KORG Kaossilator and Mini-KP Kaoss Pad

[AcidStarExplosion]

interesting tune, but the sound quality might be better. still - a good song

[zeppelo]

Can't hear a fucking thing.... next time try to connect those machine to an audio interface instead of using that noisy external mic..... it's all hims and hiss.... too bad

[KungFuChess]

yo i would sell those things and use the cash for music lessons

[bigbadron]

@KungFuChess or maybe use the money buy an iPad like a real musician. am i right guy?

[KungFuChess]

@bigbadron ya lots of ppl make music on computers. ipad just another computer

[THEDANCINDJTRIVIAL]

@bigbadron ipads r gey

[djyucatec]

do you call this experiment music? i call it live lsd....very bad trip.....

[superpizzaboy7]

love it man!! its SUPER FUCKING AWESOME!!!

[mishmoshable]

very nice sounds

[N02505]

nice video !

[turntabliss]

buy the one on the left its better! i bought the red one and its just effects,the yellow one a sampler and a wicked tool!!! just got to get the money to buy it!!!

[mjwaagner]

Thinking of buying the Mini KP (one to the right)

Wanted to know if it could only edit sounds, not just effect them?

And can you loop with it?

[turntabliss]

@mjwaagner no loops just sfx and some noises!!! the yellow pads better for samplin and makin beats the red is for transforming the sound!!! i have the red korg mini, 5/5 the yellow ones better!!!

[fitagorass]

fucking ass holeee

[DJRocketnerd]

Keep workin' at it. Great synth, great effects unit.

[Kefirro87]

breakcore szmatoooooo ;)

[AllectoCerebrum]

The music isn't bad, its just not that great

[robinheil]

i for one like the music. i guess i'm the only one

[BenG9C9]

@bigbadron On the Kaossilator, are you using a beat that you made or the pre-packed ones?

[cholo11]

What's the difference between those two?

[BenG9C9]

@cholo11 The Kaossilator is a device that creates and loops sound. The Mini KP has a bunch of tools to modify the sound that it receives into its (RCA) input.

[technikfreak2009]

what is better for a dj?

[dgsv2]

@technikfreak2009 kaoss pad prob =)

[stee1face]

This is great. Can you transfer this sounds to a Mac and how?

[silasbonneau]

freaking awesome!! i want a set really bad, can you use the mini KP as a filter for anything you can plug in,i.e.-sound effects and such?

[HardRemixx]

Thats is fucking wack. how much did it set you back?

[bigbadron]

@HardRemixx for someone who doesn't want hate comments, you're pretty quick to dish them out.

[HardRemixx]

@bigbadron um what? :S

[MatthewThePerformer]

@bigbadron He was saying it is good. Like wack as in sick.

[joseph888w]

@bigbadron whack is english and means good :O

just to tell you

[salamandergod1]

@joseph888w

whack

Noun: A sharp or resounding blow.

Verb: Strike forcefully with a sharp blow

idk where you learned english...

[joseph888w]

@salamandergod1 yes but in britain or whereever they say whack for cool things, i know what internet dictionaries are btw

bigbadron, the maker of the video took it as an offence so i told him its actually a compliment

[shasta1112]

@bigbadron he said its cool how much did it cost you

[AtlasRezzed]

@bigbadron "fucking wack" means awesome, you fool. He was complimenting you (HardRemixx).

[bigbadron]

@AtlasRezzed then me, and hundreds of rappers, have been using it wrong for decades.

1. wack

1) Lame, sorry ass, aint even legit

2) To Jerk off

[AtlasRezzed]

@bigbadron Yes, the urban dictionary you copy and pasted from does indeed concur with you, however, does his sentence sound like he's disrespecting you? Why would he be interested in the price of the gear, unless he himself wanted to buy it due to the inspiration you infused into him? Hmm?

[shadowkin666]

@AtlasRezzed

Maybe he was wondering how much he spent on this "wack" set-up. As in, how much he wasted if the set-up was bad.

[JUPITERSCOCK69]

@HardRemixx -- yeah suck my beef bayonet you cunt

[HardRemixx]

@JUPITERSCOCK69 wtf your wierd?????

[almdudler91]

Love the mini kaoss pad... awesome shit (y)

[Getexpansion]

Can you record the music you do with them?

