Question for Korg

[My Bad]

Could you please advise if you intend to supply a specific Kronos,Windows 8.1 editor.
I dont want to buy the SoundQuest one as it has options for other keyboards and modules that i will never use.

Many thanks

There already is one, it's just made by Soundquest. No other modules are included. Is it not working for you? (I don't use it much)

Thanks for responding, i cant use the Kronos without an editor, im blind but i still have a tiny area of peripheral vision.
This enables me to use the editor combined with an on-screen magnifier, the editor dies not include the file loading screen, so i set up a webcam above the Kronos screen to allow me to stream the data to the Pc and magnify the load screen.
Its a bit of a struggle but at least i can use the Kronos this way.

Could you advise me how much the Win 8 Kronos editor is please.

Many thanks

It's free.

Thanks

Many thanks

Yes, i read it earlier today, its great, i just hope Korg listen.

I don't know where you downloaded it but the Kronos editor is available from Korg, not Soundquest. Soundquest is only relevant if you want to upgrade the copy supplied by Korg, for instance to get 64-bit VST support or to get more modules.

Yes, its the Win 8, 64 bit vst i need.
The only way i can use the old 2.1 editor is to go back to Win 7 and revert the new 3.02 OS back to 2.1 on the Kronos.

I will just have to hope Korg issue a new editor that suits my needs, i cant use the Kronos until that happens so i will use my Yamaha XS which was supplied with a Win 8 64 bit standalone and vst editor.

Thanks again for your help.

The lack of 64-bit VST support is a common gripe. For what it's worth, the standalone editor works fine on a 64-bit OS. It's just the VST that won't work in a 64-bit DAW. If it's an option for you, you can still run a 32-bit DAW on a 64-bit OS.

Thanks for the tip, i am currently using Cubase 7.5 64 bit, i like it, im really disappointed with Korg re the lack of a 64 bit editor, its a huge barrier to me.
I have purchased nearly every synth Korg has produced since the M1 and liked them all, the Kronos is the icing on the cake but the lack of an editor is a massive drawback for me.
It will affect my future decisions on which company i buy my next keyboard from.

Thanks for all your advice, its really appreciated.
