Korg KAOSS Pad Mini-KP Rocks

Posted on Posted in Blog, Techno

Well another Christmas has come and gone and I find myself left in the wake of a tsunami of socks and underwear.  Aside from the comfy new sweaters and NY Jets gear, I wanted to write about a cool gadget that I was  lucky enough to find under the tree.

It’s called the Korg KAOSS Pad mini-KP . This device lets you apply dynamic effects to your MP3’s and it is really fun to use!

Basically you can hook up your MP3 player right to the mini-KP and you use the touch pad to slide, tap and hold your way through 100 different effects.  To demo just a handful of the effect I  remixed a Santa Cruz by Fatboy Slim below.

Now that I am getting into the art of digital DJing, I am glad that this tool is now in my growing arsenal of controllers and effects processors.
