Is the kaossilator connected directly to the midi keyboard via USB or are you going through the computer?

Is it possible to connect the kaossilator to a midi controller via MIDI and use the midi controller to send inputs to the the kaossilator?

It's a great machine but I was really hoping not to need a computer!

thank you!

@thedragonjade Yeah sorry, you need a computer, I translated the incoming notes into the correct controller values to trigger notes on the KP, there was also some fiddling with note off to controller values too. Unfortunately, I sent the KPPro back after the review, so I cant make another tutorial

@speedsol HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!

Is it hard to do that? the midi thing for the piano? and can I use a nanokey to do that?

question: i want to loop acoustic guitar and hand drums for live performance. do you know if it is possible to use a roland fc-300 to control the loop start/stop functions of the kaossilator pro, and if not, are you aware of any other way to use this piece of equipment hands-free? cheers...

@Zanthxs Basically...YES. You can connect anything RCA into the Kaossilator PRO. You have the input switch for RCA or mic. That would allow you to route the audio signal from the MicroKorg through the Kaossilator PRO. You CAN use the loop recorder for that.

it is working with a tetr4 or something like that for the xy pad controlling?

i am about to purchase the Kaos Pro and already have the MicroKorg running into 2 separate guitar amps for stereo... do i need a computer to use the Kaos Pro or can I just connect Korg midi + 1/4 jacks to Kaos rca IN and the Kaos rca OUT jacks to 1/4 phone connections then to the guitar amps? thanks.

@icio1511 you''ll need an amp to get enough power.

an other possibility: you can use active speakers where the amp is built in, but it doesn't matter: the signal must be reinforced before you go to your speakers! ;)
