Hi,
I have been using Studio One with no luck. Is anybody else using the Kronos as a keyboard controller and an external device at the same time?
What quality DAW program are you using and is it working?

Cubase 6 W7/64 with absolutely no problems. But in general... the best DAW is the one you know best

Paterrob,
What issues are you having exactly? There are two main difficencies with Studio One as far as interfacing with the Kronos is concerned: lack of Sysex handling and inabilitiy to store program names. Both of these issues can be mitigated relatively elegantly.
Using Studio One here with no problems. I've started two other threads that may help: one containing a link to a Kronos instrument definition file for S1, and the other with some tips on configuring the Kronos for use with a DAW.
I gave Cubase a go to see if it's integration was any better than S1, and the windowing system in Cubase alone was a big enough detractor not to consider making the switch.
