Nice to see this trick! Hope to see more patch ideas for KROSS 2 soon

[@georgeray3492]

Great walk-through. Cool tip. Thanks!

[@akhiryugo6361]

This helped me so much. I was already beginning to hate my newly bought kross 2 because there was no assignable knobs like my current x50. Thank you❤❤❤

That's great, I'll try it! Any chance an old fashioned layer on, layer off can be programmed to the swtiches?

[@lysaf86]

Late, but it is the same procedure ! just replace Mod Wheel as source by SW 1 or SW2. Note that in this case the change is abrupt ! I personnaly prefer a switch too, and I found that using the Stereo Gate with intput Dmod ,slow attack and and slow release is ideal for me (I and Keep the modulation as it is programmed initially) The gate way allow to keep the volume initially programmed for the layer too.

i have a ypg 235 and felt in love with it and it has an option to have a really high sensitivity that it doesn't matter how hard u press on keys they sound loud (which is what im used to). is the korg kross 2 able to do that?

[@carpegiane1504]

how can i adjust wav volume in real time?

[@jeromelozano1091]

why the video is blurd now?

[@F_Tproperty]

How to use Foot volume?

[@vicoycoytv6516]

Hi its cool but its blurd cant follow your step

[@michaelanaya8444]

Done it but still modulate the sound. How can i remove?

[@livegun5572]

this is the same problem i cant figure out. have u figured it out?

[@johnlungay]

I have the same question. But I don't know if this is a decent solution. Go to C-Timbre / OSC / OSC Select / Only OCS2

[@jillalexiestrada2308]

What is 107?!

[@frankgijselhart]

When is the new OS for the Kross coming out?

[@frankgijselhart]

@Alfred Anthony Setting tempo, quick selecting menu items with the pads, and workflow of some menu’s

[@mirkomontaldo]

@@frankgijselhart Which version are you referring to? 1.2.1? Thanks

[@frankgijselhart]

@@mirkomontaldo v1.2.0. Don’t know the difference with v1.2.1.

[@mirkomontaldo]

@@frankgijselhart My one already has 1.2.1 and the 'quick selecting menu items with the pads' is not yet there... not sure if they will fix those section sooner or lated. The selection of programs, drums, arp, etc. with the wheel only is really annoying.

[@frankgijselhart]

@@mirkomontaldo As aspected. Korg don’t do much for their users. There is a lot to desire but no OS updates from Korg.

KORG is too complex to use. I used Yamaha MO6 previously and it supports 4 voice layers, each has its own volume slider. Easy to adjust in real time. I bought a KROSS 2 recently (for its sounds) and had to use a volume pedal to control the volume of each voice (in my favorite banks). The purpose is to ensure no voice sound way too loud nor too soft. Volume pedal is not that expensive, it solves the volume problem.

[@redondojonas3664]

too much work. you could get this effect in the xps 30 just by moving the sliders

[@tkarlmann]

I'm sure the content was was good; however your video quality was awful! You need to either increase the contrast of the Kross's LCD or change your lighting. I could barely read the display -- and I have a 24" monitor set to full-screen.
