|
|
Hi Guys, Im new to the forum. I have Kronos 61 1st edition running on v3.13 with a couple potential software issues? Any help would be appreciated.
1) I have two adjacent combi slots for a song in setlist.
When I change from the first slot to the second slot the sounds in the first slot continue in the background (based on the last chord I played before changing). The sounds in the second slot play over this. I have to come out of the second slot to cancel the background chord. This used to work well and is a recent problem.
2) The page freezes when editing midi channels or key zones in combi. I can "unfreeze this" f I change to another combi and then go back to the one I'm editing and as long as I immediately carry out the midi or zone change it works.
Again this used to work okay and is a relatively new issue.. |

Welcome to the forum.
Issue 1 is normal, and is actually a highly desired feature called Seamless Sound Transition. To me it seems like your workaround is simple. From slot 1, go to unused slot X first, then to the actual slot 2 you want. Switching through 2 consecutive slots or combis or programs, whatever, is how the Kronos cuts off lingering notes.
Issue 2 does seem unusual. Are you changing those parameters while sounds are playing? Maybe you have a MIDI loop (if connected to a DAW, make sure to set Kronos MIDI local control to off). |

In both cases, try hitting the Compare button as it can function like a panic button under those circumstances. |

Hi King Kronos, thanks for the quick reply.
Apologies for not making the setlist issue clearer.
When changing to slot 2 the chord from slot 1 will not stop and continues to play under what I'm playing using slot 2 unless I go to another slot to cut it off.
Could this be a polyphony issue? |

When you change from slot 1 to slot 2, the sound from slot 1 keeps playing. This is normal, and called smooth sound transition.
To work around that, go from slot 1 to slot 10 then slot 2. This will cutoff slot 1. |

Hi King Kronos,
Thanks for your response.
I understand smooth sound transition and have being using this successfully for some time. What I am experiencing is the sound from slot 1 hanging throughout me playing slot 2 and continuing when I stop playing the slot 2 part.
I have just submitted a video of this to Korg technical support who are looking into this for me.
Many thanks |

Hi Guys,
I think I’ve sorted the first problem! (which I suspect is a bug).
When I hold the chord in slot one with the damper - which I’ve not been using over the last year- it transitions to slot 2 as expected.
When I play the chord in slot one it hangs when activating slot 2.
I should mention that the chord is assigned to a pad, although its transitioned okay between setlist slots when playing the chord in the past.
However, since I recently updated to 3.13 I seem to have had this problem. |

You’ve tried unplugging your damper pedal, no doubt? And verifying that the damper polarity is correct? |

Yes using the damper has solved the first problem of hanging chords when changing from slot one to slot 2 in setlist |
