I hope you visit KORG first and let us know if anything new with regards to KRONOS before anybody else does!
Have a safe and fun trip!

I am getting live feed from NAMM 2018. Roland.
And even see youtube for many other brand names.

Nothing about Korg even being there...Yet...?

Am i being impatient or mistaken?

It's all about Prologue. There isn't a Kronos in sight in their display
Prologue is cool for knob tweakers. I prefer the workstation format.
Also tried the Vox Continental. It was a decent organ clone, but not too wowed with the whirly or Rhodes sounds. Kronos spoils me.

Thank you for the report !!!

This means I will be heading to purchase the current version of Kronos and be happy with it for a looooong time!

The Prologue will probably be the next synth engine in a future Kronos ? Next year I think you can bank on something to replace the Kronos . I was hoping for an update OS.

That could be, I certainly wouldn't mind more engines

How dependent is the Prologue on its knobs? You'd lose out a bit on the fun without all of those, wouldn't you?

And there is also the question of how close the modelling of the analog circuitry can be done? Are there any opinions on the original Polysix and MS-20 compared to the versions in the Kronos?
