This video shows the rppr feature of the Kronos..
Its a loop player.
You can trigger loops with a dedicated part of the keyboard..
Combine it with arps(karma) and a drum beat..



Butin the end, this is nothing more then trying to mimic what arranger keyboards can do much better..

Thanx for the demo..sounds very DJish style,............
which they do all the time using launch pads & a keyboard......
slowly gimmick after gimmick we drift away from actual real traditional playing KB anymore
and just become "electronic operators" buy hey that's the wave of the future if your willing to commit to change to create music.

"Wave of the future" grin Not mine!!!! Fixed arpeggios and fake loops... absolutely trash to me shocked

There is and always be a place for even a little musical talent..

The no musical talent that you posted verifies my statement. smile

I can sit with a Rhodes and a drum machine... and a fakebook.... and play for 4 or 5 hours, non stop.. Real music will not pass us by wink

It's what paint by numbers is to artwork. There's a modest amount of talent used, but someone else has done most of the creative thinking. It can be fun for someone who is mechanically inclined, but somewhat artistically challenged. If a DJ can be called a "turntabel-ists" I guess you can call these guys "pad-ists?"
