Problem solved. I recently saw a little insignificant piece of plastic in my case, turns out it was a retaining pin on the heat sink for the processor on the motherboard. Popped in a nylon screw and nut I had on hand. Really? Korg… people… REALLY??? Can you explain this a bit more? I am suddenly hav ...

During a recent service of my 2011 Kronos, I decided to replace the fan as the factory unit was becoming progressively noisier. (Incidentally, the stock fan is rated for around 30,000 hours of use). Like a few others, I tried the Noctua NF-A6X25 FLX as it was readily available in my region and ...

Well, just my Kronos LS88 back from the shop with a brand new keybed! However, now I have around 24 keys that make a lovely clacking sound when released! Won't be an issue playing in the band, but in the studio, it's not cool! Anyone have any experience with this or a solution? I will call the shop ...

I have a Kronos, not a Nautilus, so I can’t look at that exact patch, but the architecture of the synths is mostly identical. The SGX-2 engine is one of the EXi engines, and you can have a 1 or 2 EXi instances within a single program (and these can either be the same engine or two different engines w ...

What others have said here about the architectural differences is absolutely correct. It actually would be much easier to replicate original Wavestation sounds on a Kronos or Nautilus (and I think some of this has been done if you search around). However, I do think it would be very possible for a ...

Have you watched this video? Might be of help!

Yes, the foot pedal will do the same thing in Program mode and Combi mode (unless you disable it via MIDI filter). So you’ll need to assign it to modulate something in each program you want it to affect.

Was worth a shot but still not it. With the tempo on external it is always looking for tempo from something else and that is expected. With the Auto, it only uses the tempo when it is coming in. It does not remember the tempo it received. If the clock stops it goes back to whatever random tempo ...

It you have your pedal set to cc 04 in Global, then you just need to select it as an AMS source of the parameters you want to control for individual programs.

Can you expand on what you mean a bit more? KARMA should be generating note and control data that is recorded by the sequencer.

They are, indeed, real wood! I had to replace one of them on my LS88, and I was able to source it by contacting https://instrumentalparts.com/ via their email address. It was a special order and took a couple months to arrive, but I got it and it was perfect. You may want to try https://www ...

I could be wrong, but I think it is “hard-wired” to be on in Program mode. The MIDI Filter only exists in Combi mode, as far as I know.

This may not be possible for you or a perfect solution, but if you can have anything transmitting a tempo via MIDI, then that will override the performance’s tempo (assuming you have clock source set to External or Auto).

The direct links to the individual product pages are still active, but they have been moved to the “Product Archive” section. I suspect they are just quietly moving them out of production (or have likely already done so).

I suppose they mean any future synths in the OASYS/Kronos/Nautilus family. Perhaps an unintentional tease of a Kronos successor yet to come?
