A couple of questions...

Hi. I've had my Kronos 61 since the end of July. I simply adore this keyboard. I've been very patiently waiting to get everything I need before I take it out on live shows. It's very precious too me( the most I've ever spent on a keyboard to date).
Now, I need help in finding a UPS for it. Can anyone recommend one as I've no knowledge about them what so ever. It'll be for the Kronos and, for a while, a triton classic( just till I get the Kronos fully programmed).
Secondly I programmed a combination for Jump ( I know...). I used the patch 4osc Plain Stab (user E006), it uses the ms20 and poly 6. Anyway I came across a problem. When I went to the 1st initialised combi and selected the above patch it sounded wrong. It sounded like one osc had a pitch envelope on it. The original sounded fine. Only in the combination this wierd effect occured. Has anyone else had this kind of error?
I got it working correctly eventually... But it took a while!!!

Cheers for the suggestions. I've had a look and there's just so many to choose from!! Does anyone know what spec I would need to cover my needs? I'd be running a korg Kronos 61 and a triton classic along with a headphone preamp, for monitoring.
There was a few on dabs that caught my eye but I want to be sure I get what I need! Otherwise it could be costly.
This is mainly in case of a power cut which, playing in the venues I play at, could easily happen.

Hi,
with an APC all should work fine.
As far as you asked for the combie:
Have you improted all ifx, MFX, TFX and Karma? When importing the programm into the combie check all boxes, then it should sound like the programm. Maybe it is not an initialized combie?
hop that helps

Yes, make sure you are using the import function which is part of the drop down menu (upper right corner) when in combi mode. Then you can import the effects and other things mentioned above with the program. This is better than simply adding the program to the combi directly. If you add it directly to a timbre, you won't get the effects and have to add them manually. That changes the sound substantially of some programs.
Have Fun!

Thanks guys. I think I know what I need as far as a UPS is concerned now.
As for the combination. I did use the import which, at first, worked until I added some strings. Then that wierd pitch bending at the beginning of the sound. It had nothing to do with any effect either as that's what I thought at first as well. Try it yourself and let me know if you have the same problem. Import 4osc plain stab(User E006) then any string patch(Stereo strings or similar). It's only the synth that has the wierd pitch adjustment. It only effects 1 osc (in a double osc patch). It's sporadic as well.. Didn't always happen.
RobbinHood did you get my PM?
