The app comes with the Kronos factory data preloaded so you can see some useful content instead of blank screens, however you probably have your own programmed presets or own setlists stored on your Kronos that you want to be displayed on the iPad.<\/p>\n<p>If you select a\u00a0preset <em>from within the app<\/em>, it will sync automatically as soon as you hit &#8218;Commit&#8216; and thus ensure all settings match the ones on your Kronos screen.<\/p>\n<p>Each preset on the Korg Kronos features a huge number\u00a0of parameters &#8211; these take some time to load and synchronize within the app, so for a better user experience\u00a0presets that you <em>change on your Kronos<\/em> are <em>not<\/em>\u00a0automatically synchronized. This is to account for fast preset changes on the Kronos (scrolling through your presets) which otherwise might\u00a0slow down the app for quite a while. Instead a &#8217;sync&#8216; button will appear just next to the preset name title bar &#8211; simply tap this button and the app will sync all preset parameters to your Kronos.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Unfortunately we can\u2019t load ALL data onto the iPad and always keep it up-to-date, it would just take too much time and keep you from working properly, so here\u2019s how it works instead.<\/p>\n<p>The important things to keep in mind, assuming you\u2019re on a USB connection:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Preset and setlist names are always synced \u2013 disconnect the Kronos and you still see your presets in the selection list on your iPad<\/li>\n<li>Setlists can be synced manually \u2013 disconnect the Kronos and you can still access every setlist on your iPad<\/li>\n<li>Preset data (parameter values) are only synced for the currently selected preset and overwritten by the next preset if you change \u2013 disconnect the Kronos and the parameter values will be the ones from the recently selected preset, even when you change the preset on the iPad<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><strong><em>Preset names (including setlist names):<\/em><\/strong> On connection the app will check if any banks need to be synchronized and will load all relevant preset \/ setlist names to your iPad. They are stored and will be still visible after you disconnected the iPad or even finished the app. This means once you had the app connected via USB cable and synched, your preset names and setlist names will be stored in the app until they\u2019re updated on the next connection.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Preset data:<\/em><\/strong> each sound preset consists of a huge amount of parameters like level settings, cutoff frequency, FX settings and so on\u2026 if the app would copy all these data on connection (like it does with the names mentioned above) it would take many minutes to copy everything each time you want to use the app \u2013 that\u2019s not something you want to wait for. Instead if you select a preset on the Kronos the app will display the selected preset and give you a \u2019sync\u2018-button next to the preset name. So you can decide if and when you want the data for the currently selected preset copied to the app. If you press that button you see a progress bar and after a few seconds all your parameters will update to the actual Kronos settings. Btw this happens automatically if you use the app to select another preset.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>Setlist data:<\/em><\/strong> setlist data contains the information which presets are contained in a setlist, the colors of the slots, the comments and everything setlist-related. It\u2019s basically the same as the preset data mentioned above \u2013 but since it\u2019s only 128 setlists (compared to more than thousand presets) the app offers an option to copy and store all setlist data into your iPad. You find it on Global &gt; Sync &gt; \u201aLoad all setlists\u2018. Once you pressed this button and waited for the process to end, you have all setlists stored on your iPad \u2013 you can now disconnect the USB cable, connect to your Kronos via Bluetooth and have wireless access to all of your setlists on stage (remember: the Bluetooth connection doesn\u2019t allow synchronization, so the iPad would still show the factory setlists instead of your actual setlists).<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-panel panel-default fusion-faq-post fusion-faq-post-96 \"><span class=\"entry-title rich-snippet-hidden\">How do I connect my iPad and the Kronos?<\/span><span class=\"vcard rich-snippet-hidden\"><span class=\"fn\"><a href=\"http:\/\/download.daniel-luscher.de\/_kronos-remote\/wordpress\/author\/kronosremoteadmin\/\" title=\"Beitr\u00e4ge von KronosRemoteAdmin\" rel=\"author\">KronosRemoteAdmin<\/a><\/span><\/span><span class=\"updated rich-snippet-hidden\">2016-12-23T00:10:49+01:00<\/span><div class=\"panel-heading\"><h4 class=\"panel-title toggle\"><a data-toggle=\"collapse\" class=\"collapsed\" data-parent=\"#accordian-1\" data-target=\"#collapse-1-96\" href=\"#collapse-1-96\"><div class=\"fusion-toggle-icon-wrapper\"><div class=\"fusion-toggle-icon-wrapper-main\"><div class=\"fusion-toggle-icon-wrapper-sub\"><i class=\"fa-fusion-box\" aria-hidden=\"true\"><\/i><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-toggle-heading\">How do I connect my iPad and the Kronos?