Playing and editing Combinations

Normally, this should be set to OSC1&2.

Portamento

If the Program uses portamento, but you’d like to disable this

for the current Combination, set this parameter to Off.

Conversely, if you want to force the portamento to be on, or

just to change the portamento time, set this to a value of

001–127. The portamento will change to use the newly

specified time.

Normally, this should be set to PRG.

Pitch settings

Transpose, Detune (BPM Adjust)

These parameters adjust the pitch of the timbre. Adjust these

settings in the C-TIMBRE> PITCH page.

• In a layer-type combination, you can set two or more

timbres to the same program, and create a richer sound

by using Transpose to shift their pitch apart by an octave

or by using Detune to create a slight difference in pitch

between the two.

• In split-type combinations, you can use Transpose to

shift the pitch (in semitone units) of the programs

specified for each key zone.

Note: If you wish to change the playback pitch of a drum

program, use Detune. If you change the Transpose setting,

the relationship between the notes and drum sounds will

change.

Scale selection

Use a Program’s Scale, Scale Type (timbre scale and

overall scale)

This specifies the scale for each timbre. Adjust these settings

in the C-TIMBRE> SCALE page.

If you check Use Program’s Scale, the scale specified by

the program will be used. Timbres where this parameter is

not checked will use the Scale setting.

Delay

You can set some Timbres so that they don’t sound

immediately at note-on. This can create cool effects, and

more dramatic layers. Adjust these settings in the C-ZONE/

DELAY> DELAY page.

You can specify the delay for each Timbre either in

milliseconds (ms), or in rhythmic values which sync to the

system tempo.

If you set the Delay to Key Off, the Timbre will sound when

the note is released.

Arpeggiator settings

According to the note data received from the keyboard or

from the MIDI IN connector, the arpeggiator will

automatically generate a wide range of phrases or patterns

including arpeggios, guitar or keyboard backing riffs, bass

phrases, or drum patterns. A combination lets you use two

arpeggiators.

For more about the arpeggiator, please see page 73.

Drum Track settings

While you perform using a combination, you can use the

KROSS’s rich variety of drum patterns to play high-quality

drum programs.

Playing along with Drum Track patterns is often a useful

way to come up with new phrases.

You can select the drum program that you want, and specify

how it will start.

For more about the Drum Track function, please see

page 83.

Using the step sequencer

In a combination, the step sequencer uses the drum program

of timbre 16. You can use pads 1–16 to intuitively create

drum loop patterns and play them.

For more about the step sequencer, please see page 89.

Effects

For details, please see “Using Effects” on page 67.

Automatically importing a

combination into Sequence mode

You can use the Auto Song Setup feature, which

automatically copies the settings of the program or

combination and puts the KROSS in record-standby mode

when you simply press the SEQUENCER (REC) button.

Then you can press the SEQUENCER (start/stop)

button to begin recording.

For details, please see “Auto Song Setup function” on

page 60.

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
