Main Features

New realms of sound for the keyboard
player and the musical creator

• The KROME’s EDS-X (Enhanced Definition
Synthesis-eXpanded) is a newly designed sound
engine that delivers the synthesis, modulation,
effect functionality and quality of the EDS sound
engine acclaimed by professionals, while
additionally allowing more than ten times as much
PCM sound data to be controlled.

• Voicing technology developed for the KRONOS has
been lavishly applied, giving you a total of 4GB of
high-quality PCM data that includes long stereo
samples captured for each key. From the sound’s
attack to its decay, every detail has been carefully
designed for subtle and dynamic expressive power.
The emotion in your fingertips will be faithfully
transmitted to your listeners via this wide array of
sounds: acoustic pianos, electric pianos, organs,
wind instruments, synths, and drums.

Effects

• The KROME contains 193 different types of effects,
ranging from chorus, delay, reverb, overdrive, and
simulations of vintage effects and amps, each
boasting professional-level quality and flexibility.
Effect Presets let you easily store and recall all of
the settings for an individual effect.

• You can use up to 8 of these effects simultaneously,
with 5 Insert Effects, 2 Master Effects (for reverb
sends, for instance), and 1 Total Effects (for stereo
bus processing). Each program provides a three­band EQ, letting you use up to sixteen such EQs in
each combination or song. These settings can be
made individually for each program, combination,
and song.

• The master effects and total effect can be turned
on/off from the front panel.

Dual polyphonic arpeggiators

In addition to the traditional arpeggio patterns of the
past, these arpeggiators can generate guitar or bass
riffs as well as drum patterns. They can also be used as
part of the sound designing process to create pads,
synth sounds, and sound effects that include a subtle
sense of movement. In Combination mode and
Sequencer mode, you can use two arpeggiators
simultaneously.

There are 960 user arpeggio patterns, giving you
amazing potential for powerful performances.

Original patterns can be created quickly and easily by
editing patterns in the piano roll screen.

Main Features

Drum track patterns

The drum track is a built-in drum machine function
that uses the KROME’s high-quality drum sounds.

There are 710 patterns.

Keyboard and controllers for richly
expressive performances

• The KROME EX 61 and 73 feature a Semi-Weighted
Keyboard that provides a great-feeling way to play
everything from piano sounds to synthesizer
sounds.
The KROME EX 88 features a NH (Natural
Weighted Hammer Action) keyboard that is
especially advantageous when you’re playing
sounds that allow subtle nuances of expression
such as piano and electric piano.

• In addition to the joystick, tonal changes can be
controlled by buttons (SW1, 2) where you can
assign functions such as octave shift or joystick
lock, and realtime controllers that you can use to
adjust cutoff, resonance, or effects while you play,
making your performances even more expressive.

• Three jacks where you can connect a damper pedal,
foot switch, and foot pedal are provided. These
allow you to use your foot to adjust the volume,
control the effects, or switch sounds.

Sequencer for music production or
performance

The internal sequencer provides 16 MIDI tracks and
one master track. There’s a full complement of
functionality for music production and performance,
including Auto Song Setup that lets you start
producing a song the moment inspiration strikes,
template songs, RPPR, and cue lists.

You can edit tracks and patterns in the track view or in
a piano roll screen.

SMF data can also be imported or exported, allowing
smooth integration with another platform such as your
computer.

Computer connection via USB
SD card slot

You can connect the KROME to your computer via
USB for easy transfer of MIDI data. You can also use an
SD card (commercially available) to easily manage the
KROME’s file data.

Connecting the keyboard and turning the power on

AC adapter connections

Turning the power on

Note: Check the following before you turn the power
on.

• Make sure that you’re using an AC outlet that
supplies the correct voltage for your unit.

• Use only the included AC adapter.

• Turn the KROME’s front panel VOLUME knob all
the way to the left to minimize the volume.

• Make sure that the KROME’s power is off.

• If you’re connecting to an external output device

Here’s how to connect the power.

