|
|
Hi everyone,
I have a Kronos 2 LS currently at 3.1.2 version and I want to update it to System 3.1.4. The instructions for the System update are clear, but there is also a Sub-System update on the Korg Download pages, and I don't know how to handle both updates together.
In fact, what is the difference between the two updates? And how should I proceed for both of them?
Thanks in advance!

Hi there,
The so-called "sub-system" is a firmware update. Start with this one and then proceed with the 3.1.4 update. Instructions come with both updates and are easy to follow. |

Maybe just one thing before I proceed with both updates. Since I am not sure what the previous owner did, I am thinking of reloading the original programs and combis, just to make sure they were not modified.
There is one program that seems strange to me. It is the Styx Babe program. There is a split with a tremolo Rhodes on the lower part and a synth on the upper. The split point is too low to allow to play the intro on the Rhodes. And the synth volume is too high.
Was the original Babe program this way? Or was it modified (badly) by the previous owner?
And is the 3.1.4 update changing the programs and combis?
Thanks again!

Hello,
The program you mention is not in the factory list, so either custom made or from an additional library.
The OS and firmware can be done before or after the programs/combis restore, it doesn't matter. To restore the original programs/combis, simply load the factory PCG file that comes with the Kronos 2 (not the older one for earlier models). If you edited programs and combis, make sure to do a complete backup before loading the factory PCG so you don't lose your stuff. |
