Combination and Sequencer modes
In Combination and Sequencer modes, you can use the track
EQ and insert effects to process the program sound (and
audio track sound) of each timbre/track. Then you can use
the master effects to create overall ambience, and use the
total effects to make final adjustments.
In Combination mode you can make these settings for each
combination, and in Sequencer mode you can make them for
each song.
In Sequencer mode, you can switch between effects or
modify the effect parameters and record these changes, so
that effects will switch automatically or effect parameters
will be modified automatically as the song plays back.
Combination and Sequencer modes
Sampling mode
In Sampling mode, the analog, S/P DIF, and USB audio
inputs, as well as playback from a USB CD drive, can be
processed by insert effects, master effects, and total effects,
and then sampled. Use the P0: Recording– Audio Input page
to make audio input settings for Sampling mode. These
settings apply only to Sampling mode.
Samples that you’ve assigned as a multisample can also be
processed by the insert effects, master effects, and total
effects, and then resampled.

Audio Inputs
You can also use audio from the analog, S/P DIF, and USB
audio inputs in Programs, Combinations, and Songs.
You can apply the insert effects, master effects, and total
effects to external audio sources and sample them, or use the
KRONOS as a 6-in (AUDIO INPUT 1-2, S/P DIF IN L, R,
and USB) 6-out effect processor.
You can also use an external mic input to control a vocoder
effect (093: Vocoder), and modulate the internal sounds. For
examples, see “Vocoder (Program mode)” on page 875 of
the Parameter Guide and “Rhythmic Vocoder (Combination
mode)” on page 876 of the Parameter Guide.
In Sequencer mode you can also use the effects when
recording external audio sources to audio tracks.
Use the P0– Audio Input/Sampling page of each mode to
make audio input settings. Alternatively, you can check Use
Global Setting and make these settings in the Global mode
P0: Basic Setup– Audio page. Normally you will leave Use
Global Setting checked. Uncheck this if you want programs
and combinations to use their own settings. For example
when writing the program as a vocoder effect program.
When effects are applied to the audio inputs, certain
effect types or parameter settings may cause oscillation to
occur. If this occurs, adjust the input level, output level,
or effect parameters. Please be aware of this particularly
when using an effect that has a high gain.
