A new video up over at Korg UK:
QUEEN'S SPIKE EDNEY - BEHIND THE SCENES WITH THE KORG KRONOS
Go behind the scenes of legendary rock band Queen and see how the Korg KRONOS is the only keyboard needed on tour to perform the multitude of hits covering 30 years including "The Show Must Go On" and "Radio Gaga". Spike Edney has been Queen's musical director and keyboard player performing on all the tours since 1984, including the legendary Live Aid gig.

Great video! They do need to get a new keyboard stand though.

I imagine it would be an "X" stand... Come to think of it, it will probably be a Red X stand. : )

Good video. Certainly makes the point that the Kronos covers the bread and butter keyboard sounds well for a good 30 year span of music for a professional band.

Very very interesting video. It is amazing!!
Could anyone tell me how he did the radio gaga synth bass arp ? With RPPR Pattern ? Or is it the arp of a synth engine?

I tried to do it with Polysix Engine arp but I cannot get the original sequence, I think the only way is RPPR ... Other suggestions?

Hi Simur!
I bought the Multitrack Song from Song Galaxy and sampled the parts I needed.

Hi Laste7,
It could be an option but I think it would be more flexible to play a Kronos sound, so you can change time and tempo if you want. In the video Spike talks about an arpeggiator, but I think it could be also a RPPR as well...
