yes, but why do you want to be able to do this?
Even with RPPR or ARP you have to foward a click or something to the drummer...we tried it without, and failed.
So we use the sequencer now, to be able to give the drummer a click.
And of course, this has the advantage to fill some other things in, like the Vocoder "Radio" etc.
By the way: I think he is not programming the Kronos on his own, he just play it. As far as I remember, he had a female technican to do the programming...so he will not know, where it comes from
She told me it was either her or the Kronos! I'm going to miss her...

Absolutely I have to send a click to the drummer. The easiest way is to connect Kronos to a cheap drummachine (or an iOS / android app ) and send the click from it.

I did in past but it was a down side: it has a very hard pre-production work. If you want to change time, key, tempo or the song structure you have to rework the sequence. But it is only a point of view, depending on the project you are working on...

23 years ago I used ther sequencer in my Korg EX 800. It had 2 outputs and because I was running a mono system we just sent the other side to the board and routed it to a separate monitor send that only the drummer heard loudly. Plus, he had a foot switch to turn it on or off as he needed. I used the EX-800 for other sounds and sometimes he just wanted to hear his regular mix.
I also find just using a straight click is just obnoxious to work with. I prefer4 to send a grooving percussion track generally using latin percussion. Even in metal songs although this is mostly when we're recording. It helps keep everything tight.The "click" is never heard after the fact of course.
If music is the food of love, play on and play loud!
Gear: Kronos 73, Wavestation EX, Polysix, King Korg, Monotron and Monotron Duo, Minikorg, Moog Grandmother, my very old MiniKorg, 4 acoustic and 9 electric guitars, 1 Ibanez 5 string bass, a Steel guitar, a bunch of microphones, 2 pairs of studio monitors and other very cool toys, 1 wife and 4 cats and a lava lamp!
