+alphasxsignal congratulations on your new keyboard! I'm getting my Kronos 2 88 keys next week! I'm so excited already! May you have an awesome day Sir! Peace everyone!
awesome! love it.....thanks for sharing. i've sold my M3 - 61 and the Triton Extreme 76 for a Kronos 2 - 88 - no regrets at all......... the only disadvantage is the motherboard from intel inside. they are not built forever
Kronos is the best. I've tried them all and keep going back to my Korg Kronos 2 88. Almost bought a Montage but found that Kronos was still better in a lot of ways, though not perfect.
Watching you jam out on this beautiful beast is just as refreshing and exciting as watching Rich Formidoni reveal and demo it, years ago. Such great improv! Also, that pizzicato string patch instantly made me wanna play the 600 A.D. overworld theme from Chrono Trigger, bahaha.
Got the Kronos v3 recently, very happy with the capabilities! Some of the best features? Smooth sound transitions, which makes performance seamless and natural. Also love the ease of use, I had heard from many that it is difficult to learn to use the Kronos, but found it to be well laid out, and navigation is fairly easy considering the flexibility it has. Having learned on a piano, I find the touch to be really nice, it maintains a solid feel but is still not too heavy so that fatigue becomes a problem. I will say that repetition speed is not quite there, it is difficult to play a single note repeatedly in quick succession without cutting out.
I love the feel of the keys. It is an overwhelming beast, heavy as hell..but is obviously high quality. You get what you pay for. I could have gotten the Montage, but just wasn't feeling it at all. Right now, it's the best keyboard on the market...(to me).
ano this was a few years ago but wondered if anyone knew the chords for the sections starting at 1 minute and 6.55mins, really good playing DKS. Demonstrated this lovely keyboard well
Two possibly the best keyboards ever: Korg Kronos, and Yamaha Montage. I have them both, and must say, it's quite impossible to but them in order which one is better !!
No una corda pedal support on Montage. No playback past MIDI channel 8 from Cakewalk. Mutually exclusive modes. Wish I had known before I bought it. Now I'm bidding on a Kronos 2.
Magnifico sonido Yanni, Korg es único da igual el modelo, Kronos Krome Triton Pa4x etc.. son lo mejor y este Kronos rompe los moldes de la calidad sonora 👍
I want one! Sounds like my Krog Wavestation EX. This synthenzier is a band in a box. Herbie Hancock play the Kronos. Best keyboard synthenzier of all times.
I just bought the new LS but haven't received it yet. This to replace my OASYS. From listening to this, it doesn't even come close to the OASYS in sound. I hope I can fix my OASYS. I also have a Ketron which has very sweet sounds, as well as Korg PA4X, Korg 2600 plus lots of analog synths. It's all good though.
After playing the Kronos my opinion has changed somewhat. The Kronos piano sounds are very close to Oasys. The combis are similar but the Kronos leads in combi mode work better. I haven’t reviewed the other features. As far as I can tell the oasys can’t be repaired unless you do it yourself. The LS also has a fast keyboard. I really like it
Great!!! Tell me something: how did you sync audio and video? I believe you're using an audio interface, right? Is the video camera capturing audio too in order for you to sync in a specific program? I've been searching for a tutorial on how to record keyboard videos and upload them on youtube, but I can't find! Tks!
Hi. Great job on playing on this video. One question. What did you run the audio through when you recorded this video ? What did you record the actual keyboard audio into ? was it into a camera or into a DAW mixer ? If it was into a camera, what is the name of the camera and what type of wires were connecting between your keyboard and camera. If you recorded into a DAW, what was the DAW's name and what was your audio interface name. Or did you just record into an SD card in the piano or Flash Drive port on the piano ? I ask because the sound quality on the video is truly professional and unbeatable. Cheers from New York City.
As always I record separate audio and video, and combine audio and video part later with final cut pro x. To record you audio you only need a good audio interface with at least two inputs and a daw ;) after that export a wav file and combine with the video file ;)
@@DKS-SYNTH-LAB Thank you for answering back. But, what I need to know is if you are recording to DAW, do you have any special EQ, Compressor, Limiter, or other plugin to beef up your keyboard audio to make it sound this good and pure or do you just run your live audio from the keyboard as an analog live instrument into your DAW. Or are these sounds Midi with Midi cables. I ask that because there is a way to record analog style using the sounds of the keyboard only and just recording it to DAW which is what I think you did. In that case what plugins from the DAW help your sound or did you not use any plugins at all and it's just the pure sound from the piano itself ?
@ExclusiveLM no extra processing are used on every demo. Synth/keyboard directly connected only via audio into the audio interface. Recorded (at 99% all improvised and recorded in one take) and next exported on wav format for the video editing 😉
Loved watching you play, I am thinking about getting the Kronos 2 also. What kind of set up do you run with the computer and software? Also what kind of amp/ speakers do you recommend?
Mine isn't reliable. It's failed me couple times in live when using sequencer mode with latest updates. Not gonna use it for backing tracks anylonger. :(
Hey I see that you have owned many keyboards but I never really got any chance to play most of these so if I were to buy a keyboard with the best keybed and tones which one you would suggest ,, 1) Korg pa5x 2) korg krome 3)Yamaha Genos
Is that a 61 key? I have a 49 keyboard but I feel like I’ve out grown it. I’m pulling my hair out on whether to get 61, 76, or 88 key. Great demoing by the way. Sounds great!
I am not an experienced one in Keyboards or Synths like you guys. But please tell me, why it seems to me that Yamaha voices (Montage or Tyros) are far superior to Kronos2 ? Please tell me, is my thinking on these is wrong ? I will be glad if you kindly comment on my questions. Thanking you all ...
Lol. Kronos is world class. It's feature variety smokes the competition, which is why it remains the upgrade route of choice for those of us who began on Triton EX. Korg has its own signature, chances are you don't much care for it. Yamaha make great DP's but I can't stand their synth sounds. This is the ultimate band board. No doubt.
Can you tell me what you are using for sound output? What kind of speakers are best to get purest sound? (like when using headphones) Thank you...sounds BEAUTIFUL!
You need to find the best studio monitors for your ears! ;) in this situation, like all others videos, the synth is directly conneted into the audio interface. Find good audio interface and good studio monitors/headphones! ;)
