Stylus for the Kronos touchscreen...
thanks in advance....I notice in many of the video tutorials, they use a stylus pen.
Problem is, I have never used one before with either my IPhone, or my Pad, so I am not familiar with them and wonder if there are a specific type that you need to work properly with the Kronos screen?

A simple $4 stylus at your local office store will get the job done. Nothing fancy is needed.

I got these and they are working great for me:

I use an iPad screen protector film on my K, and I poke and scratch and tap and drag everything on screen without the fear of damaging.

I bought these - they are absolutely perfect for the Kronos.
Hard pointy tip on one end, and a soft, round tip on the other end. The white one is perfect b/c you can find it easily when you put it down on the Kronos.

This is what I'm using too. Apple did a nice job with getting the weight and balance right. Feels very nice, and super precise on the K's screen. But yeah, surely not worth the cost to use only as a Kronos stylus.fomalhaut wrote:Not that I would buy it just for using it with the Kronos, but the Apple Pencil is comfortable to use on the Kronos screen. Plus, being white is easy to find over the panel (I usually put it just above the controller knobs).
I just got done applying a screen protector film on mine too. For not a lot of money, why not. I don't notice anything different.Rigel wrote:I use an iPad screen protector film on my K, and I poke and scratch and tap and drag everything on screen without the fear of damaging.