1. Connect the included AC adapter’s DC plug to the
AC adapter connector located on the KROME’s
rear panel.

Plug the power cord into an AC outlet.
Connect the power cord to the AC adapter.
To prevent the DC plug from being disconnected

accidentally, fasten the cable around the KROME’s
cable hook.

2. Connect the KROME’s AUDIO OUTPUT
L/MONO and R jacks to your mixer or powered
monitor speakers.

• If you’re monitoring through headphones, connect

headphone jack will output the same signal as the
stereo output (AUDIO OUTPUT L/MONO and R).

3. Turn on the power by pressing the power switch
located on the rear panel of the KROME.

If the auto power-off function is enabled, a
message will appear at start-up, informing you of
the time until the power will turn off

auto power-off is not enabled; the power will not
turn off automatically. (See “The auto power-off
function” on page 9.)

4. Power-on your external output devices, and adjust
their volume appropriately.

5. While playing the keyboard, gradually turn the
VOLUME knob toward the right to adjust the
volume.

Turning the power off

When you’ve finished using the KROME, turn off the
power by pressing the power switch that’s located on
the rear panel of the KROME.

When you turn off the power, any program,
combination, or global settings you may have
edited will return to its original state. If you want
to keep the results of your editing, you must save
(write) the edited settings.
In the same way, the song data will also be lost
when you turn off the power. If you want to use
the song data again later, you must save it before
you turn off the power, and then load it again
when desired. (See “Saving your edits” on
page 20.)

If the KROME’s auto power-off function is
enabled, the power will automatically turn off
after a certain length of time has elapsed without
any user input. This automatic power-off will also
cause all unsaved data to be lost.

If the power is turned off while data is being
written to the internal memory, the data in the
internal memory may be damaged. Never turn off
the power while any process is being executed.
While processing is occurring, the following
message will appear:
“Now writing into internal memory”

Turning the power off

Changing the auto power-off setting

Changing the settings in the start-up dialog box

edited settings, you must save them before the
power turns off.

2. Press the popup button and select the desired time
for auto power-off to occur. If you don’t want the
power to turn off automatically, choose Disabled.

Note: If this dialog box does not appear immediately
after start-up, the auto power-off function is set to
Disabled; the power will not turn off automatically.

Note: You can also change the auto power-off setting
during operation (see page 16 of the Operation Guide).

Auto power-off warning message

When the specified time has elapsed, a message will
warn you that the auto power-off function is about to
turn off the power.

If you want to continue using the KROME, press the
keyboard, a button, or the display. Auto power-off will
be reset, and the same message will appear when the

Selecting modes

The KROME provides a large number of functions,
such as playing or editing programs and combinations,
recording and playing back songs, and managing
media. These functions are grouped into “modes.” The
KROME has five modes. To access a mode, press the
corresponding mode button (See page 6).

Program mode

Programs are the basic sounds of the KROME.
In Program mode, you can:

• Select and play Programs.

• Use one arpeggiator in your performance.

• Play back Drum Track patterns while you perform
using a Program.

•Edit Programs
You can use the realtime controls and the Tone
Adjust function to easily edit the program.
You can adjust the parameters and settings of the
oscillators, filters, amps, EGs, LFOs, effects,
arpeggiator, drum track, etc.
You can use up to five insert effects, two master
effects, and one total effect.
Plus, you can create drum programs using drum
kits (as created in Global mode).

Combination mode

Combinations are sets of up to 16 programs that can be
played simultaneously, letting you create sounds that
are more complex than a single Program. In
Combination mode, you can:

• Select and play Combinations.

• Use multiple timbres to play arpeggio patterns
generated by two arpeggiators.

• Use one or more timbres to play back the patterns
in the drum track.

• Use the KROME as a 16-part multitimbral tone
generator.

• Edit Combinations
You can use the tone adjust function to easily edit
the program of each timbre.
You can assign Programs to each of the 16 Timbres,
each with separate volume, pan, EQ, and keyboard
and velocity zones; adjust settings for effects,
arpeggiator and the drum track.
Plus, you can use up to five insert effects, two
master effects, and one total effect.