I've owned both, but now only own the Kronos 2 88. The Nord stage 2 sounds very very good and is easier to transport than the Korg because of weight mainly. But the Kronos is all in one. Whatever you need for playing solo, recording, composing, playing in a band, it's all there. Saving ideas, organizing things, live sets, effects are all easier on the Kronos. It also has drums and every drum pattern or sound you can ever need. The Nord has no drums or even a click track/metronome. It depends on what your needs are though. The acton on the Korg is also better than the Nord's action.
Montage, Stage 3, Kronoss 2, RD 2000? I kwon that they all aren't the same kind of keyboards! But you could probably help me! What do you think about the sounds? Especially piano, Ep, and synth sounds! Would you rather have this one or that one? Does somebody can give me your opinion? Have someone tried all of them? What is wrong and what's ok? All of them are expensive! I believe that the Nord is actually the most expensive! Yamaha has the second place and korg the last one! I've seen some reviews, but unfortunately I have never tried anyone!
It has a search function. Lower right of the selection window you'll see a magnifying glass icon. Touch it for the search window. Type what you're looking for and it will cycle through all combis or programs that match.
kronos is on sale from 2011.. good workstation, but for some things "an old style" workstation... probably we'll see a new kronos in next years... if you plan to pay 2000/3000 €$ go for Montage or the new Roland Fantom ;)
I’m looking for a workstation that’s based on sampling and has an equal synthesizer and sequencer with the ability to make most of a Concept Prog Rock Album on/from it. I need to be able to use it with Logic Pro and Mac systems. I need zero latency between one sound and another. The Nord 3 is twisting my tits. But I thought I’d ask how does this compare to the Nord line?
Go with the new roland fantom, very good synth/workstation with many update in progress. Now with os 2.0 you have a full sampler if you need it, however you can use thousand of sounds.. fantom has seamless integration with daw and virtual instrument, you can also control mainstage directly from the screen! Probably is the best synth/workstation on the market at the moment ;) Kronos is a really good workstation with lots of power but is a 9 years old synth (if we consider oasys more than 9 years) and probably we will see a replacement in 2021/2022
Like the 95% of my videos i just turn on the instrument, press rec on my daw and camera and i start to play. I’ve started my piano lessons in 2001, so 19 years ago.. ;) improvising is not hard for me, i just play and the sound used in that moment give me the feel of the improvisation ;)
ciao, probabilmente kronos è andato fuori produzione (era in vendita dal 2011), nautilus ha gli stessi motori e suoni ma ha alcune funzioni e caratteristiche di meno (no aftertouch, no karma, no sliders etc)
@@DKS-SYNTH-LAB Grazie Ne ho trovato uno invenduto in negozio 73 tasti; ma all’occorrenza utilizzerò la tastiera dell’Oasys 88. A proposito, pensa che le due tastiere siano complementari(pur considerando la più raffinata informatica del Kronos)?
One of the most beautiful performance of Kronos :) Regards
Сена сколка коре кронс 2
A fine marzo di questo anno, sono diventato un fortunato proprietario di una Kronos 2 73 tasti! Un sogno diventato realtà!!!
WONDERFUL demo. I could listen to your playing all day. You effortlessly breeze through all those complex chords.....
that left to right effect on the crazy ep.. epic..
yes i am wearing headphones
Kushal Salvi same here, love it! using my Audio Technica ATH-M50X monitor headphones!
My favourite keyboard dream board love it!🙂❤
Every new Korg Instrument has its own soul. But the sounds in the KRONOS are great.
Those Big Strings are nice effect and fun to play.
Very nice and very excellent
Veeeeerrrrrryyyyyyyy gggggooooooodddd
High sound quality and combination
High Material quality 😎 😎 😎 😎 😎
In 3:49, I never see this sound so good
Thank you for plugging in direct. It really helps get an idea of how great this keyboard sounds.
Plugging in direct? How do you know this ?
I have had my Kronos 2 for around 6 months and love it.
Oh and its the 88key too.
+alphasxsignal congratulations on your new keyboard! I'm getting my Kronos 2 88 keys next week! I'm so excited already! May you have an awesome day Sir! Peace everyone!
The Kronos 2 is still the Big Bad Beast of the keyboard world in 2023. FAX
No talking is the best. I let all adds to play
awesome! love it.....thanks for sharing. i've sold my M3 - 61 and the Triton Extreme 76 for a Kronos 2 - 88 - no regrets at all.........
the only disadvantage is the motherboard from intel inside. they are not built forever
Very nice playing and love those Kronos 2 machines:)
Kronos is the best. I've tried them all and keep going back to my Korg Kronos 2 88. Almost bought a Montage but found that Kronos was still better in a lot of ways, though not perfect.
That's my dream board kind Sir! Love it!
I have been desperate for a Kronos but my budget isn't allowing me to even touch one.
KORG Kronos II is an unbelievable piece of art.
The Queen!
Best keyboard of all time
Watching you jam out on this beautiful beast is just as refreshing and exciting as watching Rich Formidoni reveal and demo it, years ago. Such great improv!
Also, that pizzicato string patch instantly made me wanna play the 600 A.D. overworld theme from Chrono Trigger, bahaha.
thank you Cory!;)
Cory Harbak yah. Rich moved to casio now
Jade Pascual Aw hell. Now I have to start following Casio! :P Thanks for the heads-up!!!
Magnifique !
Cory Harbak
I WANT ONE!!!! Great demo!
i luv no talking vids - keep it up 👍🏿👍🏿👍🏿
Got the Kronos v3 recently, very happy with the capabilities! Some of the best features? Smooth sound transitions, which makes performance seamless and natural. Also love the ease of use, I had heard from many that it is difficult to learn to use the Kronos, but found it to be well laid out, and navigation is fairly easy considering the flexibility it has. Having learned on a piano, I find the touch to be really nice, it maintains a solid feel but is still not too heavy so that fatigue becomes a problem. I will say that repetition speed is not quite there, it is difficult to play a single note repeatedly in quick succession without cutting out.
Stereophonic Left/Right Flangering of Still Crazy Electric Piano is sounding awesome with Kronos... 👌 11:11
This sounds so great.
My Kronos II is on the way and now im so stoked!
From 6:54 I recognise the kind of Korg signature sound that I was drooling over from the beautiful M1 from the late 80s.
10,000 chords on that fitbit :-)
at least! can't count my steps after a gig!
I love the feel of the keys. It is an overwhelming beast, heavy as hell..but is obviously high quality. You get what you pay for. I could have gotten the Montage, but just wasn't feeling it at all. Right now, it's the best keyboard on the market...(to me).

