New additions to my list (I edited it above):

16. Saving default disk/ram destination selection in sampling mode.
17. Autoincrement based on existing filenames, so no prompts File Already Exists, breaking your inspiration when sampling something to disk.

Thanks)

1) No More,

"Kronos has shut down because of an error. This can happen from power recycling too quickly. Shut down the Kronos, wait 10 seconds, and reboot."

It would be good if there is a built-in vocal processor (as in Pa4X)

I know some miltary equipment that has a build in mini ups, to overcome power fluctuations in the net, its just a few secconds..and a small battery plus loader and a filter unit and a dc/ac converter. And some surge protection. It also prevents equipment from being fried when power comes back...


Ingenious design... Should be in all keyboards power supply to prevent this kind of problems.

Military equipment probably has a military service plan. UPS batteries usually have to be replaced after three years. Don't get me wrong, I think it's a good idea especially for something like the Kronos which has proven to be a bit more picky about current and voltage than other (less high-tech) boards. But I wonder how they could take that hurdle.

My WishList update:

18. Pin-code protection of whole Kronos at start up to prevent it from being stolen. And password reset via digital signiture similar to HDD drive from a USB stick.
19. Pin-code protection of whole Kronos setup to prevent it's settings from being modified without your permission - similar to PC lock screen.
20. Sampling in set list mode.
21. Easy change of a keyboard split point in programs with split sounds by holding a button and pressing a key.

Metronome drum patterns

Post by tcornishmn »

Metronome drum patterns

I'm aware of the existing patterns 417 and 418 for metronome, however both of these are 4/4 time. I would love to see a pattern that doesn't have the first beat accented so it can be used in any time signature, as well as patterns for accented 3/4 time and 6/8 time.

Right now I'm working around this by pointing pattern 417 to a program edited to ignore velocity changes, but it would be great to have this built-in.

+1 to the idea of additional program banks. I would trade sample RAM to make this happen.
+1 to the idea of having a licensing transfer mechanism where a Kronos can be de-authorized and a new one re-authorized.

Both of these issues keep me from being interested in the huge amount of aftermarket soundware.

Wish-list update:

17. Relative mode for user scales, so you could set cents relative to adjacent notes and not absolute to root note, to be able to spread 100 cents evenly across 12 keys, for instance. And Spread or Stretch mode to stretch required amount of cents across required amount of keys.

That's an easy task: make your own via user-drumpattern.
I made one with a simple clave-click, works fine.
Best regards, Robert
