Kronos is a LIFETIME instrument everyone should have in their collection. It is so deep and has so many custom libraries available. You can get lost in the MS20 section alone for months.
I love the new look; really fresh and would be perfect on stage in the dark.
The Kronos is not a user friendlyinstrument where it comes toprogramming your own sounds.. and programming karma scenes is even harder..
Fantom and Montage are much more suited for creating your own sounds and so give much better results...
If you want true fun programming things like the ms 20... use VsT’s.. and controll them from your kronos (and even at this montage and fantom are next level) And then just sample the sounds you need live (this is how Jordan Rudess uses his kronos)
Believe it or not, kronos is starting to show its age, once i got used to other modern instruments like modx and genos, i realized there was no way back for me to the kronos with everything on the touchscreen being just to small to comfortably controll with your fingers..
The new look cant hide its core design is like 15 years old ( oasys)