Fm - Bb6 - Eb(add2) - Fm
Ab - Eb/Ab - Db, Eb - Fm
He repeats the Db, Eb Fm whilst soloing, and throws in a Bb towards the end before landing on an Eb.

Appreciate It!
Nice work, I love my Kronos 73X. I like the action better than the 61. I also love Studio One 3. I see you are using it too. Korg is awesome.
Excellent
you are a beast wow
That is just beautiful. I tip my cat in the hat-hat to you.
That sounds like a weird way of saying your penis
love my kronos2!!!!!!!
I want one! Sounds like my Krog Wavestation EX.

Best keyboard synthenzier of all times.
Amazing
Superb performance

Good demo

Very good sir
Great Demo my dude
Earned a sub. + like!
Same here!
nice synth performance
Fantastic
Very nice!!!!!
i love this keyboard.. 🥰
Hoping for a Wavestation 2 with a similar layout as the iWavestation.
This blows away all the virtual instruments.
Yes!
Great demo!
Sounds like they’re going after the Roland market. But, Imo, nothin beats a Roland Fantom - they’re like a wet dream come true!

8:30 Caleidoskopic nice korg's filter. Yamaha has another one, but Korg's the best. Even on my X-50.
the kronos doesnt looks fance like the roland jupiter 80 - but it has 500% more power/stuff/engines/creativemode like karma in it !! its the UBER WKS

Especially piano, Ep, and synth sounds!
Would you rather have this one or that one?
Does somebody can give me your opinion?
Have someone tried all of them?
What is wrong and what's ok?
All of them are expensive! I believe that the Nord is actually the most expensive!
Yamaha has the second place and korg the last one!
