for USB powered and aftertouch I would say Akai MPK88 but it does weigh in at 64lbs.. Myself I use my Yamaha MM8 as I couldn't let it go when i got the Kronos as I liked it's action better than any other 88 I had tried, only con is no aftertouch (i don't use AT anyway). It's only 34lbs which I think ...

Intels are good.. over the last 18 months through work I have fitted a lot of SSD's, at first we used OCZ's but all bar one have failed within 6 months. although this was in the early stages (vertex 2/3's) and was only 6 drives but was enough for us to switch to using Intel and Cruicial M4's and ...

I'll check it, is there an easy way of seeing the velocity.. I was certainly mashing it as hard as I dare with out breaking the thing (and way harder than anything I have ever actually played) the render may seem lower as the rec level direct from the Kronos USB to Reaper was @ 60-70% as I didn't ...

Just tried it on my K61 couldn't get any distortion on that A#, this is the render from Reaper for comparison, I noticed the right channel with the patch is about 5% higher so maybe you're just hitting an output limit on your monitors/mixer. http://www.digitalphotos.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/Misc ...

IMHO my Kurz PC3 was way above the Kronos in the strings/Orch department but after getting the JP80 and layering it's "Pastorale" + "Orch str/hrns" I ebayed the PC3.. :shock:

Wow.. as I said on the YT comments I can only assume the dislike on the Korg one was a mistake...

In the Nord video you make it look so easy, but I know it's not!

:D I use my Kronos, JP80 and Omnisphere all at the same time with Reaper, using ASIO4ALL (11ms Latency on VIA onboard) until I get a proper ASIO capable card. The beauty of reaper I find is the ability to add any existing track as a "Receive" to an audio track allowing you to easily convert midi to ...

I absolutely love Reaper http://www.reaper.fm/ It runs in 64bit and handles a multiple channel/tracks and devices seamlessly, I have the Kronos, JP80 and Omnisphere all mapped through it. Prior to it I had used FL Studio 10 and Reason 4 but once I tried Reaper (you can use it fully and indefinitely ...

I agree they cannot be compared on a VS basis and do make a killer combo.

All I will say is, if the bailiffs knocked on my door tomorrow and demanded I hand ONE of them back I would give them the Kronos as I really couldn't part with the JP80 and I would carry on using Reaper as my sequencer.