[mereshell]

@Getexpansion yeah you can.

[JAMESveeder]

hey man, you're having fun. it takes a while to become accustomed to new equipment.

i don't know why these people are getting butt hurt. have fun with your new toys!

[ChronSolo1800]

these two gadgets are incredibly packed with features for the price, especially the kaossilator using 16 bar looping. but then again if you don't know what the fuck you're doing, it will sound like the above.

[vorzen09]

wow ... a child genius, it must be hard being so smart ...

[vorzen09]

check out "muse"

[Shizzmonger]

muse is for faggots and the dirty british.

[wue2117]

people who know about these things:

is it possible to hook up the Mini-KP to a guitar?

[capoieragerais18]

see ive wondered that too, but as far as i know the guitar works on analogue signals and i presume that these work on MIDI??? not too sure, but a great effects unit that Korg have, Because I own one, is the AX3000G. Brilliant piece of kit, check it out. You get these tpes of effects and more

[theufomusic]

If you have a large TRS to RCA (phono) converter and a line out from your amp, yes. then you'll need the output to go back into something i guess. gd luck; the ufo.

[Beardzillatwo]

most definatly and its completely simple

[jw2113]

yup

[shenkiin]

It is ;)

[wue2117]

how!?!?!

[shenkiin]

@wue2117

you need the koassilator for that :)

Kaosspad is for remixing only

[mrpeanut25]

Yes you can, your just route audio through it. It does not run on midi

[wue2117]

how do i "route audio through it"?

cheers for answering btw

[mrpeanut25]

@wue2117 In has a "in" point and an "out" point, you simply take the sound from whatever is creating it and pass it through the mini kp and then on to your speakers.

[wue2117]

@mrpeanut25 you do understand what i am talking about right mate? Im asking how to attach a guitar. a guitar lead won't fit into it will it?

[mrpeanut25]

@wue2117 Yea man so long as you have the right cords, i presume there is a 1/4" to component adapter/cable out there somewhere, you just need two :)

[DustedOne1]

@wue2117 no you need an adapter. it does work though. 1/4 inch to RCA i believe

[TravisBoatrig]

how do you hook up the two things?

[bluestaringeyes]

@TravisBoatrig i guess its connected like, from the left yellow pad, output to input of the right red pad. and than the output of the red pad, goes anywhere you like. The yellow one has already loops and samples.

[DJEmergenC]

You could hold an entire techno gig with those two things, lol. That would be epic.

[morelliSS]

if you had enough hands XD

[lisacorndog]

those are badass. i want both! i hope i can get them soon

[JaundLos]

the left one is for creating sounds.

the right one is for effekts.

I bought the red (kaoss pad mini) yesterday.

very NICE!!!!

[RiffRaff100]

I want one of these for christmas but to lasy to find out which ones the better one to ask for or if theres even a difference between the two. can someone let me know so i can write some kick ass tunes Like MGMT :)

[mngo905]

The Mini KP is a sound processor and the Kaossilator is a synth. Depends on your needs. Kaosillator only sends sounds out, the mini KP receives audio and shits out even more stuff.

[GamerMan57]

the yellow one is a sythesizer for making music and the red one is kinda like a filter ment for bending and mangling the music

[RiffRaff100]

haha alright, i think im in need of the kaossilator then :)

thanks guys.

[TehKign12356]

@GamerMan57 proper term: Effects Processor

[OmfgPwnag3Duhh]

@GamerMan57 oh my, thank you for telling me, I've been trying to figure that out..

[Clasisw]

Nice done man! Do you know if it is able to plug in the kaossikator in a guitar? it doesnt have input like the mini-kp does, but ive seen some videos of ppl havin a kaossilator on a guitar

[speakbraille]

rubbish

[bigbadron]

the internet speaks, yet no one cares.

[suicidewarpig]

@bigbadron You post a video on the internet. And the internet will speak. We don't care if you like it or not.

[rhys577]

Hey just wondering if i wanted to add effects using the kaoss pad to my ipod how would i use the kaossilator aswell or is that plugged into something separate?

can you use them both on the same thing such as an ipod?

cheers

[77Grim77]

whats the difference between the two?

