KRONOS 3-73 on SGX-2 offers four grand pianos with distinct and peculiar characters: German Grand, Japanese Grand, Berlin Grand, and Italian Grand, all very dynamic, with a modern and expressive timbre, also producing typical acoustic piano phenomena such as Sympathetic String Resonance, key release, timbre variation caused by lid opening, and the \"una corda\" effect (*)(*) Not included in Italian Grand.KRONOS 3-73 Sound LibraryKRONOS has a tonal palette composed of thousands of sounds, created using various synthesis engines and drawing from approximately 21 GB of internal waveforms, carefully developed by the KORG Sound Designer team. The 120 GB internal SSD can host user samples, audio recording files, and Sound Library data. * SSD capacity is subject to change without notice.Multi-Synthesis GenerationEach of KRONOS 3-73's sound generators can be considered an independent synthesizer that employs the most advanced digital technology, with synthesis complemented by real-time parameter control via the large control surface and high-quality, effective integrated effects processing.Set List ModeWith KRONOS 3-73's Set Lists, you can organize the musical resources needed for a concert or session according to your needs. By activating this operating mode, the display shows 16 color-coded touch-screen slots, which you can tap to recall the assigned Program, Combi, or Sequence, appropriately setting some parameters such as: volume, transpose, title, or performance notes such as: \"Sing on the chorus,\" \"Transpose by a half step,\" \"Wait for the sax solo,\" etc., with the ability to change the color, edit the text by varying its use with a PC keyboard connected to the USB port, thus simplifying text and number entry. 128 Set Lists are available with 128 Slots each.KRONOS 3-73 SequencerLike all Workstations, KRONOS 3-73 includes a highly performing Sequencer\/Recorder with 16 MIDI tracks + 16 Audio Full Editing, allowing quick storage of ideas or entire musical pieces. The audio recorder can record up to 4 tracks simultaneously (16\/24 bit linear at 48 kHz), with the possibility of also acquiring tracks already recorded on KRONOS 3-73 complete with effects, placing the obtained audio file in one of the Sequencer's tracks. Editing functions such as: Mixer Automation, Copy, Paste, Normalize, and some sophisticated tools that facilitate the composition or arrangement process such as KARMA or Drum Tracks are also present, shortening the creation of entire pieces.Sequencer Composition ToolsIn addition to MIDI and audio tracks, KRONOS 3-73's Sequencer offers the ideal tools to transform your musical ideas into a complete composition, using interactive real-time techniques not available or difficult to use on a computer-based system.KARMA: this algorithmic function generates elaborate musical phrases, Grooves, and Backing tracks, based on notes and chords played in real-time, and on the movement of knobs, sliders, and switches. KARMA also allows Wave-Sequencing, Note Mapping, and 8 different scenes for each Layer, expanding performance possibilities in Live.Drum Tracks: Automatically producing rhythmic patterns, Drum Tracks can be helpful in various situations, such as during study or composition, or become part of a musical piece or arrangement. They are capable of performing complete percussive performances with all the nuances of a real drummer, thus going beyond the role of a simple Drum Machine.Open Sampling SystemKRONOS 3-73 can sample an external audio source or resample its own performance. The User Sample area allows the creation of personal sample libraries by utilizing the internal SSD, also importing them via USB port in the most common formats and modifying them via the internal Sample Editor, this allows you to center your musical production system exclusively on KRONOS 3 without the need to use other devices.Effects ProcessorKRONOS 3-73 has a powerful effects processor capable of processing any internal or external sound source, generating up to 12 Insert effects applicable to individual timbres in a Program, on the Timbre\/Track of a Combination, or of the Sequencer; 2 Master effects individually adjustable with sends and 2 Total effects as a global sound processing stage. Furthermore, on each individual timbre of a Combi or a Song of the Sequencer (MIDI or Audio), a three-band equalizer is available for further tonal control.Color TouchView DisplayThe nerve center of KRONOS 3-73's user interface is the large 8-inch SVGA color TouchView display (800 x 600 pixels), which allows navigation between pages, selection, and precise parameter control directly with fingertouch. The Display also houses the Search function useful for quickly finding sounds based on characters contained in their name.Control SurfacesIn addition to the parameters accessible from the Touch View Display, KRONOS 3-73 also offers a variety of physical controls useful for both Performance and navigation: a four-axis Joystick, Ribbon Controller, two assignable buttons, and a Vector Joystick. Above the keyboard, there are nine Sliders, eight rotary controls, and various buttons that interact with the sound generator parameters. On the rear panel there are also inputs for pedals: Damper with half pedal and two assignable pedals, one continuous type and the other switch type. Furthermore, on KRONOS 3-73, any type of USB\/MIDI Class Compliant controller, such as KORG nanoPAD, nanoPAD2, or padKONTROL, can be connected directly to the USB port. This way, their Pads 1 to 8 are automatically mapped to KRONOS' virtual ones to play percussive sounds, trigger or change chords in Chord mode.SMOOTH SOUND TRANSITION - Seamless transition between soundsThis function, made possible by the high computational capacity of KRONOS 3-73, allows the selection of different resources and operating modes (Program, Combi, Song), ensuring continuous transition of sounds and effects without interruptions, a feature highly appreciated and praised by many artists and musicians because it allows for a performance without annoying blackouts between the various musical parts used during a performance.Weighted RH3 Weighted Hammer Action KeyboardKRONOS 3-73 adopts the KORG RH-3 Real Weighted Hammer Action keybed with a solid and consistent response and a graded weighting mechanism that reproduces the difference in hammer mass between the bass and treble regions, typical of an acoustic piano.Additional Sound Libraries for KRONOS 3-73KRONOS Sound Libraries are collections of high-quality Programs and Samples constantly published since its introduction with a catalog of over 300 titles characterized by a diverse tonal selection compared to factory Programs. These can be purchased and used with all KRONOS models. These sound resources are distributed directly by KORG on its Shop (click here), where you can search for their titles by instrument: Piano, Strings, Organ, Bass, etc., publication year, price range, and developer name. Two types of libraries are available: EXs, which includes new PCM data, and KRS, which only includes Program data; Artist Signature also offers valuable Programs created or used by top musicians and artists in their most famous Hits or most prestigious concerts.

