Issue with muted programs in combi

Post by nabi425 »

On my Kronos 2 I have made 4 programs based on 4 single samples (ripped from CD - convert MS to program). They all load and play back fine in program mode.

Then I try to make a combi with these 4 programs, using the “copy from program” command, to each of the first 4 timbres in an initial combi.

What happens is that only the first program can be heard when playing the keys (timbre 1), and the 3 other timbres are muted somehow. I have tried to set timbres 1-4 to midi channel Gch, and also tried to set top and bottom key for of these timbres, in order to split them over the keyboard. Still no sound from timbres 2-4.

When I try to make such a combi with Kronos programs it works just fine

So why doesn’t it work with my “self made” programs?

"I have tried to set timbres 1-4 to midi channel Gch"
why to Gch ????
Each of your program to the same channel 1

For each timbre you want to sound, ensure Status is Int not Off, Play is selected, and no timbre has Solo selected.

Thanks for replies.

Sorry, my description was a bit faulty, actually I can hear all 4 programs, but they are all on the same key (C2 on my 61) - since they are only subtly different from each other I did not realise that all programs played together on the same key - ---- oh well..

So, my actual problem:
In "keyboard zones" I have set each program/timbre to different top and bottom keys, but all but the C2 key are still dead silent.

Again, this is not a problem if I use Kronos programs instead of my own sample based programs.

Any ideas?

I understand. Your problem coming from the sample map. You start making programs from your own sample, you map on C2 for all 4 programs. If use it in combi try to transpose to play from other keys then C2 before select the key zone.
