Didacticiels de Paul Duffey
Sudosonic est la société créée par Paul Duffey, spécialisée dans les guides vidéo. Depuis le premier guide vidéo produit pour le Korg Trinity au début des années 2000, Sudosonic a progressivement augmenté son catalogue de produits pour couvrir aujourd'hui une gamme étendue de synthétiseurs de chez Alesis, Roland, Yamaha et autres fabricants, et bien sûr, Korg.
Sudosonic offre donc un guide vidéo de 4 heures et 41 minutes sur le Kronos. Le coût de ce guide vidéo est de $69.95 et le contenu est disponible au format Blu-Ray (standard), DVD (sur demande) ou au téléchargement.

L'avis de Kronoscopie : à condition de comprendre suffisamment l'américain pour suivre, ce guide vidéo peut servir de point de départ aux utilisateurs de niveau débutant à celui d'intermédiaire. Il fait un grand tour d'horizon de toutes les fonctions du Kronos, ou presque (voir ci-dessous la liste complète). Sans rentrer dans les détails de manière approfondie, les 44 leçons sur 4 heures et 41 minutes vont déjà armer le nouveau Kronossien, qui saura alors se servir des différents aspects de sa machine. Dommage qu'il n'y ait pas quelques sections s'adressant aux utilisateurs chevronnés, ce qui aurait rendu l'achat de ce DVD presque indispensable pour tous. Néanmoins le travail de Paul Duffey mérite un coup d'oeil, même malgré l'existence du guide officiel Korg présenté par Michel Deuchst et consultable sur ce site.
