Effects; Automatically Importing A Program Into Sequencer Mode - Korg kronos Operation Manual

Playing and editing Programs

Effects

Effects are covered in their own section of the manuals, so
we won't go into too much detail here. See the cross-
references below for more information.
Insert Effects
Insert Effects let you send either individual Oscillators or the
entire Program through up to 12 effects, in series. You can
use any type of effects, from distortions and compressors to
choruses and reverbs. The Insert Effects can be routed to the
main outputs, or to any of the individual outputs.
For more information, see "Insert effects" on page 214.

Automatically importing a Program into Sequencer mode

The Auto Song Setup feature copies the current Program or
Combination into a Song, and then puts the KRONOS in
record-ready mode.
If inspiration for a phrase or song strikes you while you're
playing, you can use this function to start recording
immediately. To do so:
1. Hold down the ENTER key and press the
SEQUENCER REC/WRITE key.
The Setup to Record dialog box will open and ask "Are you
sure?"
2. Press OK.
You will automatically enter Sequencer mode, and will be in
the record-ready state.
3. Press the START/STOP key to start the sequencer
and begin recording.

Master Effects
There are two Master Effects, which are accessed through
Sends 1 and 2. These are best-suited to effects such as
reverbs and delays, but you can use them with any type of
effect.
For more information, see "Master effects" on page 215.
Total Effects
The two Total Effects are dedicated to processing the main
L/R outputs. They're ideally suited to overall mix effects,
such as compression, limiting, and EQ–but as with the other
effects sections, you can use any type of effect that you like.
For more information, see "Program P9: Master/Total
Effect" on page 144 of the Parameter Guide.
