Kross 288 MB Digital Synthesizer, the long-awaited successor of the Kross, is a compact, portable workstation with a huge range of sounds. While maintaining its identity as ultra-lightweight, compact, and capable of running on batteries, this new model dramatically enhances Kross’s sounds and functionality. In addition to a total of more than a thousand preset sounds, expansion PCM memory has been newly added. Also new is a pad sampler that allows full-fledged sampling, and USB audio/MIDI interface functionality. The color scheme is even more stylish, and the user interface allows intuitive operation even by beginners.Keys, Drums, Sequences, Sampling, and a Performance PowerhouseThe 88-key model of the all-in-one Kross 2 synthesizer is now available in a super matte black rubberized finish. Packed with all the immediacy and huge sound of the Kross 2, it features an additional expansion that adds programs including a beautifully resonant acoustic piano. Designed to be your main keyboard, Kross 2 features everything a performer needs, far exceeding its class in power and usability. Rubberized Matte Black Finish is Sleek and Uniquely DurableThe Kross 2-88-MB features a great-feeling rubberized finish in super matte black, simultaneously sleek and elegant, but also durable and comfortable. Rich sounds powered by added PCM A diverse array of more than 1,000 preset sounds has been supplemented by additional PCM with 128 programs that include piano and electric piano, and also fulfill your needs for cutting-edge EDM with synth and drum sounds plus 27 drum track patterns. Piano Weight Keybed for Natural PerformanceThe Kross 2-88-MB features Korg’s NH (Natural Weighted Hammer Action) keybed. The NH keybed has a realistic and comfortable piano-style hammer, with a heavier feel in the lower register and a touch that becomes lighter as you move into the high register, allowing the subtle nuances of your fingertips to show through in your performance.
The FA sound engine is fully compatible with the large, growing collection of INTEGRA-7 synth patches available as free downloads from Roland’s Axial sound library site. It’s even possible to expand the onboard sound set with free wave sound expansion collections, which you can also get at the Axial site.
