I'm considering getting a used Kronos. I keep hearing about how long it takes to boot up. Does it have a "standby" mode, where I can walk away for a couple of hours, then come back & get right to work? Or would it just stay fully powered up for the time I'm away? It has no standby mode. When it's ...

I've only had the Kronos for 8 years, and I love it. Hope the Kronos 2-> Kronos 3 library upgrade this summer will give it some new life to this amazing instrument. But if it were to die, I think I'd choose the Montage if only for its plug-in incarnation.

Perhaps the code is no longer maintainable? No codebase that old is ever maintainable. Agree, that lapse of time means a significant part of the original team is now retired. It's obvious Korg keeps the capability of doing or contracting surgical changes like the necessary adaptations to the new ...

It is inspired by the greek god Cronus, Cronos or Kronos that was assimilated by the Roman mythology. As Wikipedia states: His association with the "Saturnian" Golden Age eventually caused him to become the god of "time" So it's clear, to the erudite connoisseur, that the Korg marketing trailblazers ...

Here is a link from a few days ago with all the new songs… Are these the updated 2025 versions ?? Seems like it... it says Kronos 3 - should be the same songs (different order) as what's here on SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/korg/sets/caddaadb-9e6a-433d-8004-65584f96f0ff Not to derail the t ...

I use Komplete 12 Ultimate, it's a very comprehensive software package. Native Instruments seem to concentrate a lot on sample libraries for Kontakt these days. I also have Komplete Ultimate that I slowly upgraded from version 8 I think on several Summer Offers. I think they are good sample ...

It's called "Fantom"

https://www.korg.com/us/products/synthesizers/kronos3/ First, congrats to the teams on the new release!!! As a Korg fan, I am underwhelmed. As a technologist, I cannot but admire Korg's product engineering effort since the launch of the original OASYS platform. But as a musician I love the ...

The rumor is out now: https://sandsoftwaresound.net/namm-2025-korg-new-kronos/ This blog by Paul J. Drongowski is not exactly a clickbait oriented news site, and the author is all about Yamaha synth internals, he has to have some industry knowledge. Not sure if this is going to be true and not much ...

Thanks Sharp for this Christmas gift!

But probably more appealing is "Korg Collection 5" ($299) which includes all 3, plus numerous other emulations, including Triton, M1, Wavestation, If working with VSTs is a possibility, I think the best option is the full Korg Collection set, as it includes not only the MS20 and Polysix, but also ...

I have an Apollo Solo and I tried it the old fashioned way of audio out from the Kronos into the Apollo and into Protools. It's somewhat of a disaster as the audio out this way doesn't sound the same as it does originally in the Kronos. Things don't seem to stay where I sat them in the Kronos mix ...

So when I compare the Nautilus to the M3, I consider the Nautilus to be a flagship workstation as much as the M3 was. (...) I'm also saying it in contrast to those who have compared it to the M50. It's not a just a budget-workstation. The M50 is much further away of the M3 than the Nautilus is of ...

Anyone using a similar setup can shine some light in on this? Is there something I need to do to my Kronos to get the output sound under control? Apollos are amazing, but they are basically unnecessary to record the Kronos into a computer. The easiest way is using just the USB audio inteface ...
