Splitting 2 voices on the keyboard

Post by emilflatron »

Hello,

Does anybody know how to split 2 voices on the keyboard, so that the lower octave (left hand side of the keyboard - from A1 to G3) is 074: stereo orchestral brass and the higher octave (right hand side of the keyboard - from G#3 to G9) is 068: 16'+8' harpsichord + pluk?

Thanks for help!

Try the Operations Guide. It would be in the section about "Combis".

1. Go to the ProgSelect/Mixer tab.
2. Select a brass sound for Timbre 1 (e.g.: 074).
3. Select a harpsi sound for Timbre 2 (e.g.: 068).

4. Go to the MIDI tab of the Timbre Parameters page.
- For Timbres 1‐2 (sounds: 074 and 068), set 'Status' to INT
- For Timbres 1‐2 set 'MIDI Channel' to Gch

Image

5. Go to the Keyboard Zones tab of the MIDI Filter/Zones page.
- For Timbre 1 set 'Top Key' to G3, and 'Bottom Key' to A1
- For Timbre 2 set 'Top Key' to G9 and 'Bottom Key' to G#3

Enjoy :D

no i think ronnfig's intention is not like that..
Creating split combi is a simple operation that should be available on the manual.. or even in quick start guide. or maybe in the video.. If you kept asking simple questions like this without intention of finding it yourself in the manual, you'd be lost my friend.. kronos is a deep machine..
Love my kronos 88 :D
Love my yamaha psr s910 as well

I have to say that, the Kronos is a bit of a monster if it's your first workstation..

On some keyboards, split and layer is very easy.. and there are dedicated buttons.. Not so with the Kronos, and the manuals are pretty overwhelming.. so let's cut the newbies some slack here..

Kudos to AlchemistMusicStudio for the detailed instructions..

AMS showed you the way.

However, this wouldn't copy the effects of the Programs you want to use. So best is to use the command "Copy from Program". That way, you get the effects settings as well. Then you can finalize your split with the Zone tab.