<\/div><\/a><\/h4><\/div><div id=\"collapse-1-96\" class=\"panel-collapse collapse\"><div class=\"panel-body toggle-content post-content\"><p>You have two ways to connect your iPad to the Korg Kronos, both have their pros and cons.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li><strong>USB cable:<\/strong> connect both devices using a USB cable (and the iPad camera kit) will let the app synchronize all data it needs (see below what \u2019synchronization means in detail) and therefore is recommended to use at least once to sync both devices.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Bluetooth:<\/strong> connect bot devices wireless via Bluetooth \u2013 while the iPad has built-in BT, the Kronos hasn\u2019t and therefore requires a BT-dongle (LE MIDI). You can find dongles that plug into the USB connector and those which you plug into the regular MIDI ports. It\u2019s up to you which dongle suits you best \u2013 the Kronos Remote app is not responsible for the Bluetooth connection between iPad and dongle, so any Bluetooth LE MIDI dongle that works with the iPad will also work with the app!<br \/>\nWhile working wireless is great, the Bluetooth connection currently doesn\u2019t allow you to sync data like preset names or preset parameters. You can use the app to change presets and also change parameters, but the app will only be able to show you the factory preset names instead of the actual names in the Kronos and all parameters will initially be set to default values, not the actual values you have in the Kronos \u2013 unless you had the iPad connected and synced via USB beforehand.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>The recommended way is therefore to use the USB connection initially and every time you changed the content of your Kronos \u2013 this will allow the app to sync everything it needs.

If the Kronos is your only keyboard on stage, if you\u2019re not too much into programming (at least in Combi mode), if you\u2019re satisfied with the Kronos touchscreen and if you\u2019re not the gadget-guy anyways\u2026 you actually don\u2019t need it.<\/p>\n<p>For everyone else:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>It\u2019s great on stage, especially if you don\u2019t have direct access to your Kronos screen \u2013 like you\u2019re playing at a second keyboard or you have another board stacked above the Kronos or if it\u2019s simply not readable in bright sunlight. Also you may want to use a bigger ribbon controller, a touch XY-pad or simply the 8 sample-pads that are hidden in the Kronos menus. You can buy the Korg nanoPad and the nanoControl or just have both on your iPad. Also the response of the Kronos screen is not the best compared to an iPad, so on stage it\u2019s bigger \u2013 brighter \u2013 better.<\/li>\n<li>If you do a lot programming in your combis, you may be annoyed by constantly switching between your editing screens. With Kronos Remote my facourite way of use is to have the mixer page on the iPad to mute \/ unmute parts while you\u2019re tweaking the EQ, the FX or anything else on your Kronos screen \u2013 the Kronos is a beast to program, can\u2019t hurt to do it on two screens.<\/li>\n<li>I mentioned the realtime controls \u2013 the Korg Oasys had 8 big pads below its screen, they\u2019re still available on the Kronos but hidden in the menus and (for my taste) not convenient enough to actually make use of live. Kronos Remote offers a dedicated realtime control mode that for example gives you these 8 pads fullscreen to trigger sounds, chords or whatever you want to do.<\/li>\n<li>As a bonus the pads offer a hold-mode, that is if you tap the pad with two fingers it stays activated (like if you would keep it pressed) until you tap it again. This allows you for example to trigger a certain chord and hold it while you play to it with both hands, then tap another chord and let it hold\u2026<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/download.daniel-luscher.de\/_kronos-remote\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/102"}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/download.daniel-luscher.de\/_kronos-remote\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/download.daniel-luscher.de\/_kronos-remote\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/download.daniel-luscher.de\/_kronos-remote\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/download.daniel-luscher.de\/_kronos-remote\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=102"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/download.daniel-luscher.de\/_kronos-remote\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/102\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":103,"href":"http:\/\/download.daniel-luscher.de\/_kronos-remote\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/102\/revisions\/103"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/download.daniel-luscher.de\/_kronos-remote\/wordpress\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=102"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
