BPM Delay

Post by bfeinsilver »

Hello,

I can't seem to set the BPM parameter for the "BPM Delay" FX lower than 30-40BPM. If I try to set it below the minimum, the parameter defaults back to "MIDI." Does anyone know how to achieve a slower delay effect on the Kross-1?

Thanks,

Ben

Hi,

Nope, the delay BPM parameter only reaches 40 BPM at its minimum and then jumps to MIDI.

I've been playing around with it a bit, and the delay effects are disappointing to me. At some paragraphs the documentation talks about 274ms, at others it is 2730ms. When trying it out, it does not go to the range indicated in the documentation.

E.g. stereo BPM delay, the parameter guide indicates maximum 2730ms, in practice I reach only maximum 274ms. 10x less than the documentation suggests...

Oh for stereo BPM delay the delay is like this: delay in seconds = 60/BPM setting*Times setting/8 (if the 1/32 base note is chosen). It overflows if this value is larger than 0.274s...

Have fun.

I have the same bug. Sadly. Does anyone else have the same problem?

Also, I noticed that the pitch wheel selects the entire range on the half scroll (or around). After half a scroll, the further movement of the wheel has no effect. Does anyone else have the same problem too?

Hi,

For the pitch wheel, do you have it on all programs? Or on a particular one?

Hi.

First of all, it is about KROSS 2. (Not sure is this suitable topic?)

All programs. In KORG KROSS 2 EDITOR the "programm" pitch wheel works ok. When I take half of a scroll of physical wheel the programm wheel takes full scroll. So it seems like MIDI is OK, and there is incorrect calibration of physical wheel or it's broken. But to be more exact, the problem is observed only when scrolling pitch wheel up, not down.

Hmm...
Maybe create another thread in the Kross group specific for your issue.
