The Return of a Cult Workstation, Faster and More Inspiring
At the request of musicians, the KRONOS returns with its iconic sound palette and accelerated system architecture. This generation adds new programs and combinations while maintaining the "all-in-one" spirit that made the series famous. A true nerve center for studio and stage, it combines in a single machine engines that, individually, could each constitute a dedicated instrument.For Whom and For What?
Designed for demanding keyboardists, from seasoned producers to live musicians, the Kronos 3 excels in pop, electro, techno, ambient, synthwave, or film scoring. Its robustness and SST make it a reliable live companion, while its 16/16 sequencer, sampling, and numerous effects ensure polished production in both home and professional studios.Technical specifications
