About the audio recorder
The KROSS provides a high-quality digital audio recorder
that records on an SD card that you insert into the SD card
slot. In addition to recording the sound of what you play on
the keyboard or play back from the sequencer, the audio
recorder can also record an external audio input such as a
mic, guitar, or audio player that’s connected to the KROSS.
You can also overdub as many times as you like by playing
back the recorded audio while recording your KROSS
performance or external audio input. There’s also an Undo
function that lets you return to the state prior to the previous
take, and re-record from there. These functions let you use
the audio recorder like a simple multi-track audio recorder.
The recorded audio data is saved on the SD card as a WAVE
file (48 kHz, 16-bit), so you can use it with your computer.
You can also import a WAVE file into the audio recorder and
play it back.
The audio recorder gives you an easy way to record your
phrases and ideas anytime you’re playing, regardless of the
sound or mode (except for Disk mode).
Recording time and data size
The maximum time for one song is three hours. The actual
total time for a multi-track recording will depend on the free
capacity of the SD card.
A single pass of recording will store approximately 11 MB
of data per minute. This means that 1 GB allows you to
record approximately 90 minutes. When you perform multi-
track recording, additional data will be stored on the SD card
according to the length of the recording.
Note: Recording times are approximate. Since song
management data is also stored, the actual recordable time
may be shorter depending on the number of songs.
* The effects designed for use with external audio can be used
simultaneously with the insert/master effect provided for
programs etc. (see page 65)
