Hi Peter,

I have the Swam Flutes. I don't have the Kronos 2 but I do have some suggestions. I don't know how much you know about setting up a keyboard for a Swam instrument so some of this may be redundant. All of these are in the MIDI mode
1- select the standard keyboard configuration and set it as the default setting by clicking on the three dots to the right.
2-click on vibrato, then learn, and move you joystick up and down.
3-click on expressivity, then on vibrato rate, and move your joystick left and right
Does that work? See below.
4-If not then you have to assign each to a slider on your Kronos. That is one slider for vibrato and one for vibrato rate.
5-Assign the other parameters on the remaining sliders.
Depending on the song I assign the other parameters to sliders. I usually have growl and flutter tongue assigned. Sometimes breath noise and overblow. I usually set the pitch bend to 0.3 both up and down for wind instruments and 12 or 24 for brass instruments. That is so I can get the fall offs and doits.

"Can the Kronos Joystick have 4 assignments or just 2--namely can I have 1 CC assignment for Y-axis up and one for Y-axis down and likewise for X-axis Right and X-axis Left. It seems right now I can only have 2 because my vibrato works for Y-axis upward but does not work for Y-axis downward."

You don't need 4 assignments. When you Y-axis is in the center then there is no vibrato. When you move it up you get vibrato. Moving the joystick down will get you nothing as there is already no vibrato. The same for the X-axis for rate. If you use sliders when the slider is down (or up on some systems) there is no vibrato or rate. Moving the slider will increase the vibrato and/or rate. Personally I would use sliders but that is only my preference and yours may be different.

I hope this helps. If you need more help feel free to contact me.
