This soundset is made exclusively for the Korg Kronos synthesizer. It uses lots of the special features that the Korg Kronos Polysix synthesizer has to offer. This soundset contains 32 programs created with the Polysix.
Every program contains a drum track, 8 KARMA scenes and 8 Chords assigned to the Pads. If you want to have an idea how to use the sound just activate the drum track and KARMA and press one of the 8 pads.

The most important part is that all sounds are different so you have examples of how to create specific type of sounds yourself. The best part is that I have decided to release this set for FREE!

There are lots of tricks hidden in these programs. Tricks like:
- WaveShaping
- Modulation through AMS sources
- 8 KARMA scenes with arpeggiator and chord gating patterns for Dance music
- 8 Chord progressions for Dance music for each program
- Effect demo's
- And much more!

So there's a lot more than meets the eye when you first look at the patches, so take your time to explore them if you want to learn programming the PolySix.


This soundset is part 3 of the full QR Ambient Dreams Program set. These sounds are used in the upcoming Combi soundset called Ambient Dreams which will be released later this year.

Ambient Dreams program suite:
MS-20 : ElectroPhoretic
MOD-7 : SpectraKinematics
PolySix : AnalogHypnotics
HD-1 : VectorVitamins


Performance tips and tricks
Almost every program uses the following setup for the Modulation joystick and the Switches. So try every sound to see how you can use these for performance purposes:
SW1: Transpose down
SW2: Lock Ribbon
Ribbon: Cutoff and Resonance
KARMA Scenes: every scene is different

It's was a lot of work to create these programs, sounddesigners on this forum put a lot of effort in their creations to make them available for everyone. So PLEASE leave a note to keep us motivated sharing our combi's and sounds.

I really would like to know which is your favorite program from this collection. Have fun with the soundset!

regards,
Qui Robinez

Simply Outstanding, Qrobinez.

Wow, this has to be a whole bunch of work and you're releasing them for free.
Before long, you will have more libraries available than Korg has for the Kronos.

Thanks again for all your dedication, time and support for this community!

Another great gift.

Brilliant.

Love Smooth Silver Arp and Heat Wave Arp. Very Tangerine Dream like inducing sounds.

Love Smooth Silver Arp and Heat Wave Arp. Very Tangerine Dream like inducing sounds.

Thanks,

The heat wave arp is also my personal favorite sound of this soundset.
That arp can be used in any musical context and still sounds great over all the other sounds, that's why i like it that much

[mrfudge]

Wow! These are fantastic, thank you so much for all your hard work, I love them all.

[billysynth1]

Thankyou very much for these. I look forward to your combi's and happy to pay for all the work you have put into all these librarys you have provided.

Regards

[jimknopf]

Thanks again from me too.

And yes, after all the free instructions and soundsets we should all encourage you to take some of our money for the next effort!

[jazlover]

Even though this is not my style of music...these are excellent as always. Thank you Qui !.....again and again.

[BillW]

Very nicely done! Thank you for sharing with us!!!

Great work!

Thank you jimknopf, i'm really glad that you all like the sounds i've provided, and these stay free.

When i bought the Kronos i've noticed that the sound i liked was not available in the factory presets. So a half year ago i started on completely reprogramming the Kronos for the songs i make. Now a lot of these presets were quite good and different then the factory ones. So i've decided to make 4 sets of them of 32 programs and share them with the community so that they could also have the different sound i liked on the Kronos.

I've shared 96 sounds uptill now. The last bank will be a HD1 engine bank where almost all sounds are created with the Vector automation possibilities in mind. Then the 128 programs are shared and everyone can create ambient and dance like songs and combis with those sounds on their own kronos.

But you are not the only one saying that they are willing to pay for soundsets. So i'm investigating if i can setup a store in the future where i can offer some additional soundsets and combi soundsets for the people that are interested in these kind of sounds. I have a lot of different sounds available, like the sounds from the AL-1 engine that i didn't share.

I didn't decide yet if i go that path, because in the past i worked as a professional sound designer for other synth companies and stopped with that due to the hard economical times, but with the possibilities of internet it could be an opportunity for me to start a store for this.

Even though this is not my style of music...these are excellent as always. Thank you Qui !.....again and again.

Really appreciate your remark jazlover, also bear in mind that these sounds can be used for other styles when you disable the KARMA pattern and drum track. For instance the Landscapes preset and the cold fog pad are great sounding patches that can be used for other styles too.

Qui, excellent sounds and creativity, as usual!
I agree with this last comment, as I'm more of a jazz man myself, I still have found countless examples of Qui's sounds useful for my own taste, once the Drums and Karma are turned off

Thanks again as always Qui, your work is most appreciated!

[rmvieira]

Another fantastic set of programs! Great programming and thank you very much for sharing!

[macroenie]

Tried them out yesterday evening and man what a job well done!
To me this is your best set as almost all tick the box regarding one of the music styles I like.
So once again, thank you so much for your efforts!
I too, would have gladly paid some amount for this set but being Dutch I, of course, do not complain that you provide the set for free
