    I review and demo the compact Korg KR mini as it blurs the line between a rhythm trainer and a drum machine, providing you with enough flexibility to program your own grooves, without being too difficult to use. Choose from 60 fun patterns and 120 fills covering rock, metal, pop, R&B, jazz, and more, or program your own using the set of 16 velocity-sensitive pads, and a chain function lets you arrange entire songs. As I mention the optional footswitches also let you start and stop your KR mini, as well as trigger fills. And since there's a speaker built into the battery-powered Korg KR mini, you can take it anywhere!

    I have had one for awhile and I absolutely loved the simplicity and even the realistic sounds through a PA system …. But without knowing the tempo until you hit the start button it’s basically useless to use on stage . That is such a shame because I love this little machine EXCEPT FOR THE FACT THAT YOU HAVE NO IDEA WHAT TEMPO UNTIL ITS PLAYING UNLESS YOU PLAY ALL YOUR SONGS AT THE SAME DARN TEMPO . On the edge of greatness but Korg just couldn’t make that jump. It would be nice also to have one foot switch rotate between fill #1 and 2 , but as it is you must chose one of the fills , A or B .

      I haven't got much into the programming but I thought you could program a click in. All in all, yes it is very basic, sometimes to a fault, but a great practice tool.

    The new Korg Stageman 80 is perfect. 80 watts of power. You can connect your guitar & mike.
    Using a Vox foot pedal, you have stop/go, fill 1/fill2 and ending stop.

    Why would an outfit like Korg not include 3/4/6/8 three quarter preset rhythms? I bought one used and assumed that it would have waltz presets.

    I have just bought this machine to back myself playing acoustic jazz at retirement Villages. I just want a basic swing beat to help me not feel so alone! I'mconfused about the Chain line - can I ignore it & just play the patterns. I'm too old & not techno enough to programme songs, besides I know nothing about drumming. Any suggestions appreciated. About to purchase a start stop pedal. Thanks for a great video.

    I screwed up my Korg KR Mini by plugging it to a 12V power cable. It ran for a while on the 12V, but later stopped working. It uses only the 9V power cable.

    Doesn’t come with a power cord is the biggest con, your gonna have to learn to program anything you know. But no power cord? 😂 I’m about to pick me one up to practice my timing on my acoustic

    How do you program a "fill" or "pattern change" to the second pedal. mine will only activate the "chain" so annoying

    Just a quick question if anyone can answer, if you make custom drum patterns does the auto fill still work with them, or does it pnly work with pre installed patterns?

    Hi ! Thanks for the review !
    I just got mine but it will not light up when I push the on/off button. I used the suplied batts, but will try with new ones. Also think there can be somthing with switch, it is no click when pushed.
    Any comments on this?

      Putting in a set of new batteries did the trick. The three ones supplied were depleted at delivery! Maybe too long on the shelf.
