Jetrocker started following Use midi to swap keyboards bottom to top and top to bottom
-
I'm what you call a midiot, so sorry if this question is a little in left field. I know you can control one synth with another synth's keyboard, but is it possible to literally "swap" keyboards such that what is coming out of the top board is played on the bottom keyboard and what is coming out of the bottom board is played on the top's keyboard? The reason I'm asking is that the horn lead I want to play has the right sound from the bottom board, but the keyboard action is faster on the top and my "normal" playing routine is right hand on top, left hand on bottom. I have a Kronos 2 on top and a Nord Stage 3 compact on the bottom. Thanks for any input.

Kronos question: Using Set List to send ext. prog changes
Jetrocker replied to timwat's topic in The Keyboard Corner
Guys, I have been going in circles for days on this. I have a combi in my set list and when I hit that, I want a specific patch to come up on my Nord Stage 3 via midi. The input I've received mostly say "this is easy", "just set the midi channel and patch number to what you need in the control surface and it's done". To someone who's brand new to this aspect...it's not intuitive. Can someone please give me a basic, baby style walk thru of each step required on the Kronos to get this done? Specific things including where to input the needed info for the Nord, what that specific input that is, and all that needs to be done with global settings, combi settings, and setlist slot setting. I will be eternally grateful.... -

I just ordered one! Fingers crossed... Thx for the recommendation. 1/2 price the MidiJet, even with shipping from Hungary. And Chick Corea endorsed (RIP). Mark

I bought one of these systems in 2007 and it still works perfectly. The receiver runs on batteries, so you can velcro it anywhere. -dj Thanks for both inputs on Midijet. Like everything else these days, they are out of stock everywhere! Mark

Probably beat to death subject, sorry (search engine down), but who can recommend a stable, reliable wireless midi system? Have been using the bluetooth wireless on the Vortex...complete fail. Stuck note hell. Really would like to continue doing some tunes with keytar, but need an aftermarket system and works! Thanks, Mark

Not one Kronos SE or Titanium 61 for sale in the entire US?
Jetrocker replied to Jetrocker's topic in The Keyboard Corner
They actually have some on sale here in the Philippines, at a cheaper price than in the U.S. (because its on sale until the end of the month I think). Might still end up cheaper with shipping & all to there. https://www.korg.ph/kronos Thanks, but they said the are not able to ship to the US and I needed to contact Korg here. pffft. -
Anyone know what happened to Korg Forums?

Yes, it's back! -

Jetrocker replied to Jetrocker's topic in The Keyboard Corner
Dave, I agree, but hadn't thought about it until your post. I have a V2-61 now, but thought I'd try to find a "newer one" and get red or "vanilla" while I do it. Mine's 2016 and I love it...worried about it going belly up with 5+ years on it and (I've heard) some parts not available anymore. -
Haven't been able to get to the Korg Forums website for a couple days? Anyone know what's up?

Because I had such a horrible experience with you Alesis Vortex and that wireless midi. I would have stuck hanging notes about every 15 to 30 seconds.

I looked at the AX-Synth manual and checked out a review. One MFX per Tone, and patches are saved at the Tone level. You might be able to edit sounds at a 'Partial' level with the editor, but the only effects allowance I could see was MFX per Tone and individual patch level to a global reverb. I played one of these while sitting-in at a friend's gig back in 2014, and what struck me was how well the MFX were tailored to the Tones - of the half dozen or so I played. So if the "guitar distortion amp" MXF defines the sound of that organ patch for you, it could be worth playing the sound through a rotary FX pedal (The flipside of what KuruPrionz suggested). I connected a Roland RD-2000 to a Lester K pedal for a recording a few years ago - bypassing the rotary effect in the RD, but keeping the amp sim that defined the tonewheel patch; it worked very well. If you connect your AX-Synth to a Ventilator, Lester K or similar unit, you might find the sound needed; then simply click the bypass on the pedal for your other patches. Thanks very much for the input. I had seen on the editor program that you can chose what tone to use when you change an effect, but everytime I chose a specific tone to change the effect, when I change the effect, it changes ALL the tones to that same effect. Not sure what I'm doing wrong... Yes, I may just get a distortion pedal and put it in my wireless chain for the AX. Just frustrating that the software isn't "behaving" like it's supposed to...

Thx. I just want to use this for 3-4 tunes during the night, so I can dance around and act like a fool. . I have a Kronos and Stage 3 for everything else. I tried to use an Alesis Vortex 2 and the MIDI wireless is total trash.

Thanks but my point is, unless I'm not understanding, is that it appears there is only one MFX effect that can be used at a time. Currently this patch uses a "guitar distortion amp" MFX to give the patch the aggressive gr, and if I change that to the VK rotary effect, the patch loses all of the grit and is just a plain organ now with rotary.