[HeeeDsHotteR]

@77Grim77 Effects.

[TheJordanband]

I know everyone tries to explain the difference to everyone, but ill give it a shot as well. If you want to make sounds just with the Kaoss unit into a home stereo amp or something, then you would get the YELLOW KAOSSILATOR.

If you know what your doing, and want to process and add effects to music/samples, then get the RED KAOSS PAD

[FIN0]

then theres the pink one!!

[YOUsnozeYOULOZE]

If you're into making shitty "music" and lowering the standards some more buy these two and think you know what you're doing.

[djkdjk07]

Woah there don't knock house music or techno. If you want to listen to shitty music than go listen to Soulja Boy or 3 6 Mafia or anything like that. I can agree this track isn't very good but house music as a whole can be awesome.

[stfuxcali]

i think you think you know what your doing.

[bigbadron]

one thing i know is the difference between "your" and "you're."

[stfuxcali]

you must feel so smart. and fyi i wasn't commenting to you, it was to some other person who commented on this thanks.

[solid3110]

@bigbadron Haha owned him.

[frizeyrox]

@bigbadron your musics shit dont try and fight back with shitty smack talk like that

[bigbadron]

@frizeyrox super cool story bro.

[bigbadron]

musical nerd rage.

[mrpeanut25]

@YOUsnozeYOULOZE If you're into having fun making electronic music and dont want to spend more then 1k, go ahead enjoying these two products.

[YOUsnozeYOULOZE]

Oh wise one, where did you gain such knowledge?

[DustedOne1]

@YOUsnozeYOULOZE its about having fun you dumb fuck, music is whatever you make of it, be it electronic, acoustic....whatever. I happen to own one of these and I have fun making music on it, bigbadron never posted in the description for the video that he has created a masterpiece, by the looks of it he had just bought it. Plus i don't see ANY uploads from you showing the world what you can do, so put up or shut up bitch.

[HappySuckDayToMe]

@DustedOne1 Like you have any authority to tell someone what the fuck to do. I bet you suck at making "music" on it too. fuck off or fuck off! bitch. dumb fuck bitch.

[DustedOne1]

@HappySuckDayToMe Ill tell a fucking bitch like you what to do any day motherfucker you just made your account a few weeks ago, did you badmouth to may people and get scared? and AGAIN comments coming from a big mouth with 0 uploads of his own, I don't need to defend my music production ability to anyone who doesnt have a single upload to show, plus my kaossilator is only one part of my studio you poor broke bastard. suck a dick.

[DustedOne1]

@HappySuckDayToMe Are you gonna cry? Are you upset the only thing you can play is the SKIN FLUTE? your not worth my time. people like you are a waste of resources on the earth, please do us all a favor and end your pathetic life.

[HappySuckDayToMe]

@DustedOne1 How original! Your superior skills of insulting really did serious damage. You're the insult master!! burnnnnnned I am. You don't know how to practice what you preach and shut the fuck up. How very fail of you to not have any music of your own posted, and post a bunch of emo videos to your son that should've been aborted. : ]

[cdodd90]

Thanks alot, will go with the Kaossilator. Some guy said to get a 1/8" stereo to 1/4" stereo cord i to get it into an amp?

[DustedOne1]

@cdodd90 there are RCA outs and 1/8' outs on it. so either one could go to an amp with an adapter.

[ToX23in]

You can't use these straight into an amp (unless it has an RCA in)

You can run the Kp3 through an amp though.

Look it up, it's full name is the Kaoss Pad 3.

Of course, though, the Kp3 is a dynamic effects/sampler so if you are looking to make the noise get the kaossilator (yellow) but if you want to sample and effect noise get the mini-kp or the Kp3

[cdodd90]

Hi i don' want to sound stupid or anything but I'm pretty new to all of this. Can i use either of these straight into an amp to play the preset effects on there? If so which one do you recommend?

[brassmonkeyjam]

the yellow one is a synthesizer while the black one is for creating effects onto the music or sounds being produced by the yellow one

[bubbymasterofjello]

im new to this shit, whats the difference between the both?

