Karma and Setlist Color Problems on my Kronos 2

Post by gboser »

I've recently developed some strange issues with my 61 kronos 2. The first thing that started happening is default combis with any karma components don't work after booting. Combis that normally trigger drum patterns just produce a single thud and then die. The problem also doesn't happen every time. Sometimes on reboot will bring it back and other times, it seems to take several. (And a period of rest).

On the last time I booted and the combis working properly, all of the slot colors used in the default setlist were gone. Everything worked, but all slots were set back to the default grey.

After the first time, I added the color back, and it stayed for awhile, but the last time I fired it up, the colors were gone again.

Has anyone had similar problems? And if so, what was the issue? (I'm thinking maybe it's RAM related)

Don't really know, but if the MIDI Clock setting in Global > MIDI were somehow going to "external", the KARMA and Drum Patterns would not play, since it would be waiting for MIDI clock.

I'd go for the simplest answer: you loaded another set of data.
If you're loading a PCG with Global settings, that would affect your clock settings, too.
