richforman Posted September 16, 2016 Author Share Posted September 16, 2016 Here's another question and I'm sorry if it's a little vague. Is there an easy way to bring a timbre/program into a combi such that it sounds just like it does in Program mode?, I guess with the same effects? We all know the experience of doing that, you audition the sounds individually, one sounds great so you put it into your performance set-up and now it sounds completely thin and weak, and I've had this already in building my first few combi's.

burningbusch Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 Sure, In COMBI mode, top-right drop down menu select COPY FROM PROGRAM. The top dialog is the name of the program you're copying to the combi. Select IFXs-ALL USED. Choose whether you want to use the MFXs/TFXs from this program or not. If KARMA and drum tracks aren't important, don't worry. Choose which of the 16 timbre slots you want to put the program and click OK. Now if you do the same for the next program in the combi and again select IFXs-ALL USED these will be added below the first program's IFXs and be properly routed. So yes, it's pretty easy to get them to sound exactly or close to exact. It will be the master effects, MFXs/TFXs that might make some difference. These will always be overwritten if you select them each time. Busch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richforman Posted September 16, 2016 Author Share Posted September 16, 2016 Wow awesome! Thanks for the response BB. Reminds me, after work, I'm going to go check out the new Beatles concert documentary at the local arthouse cinema and before I go in I might do a little bush burning of my own!

richforman Posted September 19, 2016 Author Share Posted September 19, 2016 Got another one. When in Combi mode you select the "copy from program" command to bring a program into a track, can you have it browse the programs by category rather than by banks? I can do that from Program mode, or in Combi mode on the "Play" page by clicking on the category name at the top of that track, but haven't seen how to get it to do that within "Copy From Program."

richforman Posted September 19, 2016 Author Share Posted September 19, 2016 That's a piece of lousy programming then, they should address that in a software update.

richforman Posted September 19, 2016 Author Share Posted September 19, 2016 Yes I'm loving it but of course we will always find a couple little quirks to complain about! As a software developer things like that come to my mind (browsing to find a program should be the same no matter what context you do it in).

richforman Posted September 19, 2016 Author Share Posted September 19, 2016 Used the new Kronos for my gig this last weekend, it was just one set and I didn't need any samples for it, so it was a perfect chance for me to get started with Set Lists and the basics of getting around. Very happy with the results, still plenty of tweaking to do.

Its incredibly powerful and it is flexible. Why fit in, when you were born to stand out ?

CEB Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 Last night sucked. I was playing a Demi Lovato tune called Confident and the Kronos locked up emitting a single high pitch sound. Sort of like when MIDI causes a stuck note. I brought up a JP 8 brass patch on the FA-06 while the Kronos rebooted and finished the tune. I hope this was an isolated incident. It was fine the rest of the night. "It doesn't have to be difficult to be cool" - Mitch Towne "A great musician can bring tears to your eyes!!!

J. Dan Posted October 2, 2016 Share Posted October 2, 2016 Hmm, that's odd...I tried plugging my iPad intoi T thinking it would charge and it said it couldn't charge from that source.

JB Sherry Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 That's because a standard USB2 port provides up to .5A. Your iPad charger provides 2A, an iPhone charger, 1A. .5A may be enough if the screen is off, but no way you'll be able to charge while using. Someone anecdotally reported needing a minimum of .8A for the iPad to think everything is ok. So why do Mac USB ports work? Apparently, they have special powers https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT204377 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CEB Posted October 3, 2016 Share Posted October 3, 2016 I don't know the power requirements but my tablet is a android tablet running Mobile Sheets Pro. Which is just a fancy music specific PDF reader. It charges really slow. It pretty much just holds it own on a 4 hour gig.
