Muy buen día y cordial saludo. Primeramente Le felicito por tan buen video y segundo, aprovecho la oportunidad para hacerle tres preguntas muy puntuales en cuanto a sobre cual teclado es más sobresaliente entre el YAMAHA PSR-SX900 y el KORG PA-1000. Es para una decisión de compra. 1) Cuál es mejor en cuanto a calidad de construcción, sensación del teclado, duración de las perillas y la botonera. 2) Cuál reproduce los sonidos con más realismo. 3) Cuál es más fácil de utilizar. Gracias por sus respuestas.
That's not quite the point of wave sequences. A wave sequence happens at the HD-1 waveform level. It changes the underlying waveform in a specific manner. Once you've edited a wave sequence, it becomes a waveform for all intents. The effects that you're asking for happen at the program level (IFX/MFX/TFX) and aren't a function of the wave sequence itself. Definitely not useless, but it probably doesn't work how you want it to. Depending on what you're trying to do, there's likely a way though.
Dave, fantasic video. I freshly bought me a Nautilus, the Kronos sounds do fit ! But I have two questions: How do you change from one combi to the next one ? Did you assign a foot switch to step the combis up ? And the other one regards the pads. How did you assign the chords to the pads ? I have also the nanopad but Nautilus dos not support virtual pads (grrrrr). Did you configure the chords into your nanopad via an editor?
Hey! Congrats on the Nautilus, it's a great machine. Funny enough, any sounds that use the engines that aren't the HD1 engine are compatible, but if you have a sound that's programmed in the HD1 engine, they will work... But: the sounds are offset. Like... In the Kronos, the saw sound might be on 1541 but I'm the Nautilus it's 1885. So Kronos sounds CAN work but the HD1 stuff needs adapting. About the sound switching: Go to Global mode and look for the Foot switch, you want to set it to Program Increment or similar. It will allow you to step forward through the sounds in program, combi, or setlist mode. The pads are a touch more complicated... The Nautilus is missing some of the functions of the Kronos. Karma, for example, doesn't work the same. (Stephen Kay, the genius behind Karma, is no longer supporting it. I don't think it's licensed by Korg anymore so they had to drop it and fall back to something else.) Some other functions are also missing, but I didn't realize the pad support is gone! In the Kronos, there's a dedicated page just to the pads (a legacy function of the Korg Oasys) so you just plug in the Nanopad and it works. My friend has an Nautilus, so I'll have to ask him about that and see if there's a workaround. Let me know if you have questions, I'll help however I can! (audoraaudio@gmail.com to get me directly)
@@AudoraAudio Thank you Dave for the swift response, really appreciated. I purchased the Africa sound from your website and digged into your sound setup and it is really amazing, you even setup a timbre for single notes to get that flute, bell whatever sound. I would have never figured out this. But it sounds really like the Africa sound ! Regarding the pads: I read all the forum entries but I think there is no way to get around easily. The way I will follow up now are the RPPR patterns. The downside is that they work in a sequencer mode only. But in a sequencer mode you cannot use a footswitch to change the song. puh !
I know this old vid but very helpful. Ibm start with a band this weekend that does this song. I was only using a saw synth. Had no idea all this was going on 😂. Back to the drawing board. I am using a CK88. Thx
Having owned the KRONOS2-88 for four plus years now, I've discovered the German grand hidden in the samples, but not listed in any of the programs and I made a new preset based on that. The Berlin grand sounds okay, but has a lack of character, sounding more like my daughter's piano teacher's 1939 Baldwin grand. G#4 sounds like the felts are too dampened. By contrast, the German grand I found and put on my preload has that classic Steinway bell-like clarity and articulate sound. It is by far, my favorite piano of all the instruments I own.
I know this is kind of an old video. But can you tell me if the korg kronos 2 also includes the German Grand that you mentioned is included on Kronos 1st Gen; and does it sound the same as in the original Kronos?
I'm still around, but life has taken a turn and I haven't been able to do videos as much as I used to. The desire is still there and I may get back to it someday!
Hi there, Not as often anymore, but that doesn't mean I have stopped. Email me if you're interested, perhaps we can set something up! audoraaudio@gmail.com
Every moron that demonstrates any keyboard from Korg , Yamaha , Roland , all they focus on all the time are piano sounds . . honestly I will never use piano sounds just because of this reason . I mean what do the flutes sound like , or guitars or saxophone or violin and viola , strings . Don't these sounds exist on these keyboards ! What the hell . . . . .
Regarding the keybed difference, when I owned that 73, I didn't gel with the weighted keys action and sold it to you. However, many years later I got an 88 X and the keybed action was much better. I think I read somewhere that this was common (the retrig effect) in the first generation and KORG addressed this in the 2nd generation (X)
Dave, I'm looking for one particular 80's song sound. "You Should Hear How She Talks About You." Not the guitar sounding part. I'll play that on guitar with a lot of chorus. The synth part. I'm currently using a sound from "Bette Davis Eyes" that doesn't sound quite right. Any ideas?
Thanks so much for this tutorial. I have a Roland Juno DS - and can't find any patch that has the harmonic built in (for the solo). Is there a plug-in I can buy?
I like all the videos. I just would like you to play and explain the songs: DREAMS By Van Halen and ALIVE & KICKING By Simple Minds. I´d love to learn those. Thank you very much
You can press the compare button! It's almost like a panic button and it should stop the sample from playing. Just remember to hit it a second time to put yourself back in the edit mode.
This is a fantastic tutorial. I was kind of dreading having to transcribe this. My elementary school chorus is going to do this song and my kids are going to cover all the parts. It’s going to be awesome.
I learned this by ear ages ago but only recently started introducing the bassline on the left hand, it will be complicated to nail the timing at first but once you learn it's much more satisfying to play.
Great video! but one question: I don't understand how the kronos is automatically changing the sounds...how does it "know" when to change the sound? you said "while you are holding this you can switch to the next sound"..but I really don't understand how you did it... I appreciate your answer since I am new in keyboards and I am thinking of buying myself a Kronos because I want to play 80's synth pop. Thank you!
I have a foot pedal that I press to go to the next sound in line! It's assigned to increment whatever mode you're in so I don't need to take my hands off of the keyboard to go to the next patch!
These are by far the best videos about the Kronos and how to program it out there! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge about this complex Instrument
It doesn't - it's a .NET Windows application. You would need to either use Parallels or run a virtual machine with Windows in it to get this to run on a Mac!
this is great.. but it really would have been nice to go a LOT slower on that 2nd half part, one hand at a time, note for note with a click to see where it all lines up through the whole thing.. You Tube needs a 1./2 speed function :)
The sounds on your keyboard are bomb. My only comment is it'd be nice to here everything in.context from start to finish. I don't have the capability to download a ton of sounds between now and 2 days from now (which is when I have to play this song). Any suggestions on a "work around" (for lack of a better term)
