Korg Forums

korg just did a poor job on the kronos. from day one there were problems. noisy fan, bouncing keys, double triggers, the thing makes noise when you play, space between keys i need to install 1GB ram myself, it took wayyy too long before the vst was released, velocity problems etc etc etc. i think ...

To all the people who are still in denial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E13XA6lYR38 curve 4 even my kawai k1 has better expression en larger velocity range. to all the people who are claiming that you don't need to reach 127, that's total BS. maybe if you're playing mozart or bach on a pianopatch ...

Starting to hate my kronos. Spent more than 3k, after more than a year, still not able to use it. Cannot reach anybody from korg, store wont take it back, korg distributor doesnt cooperate. I am f***ed. Big time. Sorry i am done with being polite and s**t. Hate korg. Last time i ever buy s**t from ...

I took my Kronos 88 to the service center and the tech was able to hit the keys hard enough to reach 127 so Korg says there is nothing to fix. So, I would suggest that anyone who takes their Kronos in to the service center because of the velocity issue to use caution. Unless there is something to ...

good luck for you.. seems that i have to wait for another extra 3-4 months or so, since the korg tech holland is on vacation Wow, that seems to be a good company to work for, i have 24 days vacation max for a whole year! I hope things works out quickly for you, 4 months wait time for a calibration ...

More and more cases of the velocity issue are starting tot pop the surface on this forum.. Also in other topics.. Seems to be a design flaw after all just like the double trigger problemm...

Record your playing on the Sequencer Use the command Event Edit for the track you used to record. Just record an 8 bar (or whatever) pass with one of the piano presets. Begin by playing softly and then progress to the hardest you would ever normally play. Then you can go into the MIDI edit section ...

The fact I just can't understand is why this can't be easily fixed with a software update. The velocity curves, after all, define a mapping of the velocity detected on the keybed. Even the 1.5.2 OS added a special hidden parameter to "adjust" the feel of the fixed keybed. So this one is surely ...

I have a new 88 here which us meant to have the new keybed, I can get to 110 with normal playing. 118 if I really smash a key so hard you would not want to do it that often! So not full range :( Thank you for testing it! according to dan, your kronos is defect and should be recalibrated by a korg ...

congratulations on your new kronos!

Can you please check if you can reach velocity 127 in curve 4 and curve 9?

alot of kronos keyboards have the velocityproblem.

I'm just wondering if yours has it or not.

Thank you in advance

I don't think they will be able to make any appreciable changes as I think it is a design flaw rather than something an adjustment will fix. I took it in with the hope that I'm wrong but when korg is slow in responding to a tech center one has to wonder if this is just going to be more denial like ...

Dan, I really appreciate your efforts in this matter. This issue makes it difficult to use the Kronos 88 as a controller to sequence parts using other synths, modules, VI's, as well as the "brick wall" effect, etc. If it's a problem that can be corrected that will please everyone facing this issue ...

BobTheDog, can you please test if you can reach velocity 127 with velocitycurve 4?

we're goping off topic now... back on the subject: paid €3400 for a keyboard, had to wait more than 8 months for a keybedreplacement, and now unable to reach 120-127 ***This is in my opinion totally unacceptable and absurd and akward*** apparently there are more people who have these problem.. i am a ...
