I tried a bunch of digital pianos last week for a few good hours at a local store, playing various Roland and Yamaha digital pianos up to 1500eur. I completely neglected Korg, but I tried the G1 and immediately fell in love. The action to me felt so much closer to what I am used to having an upright at home, it was really the only one I actually liked and wanted to continue playing.

I'm the first kid on the block to have a Kronos 2, but it's a tiny block.

I use Korg MicroKey mini controllers and they are terrific. Good balance of quick key action and synth weighted. Wish Korg would package that in a full sized key version for a little more money

Korg is on top of the game... Kronos by far the best workstation out there.... Pa4x by far the best arranger out there.... SV1, the only stage piano that comes close to giving you the direct controll of a Nord stage(if they combine it with a kingkorg and name it SV2, they have a true competitor to the nord stage). ..... Also Korg has the best sounding ipad apps, (gadgets and modules) ... Now lets hope they will someday finally release that high end stagepiano ensemble(arranger) workstation... Maybe call it WASP.. (Workstation arranger stage piano)

Great post Chuck as usual, your review of the Kronos was a had a big influence on why I bought my Kronos X. Best purchase I ever made. As you said Korg is an awesome company. Thanks again!!

Thanks, Tim! Glad to hear about your getting the Kronos! Do you still have the Nord as well?
@TimE_51507 жыл бұрын
Yes I resolved that issue of low output volume on the Nord, turned out to be a bad cable. I have had the Kronos since 2012. The Kronos still amazes me to this day. Be well my friend.

Amazing what a bad cable can do. I've had the Kronos a year longer than you have, and I too, am still very, very amazed by it!!

I just got some external piano samples from Synthcloud for my Kronos 2 I’d like to know is it possible by mistake to write over the internal build in piano samples which I’m afraid of losing.

Was sitting there thinking I wonder what Chuck thinks about the SV1 and then like magic you brought it up! I've always wanted one, but every time I'm about to pull the trigger, reports about keybed problems scare me away (which was incidentally also a problem for your Kronos). I remember playing the Kronos in a music shop not too long ago, and being less than impressed with the action. Wish it had a feel closer to the studiologic numa concert. Have you spent any time with that board? Saw the nice job you did with the sl88. An official review of the sv1 would also be cool. And while we're making wishlists, have you reviewed the Cp4?Take care!~Mike

@dashizl7 жыл бұрын
hey chuck, what was your impression of sv1's action? I have been trying to get my hands on one but apparently they are a rare beast. Aesthetically I'm in love but am more concerned about feel.
@PianoManChuck7 жыл бұрын
Should be very similar to keybed on the Korg Kronos. Same action although the Kronos may be using a slightly newer version.

KORGMan Chuck ;-} Yeah, yeah, yeah...KORG-addiction, as I usually call that. I know exc. what you mean: it's the overall sound, the overall feeling, strong intuitive play...deep and atmospheric warmth....through the decades, every KORG seems to have built in these secret ingredients: always seems that one sound rolls out to an endless new one and therefore you could easily state, KORG gives you a keyboard with limitless (timeless) possibilities, don't ya think? Thanks!

The Tube in the SV-1 isn’t just for show. It’s a low wattage power-amp with a dummy speaker circuit and feedback. Of course, it’s mono, because there is only one tube, and unfortunately the stereo tremolo, which is before the the amp stage turns to mono when you use the tube drive.

PianoManChuck, if you are not already, you should join the Kronos Enthusiast Workshops on FB. Lots of good stuff. Someone shared a 6+ Gig Steinway D patch for free. Can't wait to try it!! :-)

The Kronos' built-in "German D" piano IS a Steinway D, and is a multi-gigabyte sample with 12-layer velocity switching.

I've always preferred Korg over Roland and Yamaha for the user interface experience. I've owned a lot of Korg and Roland gear over the years but Korg was always easier to use. I must say that both Roland and Yamaha beat Korg when it comes to certain acoustic guitar sounds, particularly the Motif ES/XS/XF.

Korg kronos is great with one major flaw. All the pianos are BAD in 2017, all other brands have way better pianos...the metal feeling in the middle part of piano is just awfuly bad. So if you look away and use pianos form other sources like nord, roland, kurzweil even casio, kawai you are happy with korg. ;)

@instrumentalistjade83676 жыл бұрын
The kronos would be a good or bad choice depends on your playing and ears😀. Also i agree with you if you are only looking for a piano feel or piano sound, alot of brands that are cheaper are better.. but people/consumers don’t understand is, a Kronos is a WORKSTATION... its not a digital piano.. the digital piano part is only a bonus.. the workstation part is the serious part about this keyboard..
@lunde286 жыл бұрын
But you can always expand the Kronos with new sounds. So if you are not happy with the piano sound find some on the internet and upload it. I have build a number of Roland MS20 piano sounds from wav files for my Kronos.
