Whats missing in KRONOS..

Post by Bachus »

With KRONOS being the top workstation on this globe you'd think people would be vey satisfied over the instrument, yet people allways want more...

So what do you think is missing from this lovely instrument

-Sequencer from M3, espescially the piano roll.
-MOSS technollogy
-RADIAS technollogy
-Processor Power and/or options to expand the current processor Power.
-Memory expansions for own sample sets
-Drumpads (physical and touch sensitive)
-The option to use PA series styles
-DNC controlled sounds

Thats allready quite a list adressed from diferent people on these forums...

Some most will agree on, other options are only missed by part of the population of these boards...

What do you think that they should have added to KRONOS but is currently missing?

no, please.

not another step towards "play it with a finger" synthesizers.

Arpegiators and sequencers are humiliating enough...

... but... STYLES?!?

My advice... don't sell your other equipment. Let the Kronos enhance your setup. Not to be the ALL encompassing mothership.

I've always noticed that the All-In-One devices don't do any of the tasks with exellence. There are numerous examples of this in many areas of technology.

Code is the most flexible construction material known to man. With it, you can break any physical law. :)

Could you also explain why this is so...

Because with current days technollogy everything is possible...

----------------------------------

Now everyone is complaining about adding Arranger styles to the list which was not even my idea, but someone else posted that in another thread... Because i created the list with things other people on this forum asked for in other threads. I tought it would be better to group all that info in one post..

And what happens, i get attacked like the very first Troll...

So you all agree that KRONOS is perfect in its current form?

For Korg, it's more like, "Damned if you do, damned if you don't."
