1. To change the auto power-off setting, press the
Change Setting button.
The Auto Power-Off Setting dialog box will appear, just as
if you’d selected the Global menu command described
above.
Auto power-off warning message
When the specified length of time has elapsed without any
user input on the KRONOS, a message will appear, warning
you that the auto power-off function is about to turn off the
power.
If you want to continue using the system, press the keyboard,
a button, or some part of the display such as the Extend
button. The Auto power-off function will be reset. If the
specified length of time again elapses with no user input, the
same message will appear again. You can also use the
Change Setting button to bring up the Auto Power-Off
Setting dialog, as described above.
Earlier models may not support Auto Power-Off
On KRONOS models which do not support Auto Power-Off,
the menu command and related dialogs will not appear.
Connections
Connections must be made with the power turned off.
Please be aware that careless operation may damage your
speaker system or cause malfunctions.
1. Analog audio output connections
Here’s how to connect the KRONOS to your analog amp or
mixer.
If you’re using a home stereo system, be aware that
playing at high volume may damage your speakers. Be
careful not to raise the volume excessively.
AUDIO OUTPUT (MAIN) L/MONO and R
These are the main outputs, accessed by setting Bus Select
to L/R. All of the factory sounds use these outputs, and the
Master and Total Effects are always routed here as well.
All of the KRONOS analog outputs use 1/4” balanced TRS
jacks. For best results, use balanced connections to your
audio system.
1. Connect the AUDIO OUTPUT (MAIN) L/MONO and
R outputs to the inputs of your amp or mixer.
If you’re using KRONOS in stereo, use both the (MAIN)
L/MONO and R jacks. If you’re using KRONOS in mono,
use only the (MAIN) L/MONO jack.
2. Use the MAIN VOLUME knob to adjust the volume.
The MAIN VOLUME knob affects only the main stereo
outputs and the headphones; it does not affect the individual
outputs, the S/P DIF output, or the USB output.
AUDIO OUTPUT (INDIVIDUAL) 1…4
These are 4 additional analog outputs, which can be used as
individual mono outputs, stereo pairs, or any combination of
the two. Almost any signal source can be routed to these
outputs, including:
• Each note in a Drum Kit
• Insert Effect outputs
• Individual Programs in a Combination or Song (or the
sum of the Program’s oscillators in Program mode)
• Audio tracks
• Audio inputs
You can use these to isolate or group together sounds for
recording, or for complex live performance setups.
1. Connect the (INDIVIDUAL) 1…4 outputs to the your
amp or mixer inputs.
2. Use the Bus Select parameters to send the desired
sounds, audio tracks, inputs, or effects to the
individual outputs, as either mono (1…4) or stereo
(1/2 and 3/4) signals.
If the signal is going through one or more insert effects, the
output is set at the last IFX in the chain, via the Bus Select
parameter on the P8-5 Insert FX page.
If a Program, Timbre, or Track is not going through any
insert effects, the output is set using the Bus Select
parameters on the P8-1 or 8-2 Routing page.
To assign audio inputs directly to outputs, use Bus Select
parameters in the P0– Audio Input (Sampling) page.
In Global mode, the Audio page L/R Bus Indiv. Assign
setting lets you mirror the MAIN stereo L/R output on any
pair of individual outputs. You can use this to create a
private monitoring setup in live and studio environments.
For more information, see “L/R Bus Indiv. Assign” on
page 771 of the Parameter Guide.
Note: The MAIN VOLUME knob doesn’t affect the volume
of the individual outputs.
Headphones
1. If you’re using headphones, connect them to the
KRONOS’ headphone jack.
2. Use the VOLUME slide to adjust the volume of the
headphones. The KRONOS’ headphone jack outputs
the same signal as the (MAIN) L/MONO and R jacks.
Tip: To monitor the signals from the individual outputs, use
an external mixer.
