Basic settings for the KROSS

BASIC page
In the GLOBAL>BASIC page you can access settings for
the KROSS's own keyboard.
Tuning to another instrument
To adjust the tuning in fine increments, in order to match
other instruments or recorded music:
• The GLOBAL> BASIC page Master Tune setting
The Master Tune function is adjustable over a range of ±50
cents (one semitone= 100 cents). When Master Tune is at 0,
middle A is tuned to 440 Hz.
Transposing the keyboard
The pitch of the KROSS can be transposed in semitone
steps. This is convenient when you want to change the key of
the song without changing your fingering on the keyboard.
When playing the KROSS by itself
• Adjust the GLOBAL> BASIC page Key Transpose setting.
When playing via MIDI
In addition to the Key Transpose setting described above, you
can also change the G–MIDI>BASIC page Convert Position
setting. By switching the Convert Position, you can specify
whether the Key Transpose setting and the velocity curve
setting (described below) will be applied to MIDI IN or to
MIDI OUT.
If you're using an external MIDI keyboard to play the sound
generator of the KROSS, and want to transpose the pitch, set
this to Post MIDI. The velocity curve will also apply to
MIDI IN.
If you're using the keyboard of the KROSS to play an
external MIDI sound module, and want to transpose the
pitch, set this to Pre MIDI. The velocity curve will also
apply to MIDI OUT.
Tuning and transpose settings
