- Building Stadium Sounds Part 1 - Program Mode. As the Musical Director for One Direction, Jon Shone has toured the world playing some of the world’s biggest gigs. In this video series, he gives an insight to how he uses the KORG KRONOS on the One Direction tours and a beginner’s guide to editing and creating sounds fit for a stadium tour. Maybe most of us will never get to play a stadium gig, but we can but dream.

I have just watched your tutorials of the Korg Kronos and have to say they are the best explanations of setting up sounds on the Kronos I have seen on
youtube .. I have a much better understanding now having watched your videos. Thank you so much
I love these tips and tricks from pros....i would love to see MORE of them.
thx man :)
even though i do not listen to 1D i must say i admire and respect your work alot being a musical director for such a big band :)
Glad to have been taught by him. Nice review Jon!
Nice job - totally useful. Look forward to your other videos.
Awesome sounds... Beautiful
By the time I learn everything they will replace the Kronos. I can see me doing all those menus while I have a stadium full of people waiting for me
Just a weekend aficionado here. Thanks for the tips. I'll definitely try them out on my rig.
That was brilliant and very useful stuff to know and try out thanks so much
Ian Rutter hope. j
thank you for the instruction
very helpful.
I got the first Kronos that came out , I love it , don't feel the need to upgrade , im still finding new things I can do. 😆
one of the better jobs at showing Kronos
Super!
Awesome video love it! I want an 88 key 2015 Korg Kronos too!
korg make awesome boards. everyone has a kronos!!
3:21 I can't believe that the screen is so soft...... has the kronos an old resistive screen??
From that angle it does look like a budget laserprinter's screen.
super infos
interesting... but you have to play the same way (same intensity) with both sounds to really hear a difference.
If you change the velocity bias you can brighten up the sound without playing harder. Try changing the velocity intensity as well that alters the volume. It explains it better on page 401 of the parameter guide.
Mine doesnt sound like that , through the headphones maybe but no way through a powered speaker
Awesome and gorgeous
Can i have one?
Really great! But I cannot find SYNTH AL ONE PRE in my Kronos 2 programs - how can I load it with your initial settings?
lol thats his edited program for the AL SYNTH sound he's made
Yo- this guy transposes his keyboard ...
The Kronos is so overdue for a generational update. Long in the tooth, and screen interface feeling dated. I can’t wait to get a 76-key Kronos 2
Many words short sound
Transpose? Why?
because he can
probably cant play all 12 keys and forgot to turn it off for the video
what were the initial patches tho
Look on the video at the Kronos screen. He even tells you. Kronos German Grand. D2
Don't like that half well learned nlp created script instead of real self experience description.
hey why not get a triton then. the piano sound on there is hella bright and energetic like
Freight Jackson triton is a great board but lets be honest. Kronos is light years ahead the triton
I know but it's how he eventually made the piano sound. sounds like a triton piano. But hell yeah, the kronos make the triton look like a standard keyboard.
Because this is not the only patch he's ever going to use
Triton was awesome, but Kronos is next level stuff
If there is one thing I have learned in the last 35 or so years of playing, it's that Synth Players in general will always *always* overprogram their patches for live shows... Doesn't matter if it's a 100-seat club, or a 100,000-seat stadium.... They make endless little tweaks, tweaks that they think sound *GREAT!* , but which the audience will *never* notice.
Making a synth "sound good" or "sound *BIG* " is what the sound engineer is for - just program the patch you like, and let your sound guys do their job...
you are obviously not a keys player then. The built in FX on the Kronos allow us to do all the pre work to make it sound like we want it to taste. A sound guy isn't responsible for making the Piano sound good. Its to make sure the mix is ok
@@finnyboy82 I started playing piano before I was 6 years old. Been playing piano/synths ever since.
And I know what a Kronos can do, I traded someone my Motif XF for her Kronos for a year not too long ago.
The near obsessive, minute adjustments, that so many players spend so much time on, that they think are making a patch sound "perfect", are, for the most part, mostly lost in the band mix + audience noise. I learned that the night of my second "real" gig, back in the late 80's. After spending days programming every synth in my rig + effects, the first thing my then girlfriend asked me after the show was, "Why did you change everything? Didn't sound anything like what you had."
And that was only a small show, in a smaller venue, ~thousand people maybe. Scale that up to Arena/Stadium size buildings/audiences, and all those tiny little tweaks end up being just for the player behind the monitors...
@@looneyburgmusic but he does mention and say that those tweaks are also for himself to hear with use of IEM's so he tweaks for personal preference to suit. I can see what he's trying to achieve by keeping everything as clean as possible so not to wash the keys out in the mix
This is nice and everything, but aside removing all of the mechanical sounds from the piano, a proper live sound engineer is going to do all of this shit for you at the board. Making all of this a moot point.
A sound engineer will not be able to control the mechanical noise ect of the Kronos. These are built into the Kronos so no matter what the engineer does from mixer these sounds will still come through F. O. H unless you do what John does here. Great info buddy cheers
James Finn You realize that the mechanical noises only encompasses like 2% of this entire video series, right? Way to ignore my real point.
Whats your real point then explain a little further if you can please?
@@projectgoatse dude, your sour attitude aint getting you nowhere.
