Im saying goodbye

spaceman3 · Post by **spaceman3** » Thu May 12, 2016 12:52 am

Its been over a year since i got my KRONOS.
Within that time i gradually started using my finger instead of my stylus on the touchscreen.
I have to say that i can work the screen better and faster with my finger.
So therefore i am saying goodbye to my stylus.
I have developed a light touch with the screen, and i keep my nails cut short and i only use the soft part of my finger.
I always clean the screen after every long play session.
I remember back in the late 80s, watching STAR TREK TNG,
and i used to think, wow! i wish i had a studio that could work like the touch interfaces of the enterprise.
Now we have the touch interface in our starship KRONOS!

You have emerged the brave new frontier of " no stylus ".

They should build Siri into the Kronos with a little directional mic.

"Siri - next slot, and give me overb on that with a little chorus. And where is the nearest Starbucks?"

I know this is off topic, but in the 80s, i had a thing (crush) for Linda Hamilton.
She be fine!

She's turning 60 this year!

Are all the Kronos users old? (Like me)

In case i go before my KRONOS.
I have left messages in my KRONOS with instructions to certain people,
who i know will finish my musical work.
I hope my KRONOS outlives me.
I dont want to buy another synth/studio.

That's why they built in the automatic power off after four hours. If we go while playing that way not much electricity will be wasted. Unless over course, we expire over the keyboard with keys depressed - then karma will play on and on ------ which is the way karma should work

would be a huge final chord that would use up all polyphony
