Patches (Korg KRONOS / KRONOS-X)
Name Description
Factory Sounds V2 (for KRONOS 2.1) FACTORY_V2 provides the latest version of the factory sounds: PRELOAD_V2.PCG. This includes updated CX-3 Programs in banks I-A and U-C, which take advantage of the new CX-3 features in KRONOS system version 2.1. All other data remains the same.
KRS-06 CX-3 Signature Sounds (for KRONOS 2.1) - To celebrate the updated CX-3 in KRONOS software version 2.1, we asked some of our favorite organ players to collaborate with us on a new set of sounds. The result is KRS-06: CX-3 Signature Sounds, a bank of 128 EXi Programs which deliver the distinctive timbres of these acclaimed artists and take full advantage of the new CX-3 features.

 

Patches (M3)
Name Description
M3 Pro Vintage Keys This collection of 32 classic keyboard sounds was programmed by Jack Hotop to provide more expressive, natural sounding programs, with improved velocity switching (up to 8-way switching!). Constantly referring to classic recordings by top artists across many genres of music, special attention was paid to Controller Modeling for accurate Stereo Panning, Tremolo, Key Off, String Muting, and Tone Control.

Likewise, custom vintage FX assignments like Phase Shifter, Stereo Vintage Wah, Flanging, Stereo Tube PreAmp, Distortion, Ring Mod, Tape Echo, Reverb & more were designed to get the classic settings heard on the recordings that shaped the legacy of these timeless instruments. Pad assignments, KARMA & Drum Track grooves are provided for every sound.

Two versions for the M3 Xpanded are provided:
  1. Regular uses G000 through U-G000
  2. If you want to load PCM-04 Option at the same time we have provided a “merged” version that loads these sounds into U-G027 through U-G058 Both PCG and Editor files are provided. For the Editor file you must select a BANK File, not an ALL file to be able to load them. This way you can load a complete single Bank rather than the whole state of your keyboard. For more info read the manual that came with your editor file.
NOTE: These files require version 2.0 or higher.
