Thanks so much for the quick and helpful reply. I’ll play with that tonight and see if I can make it work.

Using Kronos2 solely as Logic/Spitfire Audio controller

I would like to use my Kronos2 only as a MIDI controller at times. I am using Logic Pro X and orchestral samples from Spitfire Audio. I am particularly needing to use the faders - two at a time for controlling instrument articulations. I will buy separate faders if I need to, but was thinking the ...

Yes, I have no problem getting midi into Logic. I've got that all figured out. And since then, I actually have Logic playing back different sounds from the Kronos on different midi channels. What is interesting is that Logic accepts Kronos input when in Program mode, but not in Sequencer mode. I ...

Correct - I don't need an adapter since the Focusrite has Midi In/Out. I had to order long enough midi cables, so I'll be able to test it out tomorrow, hopefully. I think this is what I'm looking for.

Thanks much!

Accessing Kronos midi tracks from Logic Pro X midi tracks

I've researched this for the last three hours and cam come up with nothing. I simply want to have Midi tracks in Logic that match the Sequencer tracks in the Kronos2. When I select that track in Logic, I want it to play that sound when I play the Kronos2. I have the sequencer set up to 8 different ...

OK. Thank you. That helps. I didn't even consider the audio interface. I just got a Focusrite 18i8 and, sure enough, it has midi ports. So, I'm assuming I would bypass Mac's Audio Midi Setup for the Fantom (but, still using it for the Kronos) and Logic should be able to see the Fantom through the ...

Use Kronos to link Roland to Mac?

One of the reasons I bought the Kronos was because Roland abandoned drivers for the new Mac OSes. So, I have a Roland Fantom 8 that I want to still use, but since I cannot connect to the Mac anymore, can I Midi it to the Kronos and still use Logic, Sibelius, etc. with it? Can anyone give me some ...

Well, here seems to be the end of the saga... In answer to a preview question, this happened on the programs that Kronos2 came with, including Berlin. I hadn't loaded anything else onto the Kronos2, except for reformatting and restoring from the DVDs. It did force me to go online and do something ...

I haven't tried every one of them, but took a sampling out of them. I play a key repeatedly and I timed it. It plays for 10 seconds, then it fades out to nothing, then back up for a period of 4 seconds, then plays 10 seconds, etc. It is a clear fade, not an immediate dropoff. If I restart the ...

I called Zzounds and they were very responsive. I finally received a response back from Korg and they said to contact Zzounds. After about four hours of researching, as well as restarting constantly hoping for a lucky break, I actually tried reseating the ram, disconnecting the hard drive cable and ...

Yes, it was factory sealed and I bought it from Zzounds.com. I feel confident they are a reputable dealer. There is no Korg dealer in my town or I would have bought locally, even at a higher price. I did call Customer Service and they said there is no tech support, except through email. I got to ...

New Kronos died after 3 minutes - tech support 2-3 days?!!

I have been a Yamaha user, collecting 7 of their keyboards in the last 10 years. This is my first effort at Korg and I went with the Kronos. It's not looking like a very wise move at the moment. I got it in today, then turned it on and loaded the demo song. The demo played impressively, then it ...
