Not a stupid question at all... And yes, you can.

Hope this helps!

Many thanks Rich, especially for maintaining a presence on this forum. It's guys like you and Stephen Kay and all the other dialed-in contributors that's a big factor in my decision to purchase the K-88.

With regard to the VST wrapper, I do have the FXpansion VST to RTAS adapter product, and hopefully it handles the Kronos plugin; FXpansion hasn't updated their converter since 2006.

Ideally no RTAS support "at present" means a true native plugin is somewhere on the horizon.

Cheers -

Bill

Hi guys,

Also, I have to say, the HD-1 engine definitely isn't the weakest part of Kronos.
-Rich


We know that's the STR1 Rich, and HD1 is probably being the 2nd weakest out there Wink

Can we get an in depth demo of HD1 please? Quality of HD1 is really becoming a sensitive issue to a number of folks I know, myself included! If I hear you (all the demos so far are scratching the surface of HD1) and if the "surface" - i.e. carefully selected best part of the story for demonstration purpose is THAT bad, you know what's the perception out there in market market. If you prove 'out of the box' capability and competitiveness (please read it as being downright superior to all workstations and comparable to the VIs out there) of HD1, I am in the game, else I'm going to pass. Period.

Silly newb question but I don't know what a ribbon controller does? I do get the twiddle sticks though! Wink

Thanks for anyone filling me in?

The ribbon controller does different things, depending on the sound that you're playing. You just press it with your finger, and as you move it horizontally, it modifies the sound somehow.

It's often assigned to level or filter parameters, but you can assign it to dozens of different things.

On some Programs/Combis, SW2 (the second switch above the lower joystick) will memorize your finger's position on the ribbon, so you can free up your left hand.

Oh! Now that is a very cool feature! I remember someone telling me you could never have to many controls for a synth, seems you guys have a similar philosophy. I'm very new but I think I agree.

In addition, you can assign the ribbon to control KARMA such that sweeping the ribbon causes glissandos of notes, or strums of a guitar.

Hello Rich -

Have you (or anyone else) successfully used a VST wrapper for the Kronos editor? As far as I know, FXpansion is the only one out there, and I just tried it, and it wraps, but does not function in Pro Tools.