Sequencer mode

Sequencer mode lets you record, playback, and edit
MIDI tracks. You can:

• Use the sixteen-track MIDI sequencer to record and
play back songs.
Record a single MIDI track at a time, or record as
many as all sixteen tracks simultaneously. You can
also record exclusive messages.

• Use multiple tracks to record and play back
performances generated by two arpeggiators.

• Use one or more tracks to play back the patterns in
the drum track.

• Edit songs.

• Use the KROME as a 16-track multi-timbral sound
module.

• GM/GM2 playback is also supported.

• Use the Tone Adjust function to easily edit the
program of each track.

• Use up to five insert effects, two master effects, and
one total effect.

• Record patterns and assign them to individual
keys, using RPPR (Realtime Pattern
Play/Recording).

• Create a Cue List that will play back multiple songs
in the order that you specify. You can also combine
these songs into a single song.

• Create user Drum Track patterns.

Global mode

Global mode lets you adjust overall settings for the
entire KROME, and edit drum kits and arpeggio
patterns. In Global mode, you can:

• Adjust settings that affect the entire KROME, such
as master tune and the global MIDI channel.

• Create user scales.

• Create drum kits using drumsamples.

• Create user arpeggio patterns.

• Rename program and combination categories.

Using controllers to modify
the sound

Joystick, SW1 and SW2

The joystick (see page 6) and SW1/SW2 (see page 6)
located on the left side of the KROME’s front panel are
controllers for you to use while performing. You can
use these controllers to modify the sound.

The effect produced by each controller will differ for
each Program or Combination. In addition to the
typical functions, the controllers in some cases might
have the effect of emphasizing individual sounds, or
might apply a combination of several effects. So try
them all out to see what each controller does for the
selected sound.

Standard Joystick functions

Move the joystick… Normally controls…

Left Pitch bend down

Right Pitch bend up

Forwards (away from yourself) Vibrato

Backwards (towards yourself) Filter LFO (wah)

Realtime controls

The realtime controllers (see page 6) located on the left
side of the front panel are used to control the sound
while playing a program or combination, or for simple
sound editing. They are also used to control the
arpeggiator.

1. Press the SELECT button to choose the functions
that knobs 1–4 will control (the corresponding
LED will light up).

The knobs will control the sound if TONE or USER are
selected, or the arpeggiator if ARP is selected.

2. Turn knobs 1–4, and notice how the sound, effects,
or arpeggio pattern changes.

When you turn a knob, a popup will appear on the display,
indicating the name of the controller and its value.

• If SELECT TONE is selected, the knobs will control
the filter cutoff, filter resonance, filter EG intensity,
and filter EG release time respectively.

• If SELECT USER is selected, knobs 1–4 will control
a wide variety of parameters individually assigned
by each program or combination. In many (but not
all) cases, knobs 1 and 2 will control synth
parameters, knob 3 will control the depth of a
modulation effect such as chorus, and knob 4 will
control reverb depth.

• For details on SELECT ARP, refer to the next

Using Tone Adjust

The KROME’s Tone Adjust function assigns program
parameters that are useful for editing with buttons and
sliders in the display. You can use these to edit the
sound efficiently.

1. Access the Program mode P0: Play– Tone Adjust
page. Press the PROG button, and then the Tone
Adjust tab.

2. Use the sliders and buttons in the display to make
adjustments. You can also use the VALUE

The parameters assigned to the sliders and knobs will
differ depending on the program or combination. (For
some sounds, the result may be difficult to notice.)

For example, the “Pitch Stre.” slider produces rich
tonal changes and variations without impairing the
character of the original sound. “1: F lfo IA” controls
wah, “1: lfo IA” controls vibrato, and “1: Drive” can
subtly fatten the sound or apply extreme distortion.

“F/A EG A,” “F/A EG D,” “F/A EG S,” and “F/A EG R”
respectively control the attack time, decay time, sustain
level, and release time of the filter and amp EGs.

If you turn the 1: Trsp button on, the oscillator 1
transposition will be modified by the value shown
below the button, raising or lowering the pitch.

