Connections Using an SD card

Using an SD card

You can use an SD card to save or load programs,

combinations, and song data, and also for audio recording

and the pad sampler function.

Types of SD card you can use

SD card specifications

SD memory cards up to 2GB and SDHC memory cards up to

32GB are supported.

SDXC memory cards are not supported.

MS-DOS format FAT16 or FAT32 are supported.

SD card is not included. You will need to purchase it

separately.

Formatting SD card

Some consumer electronics products that use SD cards

utilize their own proprietary format method. Before using an

SD card with the KROSS, you must format it on the

KROSS. (see page 129)

Inserting/removing an SD card

Inserting an SD card

• Insert an SD card in the SD card slot.

With the card label facing upward, insert the connector

end of the card into the SD card slot and press it in until

you hear a click.

Make sure that the card is oriented correctly when

you insert it. Forcing it in the wrong direction may

damage the slot or the card, and the data may be lost.

Removing an SD card

During loading, saving, formatting, audio recorder

operation, or MIDI data dump reception, you must

never remove the SD card from the slot or insert it in

the slot. Doing so may cause the SD card or the

internal data to be damaged.

• Press the card inward; you will hear a click, and the card

will partially pop out, allowing you to pull it completely out.

Please see the owner’s manual included with your card,

and observe the guidelines for handling and use.

About the write protect setting of an SD card

SD cards have a write protect switch that prevents the data

from being overwritten accidentally and lost. If a card is

protected, you can’t save or delete data on it, use it to record

with the audio recorder, or format the card.

If you need to perform these procedures, you must first set

the switch to its original position.

Automatic SD card loading at start-up

If the unit is powered-on with an SD card containing audio

data already inserted, data loading may continue

automatically after start-up in some cases. During this time,

there are no restrictions on playing the keyboard or

performing most operations, but functions that access the SD

card will be in a paused state. The SD card access indicator

( ) will blink in a position that overlaps with the

remaining battery capacity indicator or the AC adapter

indicator.

At this time, the AUDIO REC, SAMPLER ACTIVE/HOLD,

and AUDIO PLAY ACTIVE buttons will be disabled; if you

press these buttons, the message “SD card busy Please

wait.” is displayed. Likewise, the “SD card busy Please

wait.” message is displayed if you access the MEDIA page,

and that page will be unavailable.

Similarly, GLOBAL - FUNCTION - “Load Preload/Demo

Data” and “Update System Software” will also be

unavailable. To use these functions, wait until the SD card

access indicator has stopped blinking.

Connecting the KROSS to a computer

USB connection

The KROSS provides both MIDI connectors and USB port

as standard equipment. By connecting the KROSS to your

computer via USB, you can use it as a controller and MIDI

sound module for your DAW software with single cable

convenience; and with out the need for a MIDI interface.

By using the dedicated editor, you can edit some of the

parameters of the KROSS from your computer as though it

were a software plug-in.

Before you connect the KROSS to your computer

via USB, you must install the KORG USB-MIDI

driver on your computer.

About the software

The latest version of the KORG USB-MIDI driver and the

KROSS Editor/Plug-in Editor can be downloaded from the

Korg website. (http://www.korg.com/)

Make connections as follows.

1. From the Korg website, download the KORG USB-

MIDI driver.

2. Install the driver as described in the documents that

accompany it.

Note: For audio, the KROSS uses the standard USB

audio driver that is built into Windows or Mac OS, so you

don't need to install the audio driver separately.

3. Power-on the KROSS.

4. Connect the KROSS's USB B port to a USB port of

your computer.

When the KROSS is connected to the computer, the

computer detects the KROSS as a USB MIDI device and

a USB audio device.

SD card slot

SD card

During last night's gig, my Kross 2 started changing "Favorites" - one after the other - switching through the banks and sounds, while I was playing. What could cause that. It didn't do it all the time, just every now and then at random. Submitted on 4-9-2022 at 00:59
