Obviously, Kronos has a lot of cheerleaders on a Kronos forum. Without more info from you, this is really subjective to how each feels and sounds to you. I will be using it mainly for the grand piano sounds 70% of the time - the other sounds 30% of the time. Trying to decide between the Kronos and the Montage 8.

Therefore this website is doing not so many updates anymore. The Nautilus performs well in my coverbands. I don’t miss the Karma function, the arpeggiator is quite good. I sold my Korg Kronos (2015) version and bought a Nautilus. Update: the Kronos problem (error) came back. Please be advised, this is just my opinion, make you decisions at your own risk 🙂 If you don’t care about getting a second hand workstation then I’d go for the second hand Kronos. What about price: a new Kronos still costs a lot, but then you have warranty (which is important, because as you know I’ve had trouble with my Kronos 2, I fixed the problem, but it wasn’t an easy fix), so if you want new and money is a thing: buy Nautilus. The Nautilus just doesn’t blow the Kronos out of the water. My impression is that the Nautilus is definitely not a new flagship but and in-between synth workstation, just like the Korg Krome, but much better than the Krome. I’ve listened to both engines and to me the sound (apart from KARMA / Arps) is quite the same for most of the time. Also, the new Operating System of the Nautilus is still 32-bit, which means that no more than 4GB of memory can be addressed, so 1GB is reserved for the Kronos system, 1GB is not used (If I’m correct) and 2GB is available for you to use for samples and other things you like to save like sequences etc. Yes the Kronos has a bigger screen, but you can clearly see that there has been a lot of development on the interface of the Nautilus.
YAMAHA MONTAGE VS KORG KRONOS SOFTWARE
Compare it with the KARMA software for the Yamaha Motif series and the Motif’s built-in arpeggiator. Personally, I think KARMA sounds a lot better than the current state of the Nautilus arpeggiator.
YAMAHA MONTAGE VS KORG KRONOS FULL
It is an advanced technology to give a workstation full musical accompaniment that goes far beyond an arpeggiator or keyboard accompaniment. Karma was created in collaboration between Korg and Karma-Lab.
The Kronos has KARMA, KARMA stands for Kay Algorithmic Realtime Music Architecture. You could assign a tremolo on aftertouch for a classical guitar. Like, you hit the bottom and then press a little deeper. It’s when you press a key fully down and then press even more. If you are such a person then you should go for the Nautilus.Īftertouch, yeah, some people use it a lot to get an additional way of expression and many other people don’t even know what it is. I noticed that many people actually want a 73-key workstation that doesn’t have weighted keys.
Searching the internet I came across very little information about the difference between the 2 workstations. The reason for this was that my Korg Kronos had a problem: every so often it would hang and give an error.Īfter trying some possible fixes I was done and wanted either a new Kronos or a Nautilus. I too have been thinking about buying a Korg Nautilus.
As the new Nautilus workstation becomes more and more available, people are wondering whether it is worth buying a Nautilus or a new or used Kronos.
