Tremolo effect on strings

Hello friends. I am trying to figure out how to program my JS to have X for adding tremolo effect to the strings program. But could not figure out yet. Any ideas how to do it?

As much as the wood end caps seem like nostalgia for days of analog, i can't help but recall seeing pictures of busted up Kronos with the gapping hole particularly in the end caps. Exposing the view of the insides. Maybe a side effect of habits of standing keyboards up on their end plates and ...

Re: Korg Kronos OR Yamaha Montage 8?

G wrote:Anyone in, or was in, the same boat?

Trying to decide between the Kronos and the Montage 8.

I will be using it mainly for the grand piano sounds 70% of the time - the other sounds 30% of the time.
I would go for a Nord Stage 3 88 keys, if piano sounds are important.

One thing to keep in mind is that the Kronos today is, from the users perspective, the same machine it was in 2011. As Greg pointed out, the main difference is the size of the SSD and the RAM being maxed out. Cosmetically, the body changed slightly with the model 2, gaining the wood sides. I ...

Actually I am a live player. So, at the gig everything has to go through a mixer.

PS- from the manual for your pedal: •For low-impedance gear like synthesizers and stompboxes (I haven't seen too many stompboxes that are balanced) Connectors: •Input 1, 2 jacks: 1/4-inch phone type •Output 1, 2 jacks: 1/4-inch phone type I think if they were TRS it would say so. its the jack issue ...

Spring for a Boss FV500 with the expression connector. Will work with anything. My Kronos, Stage 2, SY77... I have three and they're very well made. The pot that works the minimum setting is great for organ. I have two L versions and one H. So, doesn't matter as they don't work in-line but as MIDI ...

The Yamaha FC-7 is a reliable choice. Also the Behringer FCV. Looks a bit like the FC-7 and is a bit more solid. Has jacks instead of a hard wired cable and doesn't need any external power (you do need a battery in it if using it as an audio volume pedal). And they are only $29 (US)! Thank you so ...

I doubt it's impedance mismatch issue, had it been high impedance that would have mattered , and would have affected tone bigtime. These pedals mostly are simple voltage dividers (passive variable resistors I.e potentiometers). This definitely is a problem either with the cables or the pedal unit ...

Since the pedal is a low impedance output it would need to go into a low impedance input (XLR or TRS) on the mixer. Which Behringer do you have? What type of cables do you use at all points in the chain? TS or TRS? And what kind of amp are you using? And sorry, but I have to ask- you are going ...

An expression pedal connected to the back of the Kronos at the pedal jack should not be eating up any volume. It is not part of the audio chain. It just supplies CCs to tell the Kronos how loud something should be. It also allows you to do some nifty tricks once you get the hang of it. I use one ...

I tried that in the past but had issues with the volume. the pedal seemed to be eating up some volume.

Has someone used a KORG XVP 20 with a mixer?

Yes, that works perfectly fine. I have a Behringer mixer and also I tried it at a gig with a bigger mixer where I came to know about this problem.
