Kronos 3 Editor
Patch editor for Korg Kronos 3
$49.99
New in this version: a full combination editor. Edit all 16 timbres, their zones and effects live, plus a light theme and a 4x4 set-list view.
Kronos 3 Editor turns your iPad or iPhone into a hands-on sound editor, combination editor, effects editor, set-list editor and librarian for the Korg Kronos.
Connect over USB or network MIDI and every knob, envelope and switch is live: edits reach the unit instantly as realtime SysEx parameter changes, and panel moves on the Kronos echo straight back into the app. No file round-trips, no guesswork.
FLOW AND CLASSIC VIEWS
Flow lays each program out as a signal path: pick a stage (COMMON, OSC, PITCH, FILTER, AMP, MOD, FX) and that stage's key controls and live graphs are in front of you. Classic shows every parameter in pages and tabs, mirroring the unit's own screens.
ALL 9 SOUND ENGINES
HD-1 plus the eight EXi engines: AL-1, SGX-2, CX-3, STR-1, MOD-7, MS-20EX, PolysixEX and EP-1. Tens of thousands of parameters, decoded and editable.
COMBINATION EDITOR
Open any combination and edit all 16 timbres on a mixing-desk layout: program, status, Play/Mute, Solo, pan, volume and an activity meter per strip. Set each timbre's key and velocity zones on an 88-note keyboard that lights as you play, edit the combi's Vector, controllers and scale, and shape its whole effect chain live. A guarded Write stores it back to the instrument, verified byte for byte.
EFFECTS EDITOR
The whole effect chain on one screen: all 16 slots (12 insert, two master, two total, plus Common). Tweak any effect live, change an effect's type on the fly, and audition a chain by ear, all following the Kronos in real time.
SET-LIST EDITOR
Build and rearrange a whole show: assign any program, combination or song to a slot, reorder by dragging, and set every slot's name, colour, comment, volume, hold time and transpose. Switch between a full-width list and a 4x4 grid. The 9-band EQ and a live tempo move the unit as you drag. One guarded Write stores the set list to the instrument, verified byte for byte.
LIBRARIAN AND BROWSER
Pull the sound you are hearing from the unit with one tap. Browse every program and combination bank with category filters, favourites and search. Selecting a sound in the app switches the hardware; dialling one in on the hardware follows in the app.
DARK OR LIGHT
A sun/moon button switches the whole editor between a dark and a light theme.
WRITE WITH CONFIDENCE
Live edits go to the unit's edit buffer, which is volatile and reversible. Storing to a bank, combination or set-list slot is a separate, explicit step with a read-back and diff first, so you see exactly what will change before anything is committed to the instrument's memory.
SAVE AND SHARE
Save programs, combinations and set lists as standard .syx files into the Files app, load them back later, or move them to your computer.
REQUIREMENTS
A Korg Kronos 3 music workstation, connected via USB-MIDI (through a USB-C or Lightning MIDI interface) or a CoreMIDI network session. Enable MIDI System Exclusive on the unit (GLOBAL > MIDI > MIDI Filter > Enable Exclusive). The app runs without the instrument, but editing needs the hardware.

Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
Combinations are now fully editable, live on your Kronos.
COMBINATION EDITOR
Open any combination from the Prog/Combi browser and the whole window becomes a 16-timbre mixing desk:
- One strip per timbre: the program it plays by name, Internal / External / Off status, Play/Mute, Solo, a pan knob, a volume fader and its MIDI channel.
- Solo silences the other timbres on the instrument so you can hear one part alone, and never touches your stored Mute settings.
- An activity meter on every strip that lights as notes reach that timbre, following velocity, the fader and the timbre's zones.
- An 88-note keyboard along the bottom: drag the ends of a timbre's zone to set its key range, drag the bar below for its velocity range, and watch the keys light as you play.
- Everything a timbre needs: assign its program from the same browser, then set volume, pan, sends, transpose, detune, bend, delay, oscillator settings, and the full per-timbre MIDI filter and track EQ.
- The combi's own Vector joystick and envelope, controller assignments and scale, each on their own Common page.
- The full effect chain: the same 12 insert, two master and two total effect editor from the sound editor, now for the combination. Effect parameters and on/off move the Kronos in real time.
- A guarded Write stores the whole combination to a USER slot, verifies the instrument received it byte for byte, then the Kronos switches to that slot, exactly like storing on the unit itself. The header always shows unsaved edits, and Revert restores what is on the instrument.
ALSO NEW
- Light theme. A sun/moon button in the top bar switches the editor between dark and light. Dark stays the default.
- A wider browser. The Prog/Combi browser grows with the screen, so a whole bank fits without scrolling on iPad, with an X to close.
- Combination .syx files now open in the combination editor.
- A 4x4 set-list view. A List / 4x4 switch shows a set list's slots as fixed blocks of 16, like paging through it on the Kronos. The full-width list stays the default.
- Set list names are shown in full on their tiles, no longer clipped.
Requires a Korg Kronos 3 connected over USB or network MIDI.