[RollingWithThePunche]

ones a synth the other ones a sampler

[emmett12345678]

wats the difference

[technofr3ak100]

i just need the kaossilator now mini kp soo badass im mixing all my songs :D

[mrfatd]

how do you properly connect it if you have a stereo and a dj mixer. i mean i know that the "In" pair of wires from korg goes to the dj mixer, but what about the "Out" pair, do they also get connected to the mixer??

[Henry680]

Erm, sorry, what?

im not quite sure i understood, but the phonos labeled in, souldent be "going" to anything, they are the imput into the sampeler, so should be comeing from whatever your source is.

the out phonos are the output from the sampler, if those arent conected, then its not dooing anything is it? xD

-sorry if i have got the wrong end of the stick here

[dubhippy]

wild demo!

REAL kuzo improv without a PC.

that was fun retrofied atari/casio video game beat mashing & seeing it done on little plastic toys only makes it hipper.

the wiggle effect you did made a cooler sound than other demos with rigid linear finger sweeps.

very well done!

[2Champions]

that's really cool, 5 stars

[letshakehands]

can the mini kp do beats?

[maxwellcarl]

are these fairly easy to figure out? im thinking about buying one.. how long did it take you to learn some of the stuff you did in this video?

[bigbadron]

pretty easy to use. i bought them earlier that day. probably messed around with them for about 1-2 hours before making these videos.

[maxwellcarl]

wow thats awesome. how much were they together? or just the kaossilator.

[1981chrismartin]

Both very easy to use and more importantly a hell of a lot of fun!

[corey75952]

which one do you like better? I want one that would let me make awesome pop club beats... Which one is for me? Yellow or Red lol

[pieface1726]

basically , both of them added together create the KP2...so you might wanna look at that.

[noopa]

is there a difference with them? or are they the same? cuz i want to but one but im not sure which one to get. what one is better in ur opinion? :) thanks

[2411nick]

the Kaossilator is a pocket synth with only out puts

the Mini-KP is a pocket jam machien with vocda so its got an input and output

[xjabi]

so the mini-KP can do everything a Kaossilator can do aswell as feeding things through?

[xjabi]

sorry let me correct myself

Can a Mini KP do Synth noises aswell as be an effect processor?

[2411nick]

yes

[icloo]

MiniKP, touchpad effects pedal only.

Kaossilator, touchpad rompler synth only.

[SecondLifeSailing]

see the color is similar to the KP3 dead giveaway Korg - see same family ;)

[gombie]

Wich one should i get... MINI-KP or Kaossilator?

I'd use it for effects..

[line321]

MINI-KP

[SecondLifeSailing]

The mini-KP is an effects pad Kaossilator is a synth.

Kaossilator makes music Mini-KP line in and out

if you wann make music the get the Kaossilator then get the other later - or save up and get the KP3 instead less portable but better facilities ;)))x :)PXx

[gombie]

It's seems like Minki-KP is my Choice. Thanks.

[danzy22]

Im Hoping To Start Out On One Of These.

Im A Student And I Can Only Afford One Of These Atm But Im Not Sure Which One To Get ??

Which One Would You Recommend ?

I Play Guitar And It Would Be Nice To Use Either Kaossilator Or Mini-KP With It But Im Not Completely Sure Atm.

Any Tips Or Suggestions On Which One To Buy Will Be Great Help.

Thanks.

[IndIka024]

if you play guitar for real, and your not really into electronic music.. Ide buy a Micro BR.. they are totally designed for guitar players.. and im very certain you would use it more and enjoy it more.. just look it up.. MicroBR.. the thing has a dedicated guitar jack, check it out bro, i own one and i use it a lot with my guitar.

[theemomancan]

so have you plugged the line out of the kaossilator into the line in of the mini kp and the line out of the mini kp into speakers or whatever?

i have a kaossilator, but i dunno if the mini kp is worth getting, cos i dont really get what it actualy does

kp3 is outa the question. . way to expensive!

[bigbadron]

as far as hook ups, yes, that's how it's set up.

the mini-kp is an effects pad. it adds filter, delays, distortion, etc, to whatever is plugged into it. if that's what you're looking to go, go for it. but i would suggest saving up the money and buying the kp3. i put one up a few months ago, and i love it. i'll have to put up a demo video of it soon.

