  • I recently found this super cool KORG Mini-KP on Reverb. The unit drop shipped from Japan and it appears to be in great condition. This is very similar to my KO-1 Kaossilator but it's designed to be an effect instead of a sound source & arranger.

      Thanks for watching man. I think I'm going to have some fun with this little box. I've wanted one for a while just cuz it matches the KO-1 (which I love).

    Love the jam you did at the end. They look fun to use together.

      Yeah, it's a fun little box. I'm sure I'll find some uses for it. Thanks for tuning in.

    fascinating. I love what you can do with this type of touch control - you've got tone/timbre as well as note on/note off, all under one or two fingers. As you've demonstrated, it allows you to get really creative and expressive. I'm feeling inspired!!

    • @musicalmiscellany

      Yeah. I've wanted one for a while. I love the KO-1 so I figured this one may speak to me too. I'm looking forward to experimenting with it.

    Nice job on the improv. It really added to it. I have the really mini versions of both but I still like the bigger ones better. They just are special in a way that the really Plasticky ones don’t have.

      I totally agree. There's been a lot of revisions but this era is my favorite. I think these came out circa-2007.

    I had one and was such a fool. To sell it. It goes so well with the yellow one and other synths !! So excited for you and your cool find !!

      I've had my eye out for a while but this one hit the price point I wanted so... I snatched it up. I don't think it's as useful as the KO-1... but I still think I'll have a lot of fun with it.

    Hi, have you noticed an increase in volume when touching the kaoss Effects pad.? When I run a audio signal through mine and touch the pad the volume increases dramatically
    Thanks

    • @musicalmiscellany
      @musicalmiscellany  Рік тому

      Hmmm. I could see that with some settings. However if it’s doing it fir everything you might have an electronic issue.

      I believe I had to dig into the menu to get the levels where I needed them. I use it now permanently wired to my analog console and spare converter output on an FX loop for mixing for clients to keep it interesting/inspiring. Anyway, dig into the settings menu, you might find what you're looking for!

    Hey mate have you ever used rechargeable batteries with it?
    On the manual says alkaline only.
    Cheers

    • @musicalmiscellany
      @musicalmiscellany  9 місяців тому

      I have no tried that. I've only used alkaline or the A/C adapter.

    Can be use with microphone?

    • @musicalmiscellany
      @musicalmiscellany  4 місяці тому +1

      I’m not exactly sure what you’re asking. The mini-KP does not have an internal microphone. If you wanted to plug a microphone into it, you could do that (but keep in mind it only accepts RCA inputs). Mini-KP is expecting a line level stereo input signal. With the right mic preamp this would be easy to do.