Changing the program or volume
balance of the timbres

Up to sixteen programs can be assigned to a
combination, allowing you to produce dense and rich
textures.

1. In Combination mode, press the Category Select
popup button; then from tab 12 “Bass Splits,”
choose C059: Bass & Piano. The category Bass
Splits contains split-type combinations where the
lower range of the keyboard plays a bass sound
and the upper range plays a different sound.

Bass & Piano assigns an acoustic piano to timbre 1 and
an acoustic bass to timbres 2 and 3.

2. Let’s try changing the program assignment so that
an organ is played instead of the piano.

Press the timbre 1 Category/Timbre Program popup
button to access the list.

At the left side of the list, press the 01 Organ tab, and
then select a program from the list. Press the OK

Editing MIDI

You can modify your performance after recording, if
you wish. For instance, you can erase misplayed notes,
or correct their pitch and timing.

Correcting the timing

Timing correction is done through Quantization. This
takes the notes you played and lines them up to the
nearest beat or fraction of a beat, based on the
resolution you select. It can also be used to add a
“swing” feel. Let’s try quantizing the MIDI track we
just recorded.

1. Press the PAGE button; then in Page Select, press
P6 Track Edit. Then press the Track Edit tab to
access the P6: Track Edit– Track Edit page.

This page includes a graphic which shows each track
in the sequence. The small rectangles represent
measures which contain performance data.

2. Select MIDI Track 01 from the popup above the
graphic.

3. Using the “From Measure” and “To End of
Measure” parameters at the bottom of the display,
set the range of measures that you wish to modify.
For now, set “From” to 001, and “To End” to 064.

4. Press the menu command button, and choose
“Quantize.”

The Quantize dialog appears.

5. Set the Resolution to the desired rhythmic value.

As a general rule, choose the shortest note-value used
in the recorded performance.

6. Press the OK button to quantize the selected data.

If the result was different from what you had expected,
press the COMPARE button to restore the song to the
original state before the quantization was applied.
Experiment with different Resolutions, set the
Intensity to less than 100% in order to preserve some
of the natural feel, or raise the Swing value to create a
shuffle or swing feel.

You can also apply quantization during recording,
using the REC Resolution parameter at the top of the
P0 page. Choose the desired resolution, and
quantization will be applied as you record.

Editing MIDI

Correcting or adding notes

You can edit your performance data by moving or
erasing notes, modifying a note’s duration or strength,
or adding notes.

It’s convenient to use Track View editing when you
want to erase, move, or copy data in units of entire
tracks or measures.

1. (Press the PAGE button; then in Page Select, press
P6: Track Edit.) Then press the Track View tab to
access the P6: Track Edit– Track View page.

2. Using the tools, specify the start and end measures
to select the edit region.

3. Use the tools to move, copy, or erase data.

For details, see page 68 of the Operation Guide.

It’s convenient to use piano roll editing when you want
to edit individual notes in detail.

Template songs

Template songs contain sounds and effects that are
suitable for a specific musical style, so you can
immediately get started creating a song simply by
selecting an appropriate template. In addition to the
preset templates, you can create your own original
template songs containing your frequently-used
sounds.

The sixteen preset template songs (P00–P15) contain
track parameter settings such as program, volume, and
pan, as well as effect, arpeggiator, track parameter, and
tempo settings.

Note that Template Songs do not include MIDI data for
song tracks and patterns, and so on.

1. In the Sequencer P0: Play/REC page, press the
menu command button and select the Load

preset pattern, you can instantly set up a drum track to
match the Template Song.

8. To load the pattern, press the OK button.

After the pattern is loaded, the Measure will count up
automatically. You can then copy another pattern if
desired. For instance, you can use different patterns
one after the other to build up a song, with different
patterns for verse, chorus, and bridge.

After you’ve finished adding patterns, press the Exit
button, and you’re done!

For details on how to record, see “Adding another
track” on page 16.

2. In the From field, choose the Template Song that
you want to load.

3. Check the “Copy Pattern to Track too?” check-box.

When this box is checked, a dialog box for copying a
pattern will automatically appear after Load Template
Song is complete.

