Step Sequencer Settings In Combination Mode; Step Sequencer Settings In Sequencer Mode - Korg KROSS Operation Manual

To add a sense of swing to the steps
1. On the P-STEP SEQ> BASIC page, adjust the Step/Bt
parameter.
A swing effect will be added at the following locations.
(see below)
2. On the P-STEP SEQ> MOD page, adjust the Swing
setting.
Specifying the zone
You can use up to 64 steps in a loop pattern. The loop pattern
consists of four zones, A–D, each zone containing 16 steps
that correspond to the 16 pads.
The number of steps in the pattern is specified by the Lgth
(Length) setting on the P-STEP SEQ> BASIC page.
1. Access the P-STEP SEQ> BASIC page.
2. Use the Lgth (Length) setting to specify the number of
steps.
The pattern will play as a loop for the specified number
of steps.
The tempo and Reso (Resolution) settings determine the
speed.
Use the BANK SELECT button to switch between zones
for the specified Lgth. For example if Lgth is 32, two
zones will be available; pressing the BANK SELECT
button will switch between zones A and B.
MIDI transmission from the step sequencer
In Program mode, the step sequencer function transmits note
data on the following MIDI channel.
Data is transmitted on the MIDI channel specified by the
Global/Media mode G-MIDI>OUT page setting Step Seq
Prog MIDI Ch (default setting: ch.16).
Note: MIDI data transmission is enabled if the Step Seq

Prog MIDI Out setting is checked. By default, this is off

Step sequencer programs do not transmit or receive program
changes.
Step sequencer settings in
Combination mode
In Combination mode, timbre 16 is used by the step
sequencer. It will be used if the COMBI> PROG page STEP
parameter is selected. If the STEP parameter is not selected,
timbre 16 can be used as a conventional timbre.
MIDI transmission from the step sequencer
In Combination mode, the step sequencer function transmits
the step sequencer's note data on the MIDI Channel (C-
TIMBRE>MIDI) if timbre 16's Status (COMBI>PROG) is
set to EXT or EX2.
Step sequencer settings in
Sequencer mode
In Sequencer mode, track 16 is used by the step sequencer. It
will be used if the SEQ> PROG page STEP parameter is
selected. If the STEP parameter is not selected, timbre 16
can be used as a conventional track.
Note: If you press the RUN button during the recording pre-
count, the step sequencer will start in synchronization with
the beginning of song recording.
