Hallo Korgies
After many problems, I have my Korg Kronos x73 sells!!
My new Stage-Piano is the Kawai MP7!!!
Great part of excellent workmanship!
Would like to hereby say goodbye and wish all Kronos owners have a nice time.

I sold my Kronos X 88 and got the Kawai MP10 last year, best decision I ever made.
I simply adore the keybed on the Kawai.
Sure I loved what the Kronos could do, but after 2 originals and one X and clunky keys here, bouncy keys there, I just couldn't enjoy playing it.
My Kawai, while I don't rate the inbuilt sounds over some of the other libraries I have, I still often just switch it on and play for hours, simply loving the feel of the keys (and it's ready to play in under 5 secs)
I even really enjoy playing it with no sound, when I'm waiting for something to download or whatever on my PC, I just play silently and it's bliss.
The Kronos keybed is like a childs toy in comparison my opinion. Had they brought out a Kronos module like the M3 one, I would have brought it in a heartbeat as I love the sounds of the Kronos.
Mind you, HALion5, Komplete 9 Ultimate, True Keys Italian and Cubase 7.5, I would be lying if I said I wasn't in heaven with what I have.
It's a real real shame, I really felt the quality of the Kronos keybed let the entire instrument down, whatever any manufacture brings out now, I will never ditch my MP10 as my main keybed.
But I only play at home, if I still gigged, that would be different.

Hallo Jürgen,
warum nicht beide?
Why don't use both instruments?
I would never sell my KRONOS but looking for a good Keyboard with 88 Keys...
Looking vor a MP6 or a Triton Extreme...

I also got rid of the Kronos because of that very same reason and some (many) more... The huge list of issues reported and those I personally had just didn't allowed me to enjoy playing. Now I'm considering returning to Kurzweil PC3 or the Yamaha Motif XF. I'm also considering the Roland Integra 7