If this is not checked, only the selected Template Song
will be loaded.

4. Press the OK button to load the template song, or
press the Cancel button to exit without making
changes.

When you press OK, the Template Song’s settings will
be copied into the current Song.

If Copy Pattern to Track too? was checked in step 3,
the Copy Pattern to Track dialog box will appear.

5. Use the Bank (User or Preset) and Pattern popups
to select a pattern to copy.

Using effects

You have a choice of 193 different digital effects.
The KROME’s effect section consists of five insert

effects, two master effects, one total effect, and a mixer
that controls the routing between these effect
processors. Each of these provides stereo input and
output.

You can freely control the effects via dynamic
modulation (Dmod), which lets you use the KROME’s
controllers to control the effects in realtime while you
perform, as well as synchronize different types of
modulation effects via the common LFO, or use
MIDI/Tempo Sync to produce tempo-synchronized
effects.

Routing and effect settings

You’ll use routing to specify the effects to which the
sound will be sent.

Here’s an example of these settings for a song.

1. Select the insert effects that you want to use.
Adjust these settings in the Seq P8: Routing/IFX–
Insert FX Setup page.

Using effects

3. “Send1” and “Send2” specify the send levels to
the master effect for each track. “Send1”
corresponds to MFX1, and “Send2” corresponds to
MFX2.

In this page, “Send1” and “Send2” can be selected only
if “Bus (IFX/Output) Select” is set to L/R or Off.

If “Bus (IFX/Output) Select” is set to IFX1–5, the send
levels are specified by “Send1” and “Send2” after the
signal has passed through the insert effects (P8:
Routing/IFX– Insert FX Setup page).

4. Seq P9: MFX/TFX/LFO– Routing page. Here you
can select the master effects and the total effect
that will be used. This page also shows the signal
flow.

2. Specify the effect where the output of each track
will be sent. In the Seq P8: Routing/IFX– Routing
T01–08 page, use “Bus (IFX/Output) Select” to
adjust these settings. For example if you want the
output of track 2 to be the input to insert effect 3,
assign the track 2 “Bus (IFX/Output) Select” to
IFX3.

The upper part of the screen shows the status of the
routing, insert effects, and chain settings. In this
example, T01 (track 1) is assigned to DKit, and uses
IFX1 and 2. This uses the settings of the drum kit. T02
is connected to IFX3, and T04 is chain-connected to
IFX4 and IFX5.

Saving and loading data

Saving and loading data

Saving your edits

2. Once again press the WRITE button to perform the
Write operation. (You can also execute by pressing
the OK button or the ENTER button.)

Understanding Write and Save

There are two ways to store your work on the KROME:
Write and Save.

Note: If you turn off the power before you Write or
Save, the data you modified will be lost. Be sure to save
important data to internal memory or an SD card.

“Writing” refers to saving data to the internal memory
of the KROME itself. You can use the Write operation
for programs, combinations, arpeggio patterns, drum
kits, and global settings.

Note: Song data cannot be written to internal memory
(see “Saving data on the KROME” on page 113 of the
Operation Guide).

“Saving” refers to saving data on an SD card. You can
use the Save operation to save the song data that
cannot be written to internal memory as well as the
data that can be written to internal memory.

Note: The Save operation allows you to save individual
items of data as well as all of the KROME’s data
together. By saving the entire set of sound data (i.e.,
programs and combinations), global settings, and
sequencer song data, you can manage the entire
current state of the KROME as a single set of data. This
is a useful way to manage your settings for separate
projects or live performances.

Writing

Writing Programs

Here’s how to write an edited Program to internal
memory.

1. Press the WRITE button.

A dialog box will appear. Here you have the option of
saving the data to a different number, or of changing
the program name or category. If you want to simply
overwrite the existing data without making any of
these changes, proceed to step 2.

• Changing the program name:
Press the “T” button to access the text edit dialog

box.
Use the on-screen keyboard to enter a name, and

then press the OK button to return to the previous
dialog box.

• Changing the category and sub-category:
Press the Category or Sub Category popup button,

and choose the desired category from the list. You
will return to the previous dialog box.

