Sequencer

An example of realtime recording

In this example, we’ll assign a drum program to track 01 and

create the following one-measure drum phrase.

1. Create a new song, and specify a drum program for

track 01.

Use Track Select to select track 01, and verify that you

hear a drum program. (see page 58)

2. Access the SEQ> REC page. In Recording Setup,

specify “Loop (Loop All Tracks)” and set it to M001-

M001.

With this setting, measure 1 will be recorded repeatedly.

The newly recorded data will be added at each pass.

3. Set “REC Resolution” to .

4. Press the SEQUENCER (REC) button, and then

the SEQUENCER (start/stop) button.

The metronome will sound a two-measure count-down,

and then recording will begin.

5. As shown in the musical example printed above, start

by playing the C3 note of the keyboard to record the

bass drum for one measure.

6. Next, play the E3 note of the keyboard to record the

snare for one measure, and then the F#3 note to

record the hi-hat.

Tip: Pressing the SEQUENCER (REC) button (lit)

while recording will pause recording. At this time, the

REC button blinks. When you press the SEQUENCER

(REC) button once again, recording resumes.

7. Press the SEQUENCER (start/stop) button to

stop recording.

8. Play back the result, and listen to the drum

performance that you recorded.

Press the SEQUENCER (start/stop) button When

you’ve finished listening, press the SEQUENCER

(start/stop) button once again to stop playback.

9. If you’re not satisfied with your performance, you can

select the Undo function to return to the state prior to

recording. Record again from step 4.

Note: When you’ve finished recording, clear the LOOP

(Loop All Tracks) check box, and set Recording Setup to

the Overwrite setting that you normally use.

In addition, access the S-LOOP/TONE> LOOP page,

check Track Play Loop for track 01, and set the Loop

Start Measure and Loop End Measure to 001. When

you play back, track 01 will repeatedly play the first

measure.

Performing with the arpeggiator

drum track or step sequencer

Based on the note data it receives from the keyboard or from

the MIDI IN connector, the arpeggiator can generate a wide

range of phrases and patterns including arpeggios, guitar or

keyboard backing riffs, bass phrases, or drum patterns. You

can use two arpeggiators simultaneously. For more about the

arpeggiator, please see page 73.

The Drum Track plays a variety of drum patterns using the

drum program that you’ve assigned to the desired track. For

more about the Drum Track, please see page 83.

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

how it will start.

The step sequencer uses the drum program of track 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.

Recording your pad sampler

performance

By assigning a MIDI channel to the pad sampler, you can

record your pad performance as note data on a track.

Select a song, and in the MAIN page, turn “SMP” on; the

timbre that's assigned to track 15 is disabled (does not

sound), and instead the on/off events of the pad sampler are

recorded as note-on/off events of the MIDI channel that's

assigned to track 15.

If “SMP” is off, the track 15 timbre can be used as usual.

Note: It is not possible to change the track used for the pad

sampler to any setting other than 15.

Recording System Exclusive events

Exclusive messages received from an external MIDI device

or the parameter changes produced when you edit a track

parameter or effect parameter can be recorded in real time on

any track.

During playback, the exclusive messages you recorded will

control the track parameters and effect parameters of the

song, and can be sent to external MIDI devices.

GM, XG, and GS exclusive messages can be recorded

on a track, but the KROSS’s tone generator will not

respond to these messages.

Using realtime controls to record changes in

a MIDI track’s pan, EQ, volume, and tone

adjust

By controlling the pan, EQ, volume, and tone adjust

parameters during realtime recording, you can record these

changes so that they will be reflected during playback.

Use multi-track recording if you want to modify the settings

of multiple tracks simultaneously.

Note: Controlling these parameters will transmit control

change or system exclusive messages. In order for this data

to be recorded, the G-MIDI> FILTER Enable Control

Change and Enable Exclusive settings must be checked. Go

to Global/Media mode and verify that these items are

checked.

Note: Use Param. MIDI Out in G-MIDI> OUT page to

specify whether control change messages or system

exclusive messages will be transmitted when you edit the

Pan (CC#10), Volume (CC#7), or Send 1/2 level (CC#93 and

CC#91) parameters.

Bass Drum: C3

Snare: E3

Hi-Hat: F#3

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