Details on KRONOS 3 - 73's multi-synthesis generation system Thanks to the advanced technology employed and the sophisticated dynamic voice allocation system, KRONOS can simultaneously use the nine integrated sound engines to achieve highly interesting timbral results. SGX-2 (Premium Piano) Offers the most popular concert grand pianos globally: German, Japanese, Berlin, and Italian Grand, all with Loop-free stereo samples, sampled key-by-key with their natural decay, 12-level Velocity Switch, key releases, string resonance, and \"una corda\" pedal, to reproduce the finest details of a grand piano.\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e• String resonance: Reproduces the typical acoustic piano phenomenon obtained by pressing the Damper pedal and leaving all strings free to resonate. By playing one or more keys, the other strings begin to vibrate due to sympathetic resonance. The harmonics generated by the resonance can be viewed on the corresponding Edit screen.\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e• Una corda: The left pedal on a grand piano is the piano pedal (Soft). Its technical name is \"Una corda.\" Normally, the piano hammer strikes all the strings associated with a given note, usually three or two. The Una Corda shifts the entire piano mechanism so that the hammer strikes only one string, producing a typical sound with a characteristic attenuated and mellow timbre. The Italian Grand does not have the Una Corda.\nEP-1 (MDS Electric Piano) Accurately reproduces the timbres of six famous vintage tine and reed electric pianos, including the renowned Tine EP I Early. EP-1 uses MDS (Multi-Dimensional Synthesis) technology to achieve a seamless transition between the dynamic levels of multi-samples, also allowing control over \"virtual\" sound tines and other elements like hammer mass, in addition to simulations of typical vintage amplifiers, speakers, and effects.\nCX-3 (Electromagnetic Organ) Precisely simulates the typical elements of an electromagnetic organ, including tube amplifiers and characteristic effects such as Vibrato\/Chorus, Rotary Speaker, Fold-back, Leakage, and tonewheel noise. The 9 sliders on the panel allow control via drawbars, just like on the original models. The KRONOS 3-73 User Memory also includes the KRS-06 and 06B Sound Libraries with a total of 256 Programs featuring a precise selection of electromagnetic organs.\nHD-1 (High-Definition Synthesizer) - PCM, Sampling, and Wave Sequencing\nHD-1 is based on PCM sampling, accessing a large sample library residing on the internal SSD with low-aliasing KORG oscillators, multimode filters with resonance, envelopes, and LFOs (Low Frequency Oscillators). HD-1 produces sounds typical of every musical style and repertoire: from orchestral to classic Rock; from Hip Hop to Funk, this wide assortment allows the use of KRONOS 3-73 in many musical situations.\nMS-20EX (Legacy Analog Collection) Analog Physical Modeling Generator\nThe Vintage KORG MS-20 semi-modular monophonic synth was introduced in 1978, quickly gaining widespread acclaim due to the characteristic timbre of its oscillators, aggressive filters, extensive patching capabilities, and sound design possibilities. MS-20EX accurately reproduces the timbral character of the MS-20 using proprietary KORG CMT (Component Modeling Technology), which allows for extensive programming possibilities such as filter modulation with audio frequency oscillators, transforming audio inputs into control signals, controlling virtual knobs with modulation sources like additional envelopes, LFOs, and real-time controls, all with ample polyphonic articulation.\nPolysixEX (Legacy Analog Collection) Analog Physical Modeling Generator\nThe Polysix 6-voice analog polyphonic synth with programmable memories appeared in 1981 with a seemingly very simple structure featuring a single oscillator and sub-oscillator, a four-pole filter, LFO, envelopes, an effective Chorus\/Ensemble, and an integrated arpeggiator. It was capable of generating very effective and iconic sounds like Strings or Pad. PolysixEX can accurately simulate these with high polyphonic capability and greater synthesis possibilities.\nAL-1 (Analog Synthesizer) - Physical Modeling Analog Synthesis Generator\nIt features low-aliasing virtual oscillators that recreate the same impact as analog synthesizers, complemented by multimode filters with resonance and typical modulation controls to achieve classic analog sounds or hybrid sounds of great timbral interest.\nMOD-7 (Waveshaping VPM Synthesizer) - VPM\/Waveshaping\/PCM Sound Generator\nCombines various synthesis techniques: Variable Phase Modulation (VPM), Wave-Shaping, Ring Modulation, Sampling, subtractive synthesis, with a complex patching system worthy of a large modular synth. It produces sounds ranging from classic FM synthesis (bells, basses, electric pianos, etc.), with the ability to import sounds directly from Vintage DX series synths; to the production of very articulated and complex soundscapes.\nSTR-1 (Plucked Strings) - Physical Modeling Generation\nPhysically models plucked and struck string instruments with advanced proprietary technology, producing very interesting timbres with dynamic-timbral nuances extremely difficult to reproduce with other systems.
