Re: dead switches

I do not recommend spraying DeOxit into it. First, the tac switch is covered by the button. Little to no DeOxit will make it into the switch. Also, using more pressure to make it work will stress the button and can break it. In my experience, replacing the switches is the answer. It's a pain but ...

dead switches

some of the tac switches no longer respond, do i need to open it up , I'm thinking to spray de-oxit. The korg has seen very little use the past 3 yrs as I had other things going on. prog, combi, seq , all those in that group are duds except the global switch is fine although it takes more pressure ...

On screen, press the CONTROL SURFACE tab. This will show what the physical buttons/sliders are assigned to. Press TONE ADJUST to go into that mode. Even more cool, is that you can record all of these movements into the sequencer, and then play back your sound manipulation. <iframe width="560 ...

I haven't posted anything in quite a while. Don't know why but I also haven't been on the Forum in quite a while. My apologies. Here are a few new things that I've done during these trying times. Hope you like them and please, feel free to share them if you want. All these songs feature the Kronos ...

So does this logically suggest you could do a video out ? to a touchscreen tablet or ...? Nope, I'm simply using the existing hardware in the Kronos. The screen uses OMAP processors and dedicated ICs on Korg proprietary PCBs, which means it would be very complicated to adapt it to external devices ...

I am pleased you checked out the songs and noted favorites. My in-laws also called them out as favorites. "Chill" or downtempo, as a genre had a brief run in the late 90's. I borrowed the term to keep identification simple. I like movie soundtracks and possibly what I record has a resemblance ...

New.
Whilst there are deals on used, it often backfires.

Its not the same as a car where you can save a LOT of money.
I paid $2K for a $46K volvo and I've put 100K miles on it so far.

The difference between used and new Kronos is only a few more weeks saving up.

I appreciate all your thoughts, good observations, brother. Here is one of the YouTubes that caught my attention on the creative part of the brain.

https://www.forbes.com/sites/daviddisalvo/2018/01/19/study-shows-how-the-creative-brain-is-wired-differently/#152dadb831a0 There are a few folks that assert creativity on music/keyboards is a lot of BS. Had to get that out of the way. For me, creativity on Kronos is a healthy daily addiction. Call ...
