Product Description

The Artists choice
A wealth of controls, a powerful touchscreen and an extensive collection of classic sounds— are just some of the reasons why KRONOS is both beloved and respected.

Nine Sound Engines & a Rich Sound Library
Covering everything from classics to unique sounds. The SSD capacity has been upgraded from 60GB (KRONOS2) to 128GB, enhancing presets and PCM sound sources.

• Modeling Synth: 128 sounds newly added. Improved new presets to increase usage opportunities for several sound engines have been added (STR-1, MOD-7, MS-20, Polysix and so on).
  
• PCM: 128 sounds newly added.
• “EXs22” (Una Corda Sound Removed from “EXs21”) added to Piano. This sound is well-regarded and used in models like Kronos SE, Nautilus, GS-1, GSX, and Poetry.
  
• “Tine EP I Early”, included in Nautilus and GS-X, added to E.Piano.
• Include newly created modern sounds using NAUTILUS, such as FM Electric piano sounds.

Reduced Preload Time 
Improved preload time from approximately 110 seconds in the previous model to less than half, enabling a much smoother operation start.

A Luxurious Appearance Unified in Black
The enclosure is finished in black, creating a cohesive appearance that complements acoustic instrument sounds, including piano.

Highly Visible and User-Friendly Touchscreen
The large 8-inch display among workstation products has improved touch responsiveness to be even more user-friendly.

Improvement in component performance
With the improvement in the performance of the mainboard, the cooling fan has been removed, leading to reduced power consumption and fan noise.
