Recording Midi In Real-Time - Korg Kronos Operation Manual

Creating songs (Sequencer mode)
If Copy Pattern to MIDI Track too? was checked in
step 3, the Copy Pattern To MIDI Track dialog box
will appear.
This is the same dialog box as the one that appears for
the Copy To MIDI Track menu command.
5. In the Pattern field, select a pattern to copy.
6. In the To MIDI Track field, select the track to use
for the Drum Track pattern.
7. In the Measure field, set the measure on which
you'd like the pattern to start.
Note: In each of the eighteen preset Template Songs,
track 1 is always assigned to a Drum Program. (In
some cases, other tracks may also have Drum
Programs.)
Following the names for each of the preset patterns,
the musical style and the name of the most suitable
Drum Programs are partially displayed. (Refer to the
VNL for a complete list of Drum Programs.)

Recording MIDI in real-time

When you've finished with "Preparations for
recording," as described above, you can start
recording!
Real‐time recording lets you record your performance
on the KRONOS, including the notes that you play,
joystick and knob movements, and so on. This is in
contrast to step recording, which is described in a later
section.
Location
Track Select
78
By loading a drum track and the corresponding preset
pattern, you can instantly set up a Drum Track to
match the Template Song.
8. To load the Drum pattern, press the OK button.
After the pattern is loaded, the Measure will count up
automatically. You can then copy another pattern if
desired. For instance, you can use different patterns
one after the other to build up a song, with different
patterns for verse, chorus, and bridge.
After you've finished adding patterns, press the Exit
button, and you're done!
Saving your own Template Songs
You can also save your own Template Songs:
1. Set up a Song to your taste, including Programs,
effects, KARMA settings, the Song name, and so
on.
2. In the P0: Play/REC page, press the page menu
button and select the Save Template Song
command.
3. In the To field, select one of the 16 user Template
Song locations,U00...15.
4. Press OK to save the Template Song.
For more information, see "Save Template Song" on
page 625 of the Parameter Guide
The default is to record onto a single track at a time. As
an alternative, multitrack recording allows you to
simultaneously record multiple channels of data onto
multiple tracks. This is handy for use when recording
RPPR, KARMA, or the Drum Track, or for recording
the output of an external sequencer in a single pass.
Recording setup
In P0: Play/REC– Preference page Recording Setup,
select the realtime recording method you want to use.
