Very interesting. I have never used the audio ins on Kronos and I had no idea that you can trigger a patch with an audio input?

With this example, a foot switch may come in handy for changing scenes. Also if you go to the Karma tab and select the Scenes sub tab you can change the scene quantization to one bar which may make it easier being you are playing at the same time. Thanks for posting.

Thanks for the tip! That would be helpful indeed.

That's cool stuff. I liked it way better, when you turned the guitar all the way down. I could see how this could be used as a special effect type of sound. Maybe not so much for Melodic phrases...

Slick!! First thing that came to my mind though, is hopefully Robert Fripp will never get hold of a Kronos! Weirdness could have a whole new meaning... :D

Not at all! Actually, i like your guitar playing very much so. It's just the Karma effect totally overpowered the direct Guitar signal and the result was too random sounding to be used in a musical content successfully. Sometimes, that's actually a good thing for a certain application. In any case, I liked what I heard.

While I was there (YouTube), I took a look at your nylon guitar effects demo with the Kronos also. Very cool! That's a great idea and very useful demonstration. Thanks.

Sadly he's a Scientologist too unless he's changed.
