Program information
In the Prog P0: Play– Main page you can view the
following information about the selected program.
OSC Picture: This is a graphic that represents the
program’s oscillator.
OSC Oct: For a double oscillator or double drums, this
indicates “Oct” (the basic pitch of the oscillator).
SW1, SW2: This indicates the function that’s assigned
to the SW1/SW2 buttons, and the on/off state of the
buttons.
Realtime Controls – TONE CONTROLS/USER
CONTROLS/ARP CONTROLS:
This shows information about the functions of the
REALTIME CONTROLS knob that’s currently selected.
Use the SELECT button to choose the functions that
will be controlled by the knobs. For more information
about these functions, please see page 28.
EQ (Low, Mid[Hz], Mid, High): This shows the 3‐band
EQ settings. You can use the value controllers to edit
the values.
Effect Controls– IFX, MFX, TFX:
This shows the effects that are assigned. The KROME
provides insert effects 1–5, master effects 1 and 2, and a
total effect. For the master effects, you can edit the
return levels.
Velocity Meter:
This meter shows the note‐on velocity value.
The meter shows the note‐on velocity of the keyboard,
MIDI IN, and arpeggiator etc. (If multiple note‐on
messages are received simultaneously, the highest
velocity value is shown.)
Using Controllers
In addition to using the keyboard, the KROME lets you
control the sound by using the joystick, SW1 and SW2
buttons, knobs 1–4, damper pedal, and foot switch or
foot pedal.
These controls let you modify the tone, pitch, volume,
effects, etc. in realtime as you play.
Joystick
The joystick moves in four directions: left, right, up
(away from yourself), and down (towards yourself).
Each of the four directions can be used to control a
different function, such as modulating Program or
effects parameters. These assignments can be different
for every Program, but generally, they do the following:
Standard Joystick functions
For details, please see page 82.
Joystick Lock
This function lets you maintain the effect that had been
applied prior to releasing your hand from the joystick.
You can use the SW1/SW2 buttons or a foot switch
connected to the KROME to lock the current position
so that the effect will continue even after the joystick
returns to the center position. For details, please see
“Locking the Joystick” on page 25.
SW1, SW2
You can use these buttons to control program
parameters via AMS (Alternate Modulation), or effect
parameters via Dmod (Dynamic Modulation).
They can also transpose the keyboard by octaves, turn
portamento on/off, or to lock the position joystick.
Each button can work as either a Toggle or Momentary
button. In Toggle mode, the assigned function is
switched between on and off each time the button is
pressed. In Momentary mode, the assigned function is
active on only as long as you hold down the button.
In Program mode, you can check the assignments of
SW1 and SW2 on the Prog P0: Play– Main page.
For details, please see “Program information” on
page 24.
