What's new on Krome Planet ?

There are so many projects and things to do for this synth, that sometimes I need to ask for what people expect from their beloved synth, to make the good choice !!!

Kromatool W.I.P

Kromatool 0.7.0 is on the go, I've implemented a save function, but only on few fields in the META.IMG file.

Changes 0.7.0 :

Save function on Multisample General GUI : Multisample Name

Save function on Multisample Description GUI : Top Key, Original Key, etc.

Top Key, Original convert mapping help : 78 -> F#5

Tune bug correction


Kromatool Conversion difference

I would like some advises about the processing I've to apply on KSF samples in order to get the same result as Korg.

An image is better to understand what I want :


First you have the original 16 bits 44.1Khz sample
Second, you have my conversion 8 bits 44.1Khz sample
Third, you have what I need to do !

So what do you think ?

Future Sounds & Samples Packs

Many things to do for you ! 2 Packs with samples are being studied.

Choose your favorite, and give me feedback !

Donation Status

Many thanks to Pedro M. P. from Mexico for its generosity. Your donation will be invested in the development of the website and encourage me in the kromatool project.

But except Pedro, and in spite of my ask, the fact is that no body would give 5, 10, 20 $ in a FREE website...for its development.

The reason? People always think that, as it is now free, they do not have to contribute and it will continue as before...Read, Download and never participate.

So...what are the possibilities :

1. Giving me a big sponsor that will paid my online bills !

2. Stopping this website !

3. Asking again and waiting for your donation !

Choose your option !!!

Dance 80's and 90's Samples Pack...Soon!

STE-BOY / (stephenuk on korg forums) has made a great samples pack (and programs) for the Korg M3 :

"I have created an 80's and 90's dance set for my old Korg Triton LE and now converted them to my M3. Lots of rave and classic house samples, loops, vocals, rave, electro stabs and some classic 80's drum machines i.e Linn Drums, Linn LM1, Oberheim DMX Roland TR-909, TR707 etc. A total of 128 presets."

So, after asking him the authorization, I decided to convert them to the Krome format !

The original pack is more than 54 MB of samples so I've to process it before to fit 32 MB. (Before the krome convertion process, we can have a 32 MB KSC/KMP/KSF pack)

So that is a great challenge for me, but I will like it !

Just a little video to enjoy its job :

Krome OS 1.3 and Krome sound Packs

Krome OS 1.3 is out !

Korg has released a new version of the operating system for your Korg Krome.

Few bug are corrected but still no major function added...For example, many people are waiting for an export to MP3 or Wav function for their song...

I think that the krome is able to do such conversion...but please Korg, make our krome better by adding significant enhancement on this keyboard!!!

You can download all the operating system versions at kromeheaven HERE (you also have a video explaining how to update your synth) or directly on the Korg USA website.

Enjoy !

Kromeheaven Packs

Do not forget to download all of our (your !!!) sound packs in the sound pack section...

Kromatool news

I did not have time to continue the development but I think I've found new fields in the META.IMG file that controls some aspects of the sounds that I never touched before (constant value in my generated pack can make some sounds to saturate.)

Nevermind, I can make some more samples package lowering the samples before the pack generation.

Stay connected this week-end, I will try to make either a new PCG Best of or a sample pack!

Regards,

Cyph
