Okay, this is a 3 part tutorial, mostly because I'm doing two independent sounds and wanted to incorporate what I was thinking for the entire thing.

Here are the videos:

part 1:

Part 2:

Part 3:

And the final sounds:

So here are the details:
EE-000 and EE-001 are the sounds.
Combi - U-E000 is the Combi that includes both sounds for a performance version.

Please let me know your feedback. I'm definitely down for learning to be better!

Man, you're prolific! Smile

I'm going to have to download these to take a look, as they are quite long and our broadband in this dark corner of Wales is not up to streaming Sad

Thanks, as ever, for sharing.

This is just fantastic!

Your attention to detail on the choppy part is staggering! The finished results on both are amazing.

Thanks so much.

I have so many sounds I would love you to recreate but will try and reign myself in a bit! Your videos are really inspiring me to try and do more myself as well.
Best wishes
Steve

Thanks for all of these tutorials, very informative and a very good explanation on how to get started when you need a specific sound.

Here's a question about something I'm unaware of the Kronos being able do or not: The background sound (the pulsing sound) was played by holding the chord down, and the hi-hat from the LinnDrum was sent to a CV out, and connected to the Arp Quadra's CV in. That way the tempo was locked to the Linndrum's tempo, and didn't require the Tony to physically play the ostinato.

Is it possible to do that in the Kronos without using a sequencer to pulse the chord? Let something like the tempo of a part control another part?

Thanks,

..Joe

Hey enigmahack!

You did a very nice job on these tough sounds. I'm very impressed, how close you came to the intro lead sound. To me, it just needs some heavy delay/reverb and maybe a bit of chorus to be perfect.
To me, the choppy sound is still a bit to harsh on the top end. What about some cutoff/resonance tweaking and room reverb/early reflection? The original sound always reminds me of Korg's old "Hard Tine" E-Piano sounds of the 01W series. Maybe there's a HD-1 waveform of it in the Kronos which could bring in some cooler, digital touch. Couldn't we use a Karma pattern for the 16th repetitions?
Thank you for your great work so far!