• Specifying the writing-destination bank and
number:

Press the Program popup button, use the tabs to
select a bank, and select a number from the list.

Press the OK button to return to the previous dialog
box.

Writing other data

To write a combination, select the combination that
you want to write, and write it just as you did for a
program. Other data such as arpeggio patterns are
written in the corresponding page. For details, see
page 113 of the Operation Guide.

Note: As an alternative to using the WRITE button, you
can also use the Write command in the menu. Effect
presets can only be written by using the Write
command.

Saving and loading

Saving data to an SD card

Data you’ve created or edited on the KROME can be
saved to an SD card. The KROME can handle several
types of files and data, but here we’ll explain two
common types of file: .PCG files and .SNG files.

PCG stands for “Program, Combination, and Global.”
These files can also include user Arpeggio patterns,
Drum Kits, and user Drum Track.

SNG stands for “Song.” These files store all of the
Songs from Sequencer mode.

Saving programs and songs together

When saving a song that you created using edited
programs or rearranged programs, you can save the
program data along with the song data.

1. Insert your SD card into the SD card slot.

With the label of the media facing upward, insert the
connector end of the card into the SD card slot, and
press it in until it clicks into place.

2. Press the MEDIA button to enter Media mode (the
LED will light up).

3. Press the Save tab to access the Media- Save page.

4. Select the directory where you want to save the
data.

Press the Open button to move to a lower level, or
press the Up button to move to an upper level.

To create a new directory, move to the level where you
want to create the directory, and use the Create

Directory menu command on the Media–Utility page.

5. On the Media–Save page, press the menu
command button to open the menu, and select the
Save All command.

This command will save a set of .PCG and .SNG files
all at once.

Saving and loading

A dialog box will appear.

6. Press the text edit button (“T”) and enter a name
for the files.

All of the files will share the same name, with different
suffixes to show the data type (.PCG, .SNG).

7. Press the OK button to Save the data to the SD
card.

When the save is complete, the system returns to the
Save page, and the display will show the resulting
file(s). The amount of time required will depend on the
amount of data being saved.

Note: You can use the various “Selection” buttons in the
dialog box to specify the bank used for saving;
however when saving a song, you should also save the
programs and drum kits used by the song together
with it.

Similarly when saving a combination, you should save
the programs and drum kits used by the combination
together with it.

A dialog box will appear, containing a number of
options.

6. Select the “Load [filename].PCG too” check box.

When these boxes are checked, the system looks for
.PCG file with the same name as the main .SNG file.

7. Use “Select .SNG Allocation” to specify how the
Songs will be loaded, and whether or not existing
Songs will be erased.

Append loads the Songs into the first free Song

numbers following the song(s) which are already in
memory.

Clear will erase all songs from internal memory, and
load the Songs into the exact numbers from which they
were saved.

8. Press the OK button to load the data.

Never turn off the power or remove the SD card
while data is being loaded or saved.

When loading Programs, Combinations, Songs,
Drum Kits, or user Arpeggio patterns, make sure
that the Global Basic Setup page’s Memory Protect
settings are turned off (unchecked). If they are on,
you won’t be able to load the data.

Saving a song

In Sequencer mode, you can press the WRITE button to
save the .SNG file to your SD card.

When the dialog box appears, press the WRITE button
once again to execute the Save operation.

Loading data

You can load the entire contents of the memory at once,
including sound data (Programs, Combinations, etc.),
and Songs data. To do so:

1. Insert the SD card containing the file you want to
load into the SD card slot.

With the label of the media facing upward, insert the
connector end of the card into the SD card slot, and
press it in until it clicks into place.

2. Press the MEDIA button to enter Media mode (the
LED will light up).

3. Press the Load tab to access the Media- Load page.

4. Navigate to the directory that contains the file you
want to load, and select the .SNG file.

Select a directory (shown as a folder icon) and press
the Open button to move to a lower level, or press the
Up button to move to a higher level.

The selected .SNG file will be highlighted.

5. Press the red Load button at the bottom of the
page.

(You can also use the Load Selected menu command.)
