I use the Japanese Grand a lot but not with a band so not sure how it blends or sounds through loud speakers that way. It sounds really good with choirs and occasional instrumental duets . _________________ Sam

Berlin Grand is my favorite so far in band context and mixes, followed by the German Grand for solo play. _________________ Kronos 73 - Moog Voyager RME - Moog LP TE - Behringer Model D - Prophet 6 - Roland Jupiter Xm - Rhodes Stage 73 Mk I - Elektron Analog Rytm MkII - Roland TR-6s - Cubase 12 Pro + Groove Agent 5 |

This is so personal I'd say. But for me I use:
Jazz, Berlin and German. Latin and Rock usually the Japanese or Jordan Rudness.
I will tweak them depending on the room as well. Some have mentioned tweaking and writing their own. The beauty of KRONOS is that you can do that to your liking. |

When gigging, I use various versions the German Grand about 80% of the time and the Japanese Grand about 20% of the time. I have made edits to the parameters and the FX to compliment my playing style and the song I am playing. I only use the Berlin Grand when I am playing piano only. I can't seem to get the edits to it that work for me on the German and Japanese grands. But, as said thousands of times on this forum, the piano sound is a personal taste thing. They are all good. _________________ JP

I know that the Berlin Grand is included in the newer Kronos before the SE.
I wonder if the Berlin along with the Italian are included with the SE? |

I have seen the Extra Voice Name List [Programs] list for the Italian on the SE but not the complete Program/combi list.
I am 99% sure that Korg included all instruments/programs etc from the 2015 Kronos, in addition to the Italian and KaPro EXs on the SE. _________________ Kronos 88. MODX8

I love the Berlin Grand personally. With the way this sounds, I really feel like this is truly one of the best keyboard workstations available.
