kronos 2 how to upgrade to operating system 3,03

Post by eddie crespo »

Dear members.
Finally my kronos 73 (x or 2?) arrived a week ago, I bought it used in our local Japanese Yahoo Auction. The sideboards are made of wood so it must be a 2 model. Since I bought it used, only the recovery CD and Quick Start Guide
was in the box. I saw in our Forum that a new OS is available and are being adviced to upgrade to the latest OS. Since I'm just beginning to discover which is the front and the rear of this keyboard, I would appreciate it very much if you gentlemen could give me instructions from start to finish on how it is done.
My current OS shown on the LCD is 3.02.
Ang also may I ask if there is a "Kronos for Dummies" available that you know of, the learning curve, specially the Karma is as stiff as Mt. Everest. It's kinda hard to stop once you hear the sound of this keyboard, Again thank you so much for any help, and a good day to you all

There are a lot of YouTube videos on the Kronos. Also, the Operations Guide is a good place to start.