[theemomancan]

yeah i see what you mean about the kp3, but im actually a guitarist and bassist and 300 quid is a lot and that kinda money could be put towards a guitar, but i think im gonna stick with my kaosilliator

thanks for helping

henry

[guitar25667]

kp3 and the kaossilator is the way to go, the mini kp is good but it doesnt do its older brother justice

[heybaybee616]

I'm new and starting out, picking up a Kaossilator on Saturday, and eventually pick up the mini KP. I'm going to see if I get good with this, I'll move up to the big leagues like the KP3...well ATM its big leagues, but it can get much bigger than that

[mena123456789]

Say, i have my ipod plug into the red one, can i loop the music?

[bigbadron]

only on the loop settings. like, 75-85 i think. and it'll only loop the last 1-2 seconds.

[Chris182Owns]

What should I buy first?

What's better for like a complete beginner

[adrenalinerush99]

get the yellow one. The Korg K01 Kaossilator. Its brilliant.

[Chris182Owns]

Awesome thanks :)

[bigbadron]

depends on what you want to do. if you want to make pieces, go with the kaossilator. if you want to just mess with premade music, get the mini-kp.

[DJbacktrack]

im looking to buy one or the other. is there a deff. between these too?

[benjive]

The red one is an effects processor and the yellow one is synths and beats loop etc

[silenthillvictim]

yes. both of them are completely different from one another. the yellow one is the Kaossilator and it's a synth and looper and the black and red one is the mini-kp (kaoss pad) and that's an FX processor.

[silenthillvictim]

so awesome bro! i'm new to all this stuff too, but i am asking for the Korg Mini-KP for Christmas. if i have money, i'll get the Kaossilator too. i eventually want to save up $500 and get the Korg Electribe MX. those things are boss!!!! :D

[liquidsounddestructi]

cool crazy stuff

[yetonGhul]

oops im wrong ... they are different noise boxes.

the red one is effects and the yellow one is samples and synth noises

[sparkltone]

oh my the hours that could be spent! er... enjoyed. thanks for sharing!! awesome demo.

[wolfgaru]

Ouch my ears !1!

[00nothing91]

is there a difference between the two? like which one is the better one

[bigbadron]

the yellow one is an oscillator, producing frequencies as well as drum loops. the red one is pretty much an effect pad.

they're both great on their own, but amazing as a pair. if you onlt want one, you need to figure out if you want to create sounds, or distort them.

[TeroTag]

Ya with both you can be a single man daft punk basicly! Right now I am just ordering the black one for now then once I get more cash I am gonna get the other.

[ModernNosferatu]

I'm knew to all this AND I just found out about this Kaossilator tonight. How does that Korg Kaoss Pad mini stack up to the Korg Kaoss Pad 2. I would think the Kaoss Pad 2 would be better but the mini I beleive is a newer product. You kick me any knowledge on that thanx for the video...Oh and do both those products run on batteries only?? or do they have power supplies as well?

[bigbadron]

well, i just picked up a kp3 kaoss pad and that blows the mini-kp away. but the mini-kp is nice though for on-the-go, as well as it's lower price point. once i get the proper set up, the mini-kp will be used for vocals only, and the kp3 will be my main effects pad.

and they run on batteries and well as power supplies too. you could even get car adapters and make music on the road.

[SandGoose0]

I would want to distort, I guess its the red one?

[yetonGhul]

I think they are both the same, except for the color. so he's using one to play sample and loops thru another kaoss pad for the fx(filter, delay, bit crushing etc)

[ModernNosferatu]

Well from what I been hearing the yellow one would go well with a drum machine. Especially an OLD drum machine because they don't have many synths and sounds..so I reason the yellow one goes with the drum machine then the Kaoss mini (black one) would be used to distort any synths or effects made on the yellow one (Kaossliator). I'm a nOOb

[silenthillvictim]

no, they are both completely different. the red and black one (the mini-kp) is for effects and noise samples and the yellow one (the kaossilator) is a synth and looping machine :D

[keyfish]

Kaossilator + mini-KP = #1!

[w33tz]

Nice equipment!! I'm just starting out so that's a bit unnecessary for me...you seem good at it.

[bigbadron]

i've been dicking around with electronic music on the pc for a few years now. this is the first set of equipment. i'd say it's great for a starter kit.
