markusfuller:

my best attempt of Jean-Michel JARRE,s Oxygene 2.
as for copyright Jean Michel jarre allows with fairness the upload of his compositions as long as the original work is credited to him.
Thankyou Jean-michel for the many years of pleasure you have given to so many of your fans.
all the main instruments were played on the korg kronos using pedals to change settings and keyboard split to several parts arpeggiations + bass rhythm were faded in using the Kronos assignable sliders. the moog voyager filled in the nice jarre type sound bites which were added to the track afterwards. no midi was used. just 2 stereo audio tracks.
I wanted to add more SFX and work on the ending a little more but it was getting late and i was losing concentration so this is the best i can do for now. Thanks to GAK pro Audio Brighton 01273-665400 who supplied me with all the instruments used.

Btw, nice setup with the Korg Kronos and Roland JUPITER-80

Dvorkys:

Hello there, for a few weeks I’ve been experimenting with some “space-oriented” sounds, pads, etc. Finally I’m here with my new symphonic – electronic experiment, an instrumental song called “New World”.
It’s my first “more rhythmic piece”, so metallers I have to say sorry for you guys but this kind of music was really fun to record! :)

Have a great time and Thank you very much for Your fantastic support !!!

Do you also have some great awesome music made with the Korg Kronos?

Clicking keyboard problem of the Kronos

First of all:
HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYBODY! :-) Have a great, inspired and musical 2012!

Now back to Kronos:
We know about the problem of the “double hammering” of the Korg Kronos, but there’s also another problem that sometimes shows up.

It’s the clicking of some keys when pressed:

I brought the Kronos (this is the 73 keys version) to our local musicdealer Lyana (Dutch) and he took the time to look at the problem.

It seemed that an aluminum strip was moved an got below a key:

The strip was put into place and now the problem seemed over (and it was). But.. now another key does the same thing (A3 key). The Kronos is still at the repaircenter. We’ll wait for the outcome.

So bottomline: this problem can be easily fixed (this is the conclusion for now)

Below some more pictures of the inner side of the Korg Kronos.
