Kross 2 vs. Microstation

Post by Scott »

I am considering replacing my Microstation with a Kross 2 as my super-portable board. It's 3.8 kg instead of 2.6, but it's got full-size keys and it runs on batteries, plus I like wheels better than joystick (and the two assignable buttons), and it has an updated sound set and nicer display. But there are trade-offs, like only 2 knobs instead of 4, and it seems like the 16 buttons can't be used to select a timbre in a combi (or track in a song). I was wondering if anyone else looked into this and came up with other significant differences, in particular anything I might lose when going to the Kross (I know Kross has a number of other things that the MS does not, like sample memory and more foot controllers.)
