I really love these EP-1 effects and look forward to use them with other programs.

Even the Vox-Wah effect (useable with an expression pedal) sounds really similar to my hardware Vox-Wah: I once checked them side by side.

For me the main "wow" is that you can now use two or three together or set them up with RT knobs to have a few different ones at hand. Still not as easy as the Nord approach but very nice to have "one" Rhodes sound and have most vintage fx ready to dial in.

Here's my best guess on the included pedal emulation in EP-1, now available globally (in order):

- Electro Harmonix Small Stone Phaser (Small Phase)
- MXR Phase 90 (Orange Phase)
- ??? (Black Phase)
- Roland CE-1 Chorus (Vintage Chorus)
- t.c. electronic Stereo Chorus+ (Black Chorus)
- Dyno My Piano Built it Chorus (EP Chorus)
- MXR Flanger (Vintage Flanger)
- MXR Dyna Comp (Red Comp)
- Vox Wah [847 / 848] (Vox Wah)

Simply going by color, name and function I always thought it might be a Xotic BB Preamp.
Not sure how vintage or classic that is though.
(I mean your question mark one)

I edited my previous post to include the Korg names. I was looking for Black Phase.

The CX-3 amp sim should additionally warm things up a little as well!

Oh oops I meant the preamp one. I must be mixing something up, I'm not at my Kronos.

I read a new voice list (for new Kronos) and it is completely changed from the old one. Will it be possible, for the old user (Kronos and Kronos X), to download new preloaded set (for new Kronos)?

Yes

Yes

The new voice list starts with 2 brand new program banks. The other banks are offset by two banks after that. The first program bank is Exi and includes presets that require the new Berlin Piano which will have to be purchased separately. The second bank is HD1 and the first 15 presets require EXs18; again a separate purchase. It appears that the Karo set EXs19 does not have any presets so that will most likely be an add on bank.

There is also 6 new Karma combinations added.

Thanks to vladsu and pattbuzz for replay. I noticed (when I compare voice list for old one and new Kronos), that the second bank of presets (Bank Init-B HD1) is completely different (not only first 15. presets). Did they only change a names from 16-127 or it's a new presets? Thanks for your attention.

The first two banks are all new. The Bank that was Int-A starts at Int-C.

Thanks for this suggestions. I compared more and that it is complete mess up with banks. Old USER-B[EXi] became INIT-D[EXi] too and .....Old conbi will not work with new program arrange, without serious manual manipulation.

it would be good if someone manages to produces a complete Program/Combi PCG based on the new OS3 programs, but mapped as in OS2. Like that we can use our existing combis and setlists.

With PCGtools we can do this, while moving the new programs to different slots (where they were in OS2).

Maybe Korg will/could provide this (Dan?), and is maybe already planning/including it. I am ready to give it a shot as well once OS3 is available and provide it to the Forum.
