The piano samples are simply the best I've ever heard. That's probably why I still have it. Otherwise, PC/DAW support is awful. MidiQuest Pro was an expensive letdown. I went back to the touch screen because the app was extremely slow and fraught with bugs. This will most likely be my last hardware ...

Thank you, Sander. I am going to upgrade my Steinberg UR44 with the RME UCX. I realize there are inherent limitations with the USB format, but I desperately need to shave off some latency. It seems that RME's reputation is unmatched in this regard, from what I've heard of them.

USB or MIDI Ports?

Let's say I'm using Cubase 9 and my interface is the RME UCX. This particular interface does not have MIDI ports, but the Kronos is plugged into the computer through USB. I assume MIDI data from the Kronos would be conveyed to Cubase via USB and the MIDI ports are not necessary for this application?

Many thanks for this post! It worked great! I have not tried this with combis yet, but I assume these instructions can be extended to capturing multiple KARMA tracks simultaneously?

Now that I have the Kronos communicating with Cubase, how do I record KARMA data onto a track? For instance, let's say I create a MIDI track and select the German Grand Piano program for that track. With KARMA enabled, I press and hold middle C for two measures. Although I can hear the notes KARMA ...

Re: Better DAW integration

Now in current daw's it's quite easy to solve the 2 basic integration requirements: - selecting the combi: you can just send a bank change and program change to your kronos to select the combi you are using for the song. I would advise to use combis for that because you can store combis in the ...

I absolutely love the Kronos programs and combis, but my overall objective is to use the onboard sequencer as little as possible and do virtually all of my composing work in Cubase.

USB Versus MIDI Connection to Audio Interface

Anyone have opinions about how the Kronos should be hooked up? My interface is a Steinberg UR44. Thanks!

KARMA GE: QED in 7 + waveseq

I absolutely LOVE this particular KARMA engine. Instead of the pattern transitioning in 7 beats, is there a way to make it go to 8 beats?

Do I really need this and can I get it from the Korg website? I saw it on another driver website but I don't want to load it onto my music computer if I don't need to. I definitely think you need it. Here is the link to the Korg support page with the driver: http://i.korg.com/SupportPage.aspx ...

I am so new at this and I have already wasted way too much time diddling around. At this point, I would literally *pay* for a comprehensive video tutorial on getting started with the Kronos and Cubase 7.5...

I just want to spend my time actually making music...

Is it possible to record the MIDI notes from KARMA to Cubase, or are we limited to audio only?
