointed with the display ...

Wouldn't it be great if the Kronos had a video output that could drive a monitor to display notes by set list entry? Notes, lead sheets, vocals, PDF files, etc. Would be priceless in a live gig situation.

Jordan Rudess could just use a standard monitor...

I have a Motif XF8 and you can have it! (After you give me some serious cash). The interface of the Motif is impossible to use. I have not gotten my Kronos yet, but my Triton was far easier to use than the Motif. I was able to program the Triton for a covers band and it was easy compared to anything ...

Sharp: I'm a guitarist of forty years experience so I really know what a guitar is supposed to sound like. Your acoustic samples sound great! I am looking forward to getting your EXs-91 when I get my Kronos. Good job Mate! AnDeRoo: How long, in time/seconds are the samples on the Sweetwater CD? Do ...

Thanks Sander and PhatBuzz for your advice. I had seen Jim's post on the new Mini Vent. It looks great. Since I play my guitars through an Axe Fx II it's a no brainier that I can run the Kronos through the Leslie simulator in the Axe and chose any amp I want to have for over-driving the CX3. I have ...

Thanks for the advice SanderXpander. Your right. Initially I will be doing a butt-load of recording then later on will be gigging with far less recording. If the CX3 sounds really good with a Vent or the Burn then that is the way to start. If I need a weighted board then the Casio would fulfill that ...

Great post and Thanks for the links all in one place! Thanks phattbuzz. I think my choices come down to either a Kronos X 61, Vent or Burn or Hammond SK1 73, Casio Privia PX-5S, Vent or Burn There are several pro players jamming live with the bottom setup and they swear by it. Tough choice since the ...

Hi Jeremykeys and Thanks for helping me out! I am located in Reno Nevada and the closest place to see a K61 is in Sacramento, about 2.5 hour drive over the mountains. Doable but not convenient. There is a local store that has one in stock but I refuse to do business with them... Long story... These ...

Okay... Now you guys have me worried... I was just about to buy a K61 and with you guys making comments about not being able to get a decent distorted amp out of the KKX I am now doubting the purchase. My background as you can guess by my avatar is that I really enjoy Jon Lord and his organ "beast ...

Korgsters: Read Dan's words carefully:
The fix should be available very soon, in 1.5.
