KAOSSILATOR - PK Dynamic Phrase Synthesizer, Pink description:

The Korg KAOSSILATOR, PINK Dynamic Phrase Synthesizer is a portable synthesizer that delivers maximum flexibility in an ultra-compact body, with battery operation that allows you to jam anywhere.

The Korg Kaossilator is a new instrument that liberates synthesizer sounds from the keyboard. It gives keyboardists, guitarists, and DJs a convenient way to add fresh new elements to a band performance or to a DJ set, while allowing untrained musical enthusiasts to enjoy an entirely new level of musical involvement and expression.

Thanks to its ultra-compact size, battery operation and hooks for attaching a strap, the Korg KAOSSILATOR makes it easy for you to start creating music whenever and wherever inspiration strikes you. KAOSSILATOR comes packed with one hundred powerful sound programs that combine Korg's legendary modeling synthesizer engine with the effects from the KAOSS PAD series, perfect for any musical genre. The horizontal axis is assigned to note/pitch, while the vertical axis is assigned to parameters such as: cutoff, feedback, or modulation depth, giving you a wide range of performance possibilities.

In addition to classic synthesizer sounds like leads, basses and sound effects, there are sounds that faithfully simulate piano, guitar, and trumpet as well as looped and one-shot drum sounds, making the KAOSSILATOR a never-ending source of inspiration to stimulate your creativity. The Korg KAOSSILATOR has a scale function that makes it simple to produce accurate pitches that match any musical context. The Gate Arpeggiator feature lets you produce specific patterns of notes in sync with the user specified tempo, greatly expanding your performance options. Finally, the Loop Recording section allows you to record a phrase with a specified number of beats (maximum 8 beats = 2 measures), and play it back endlessly. Building a groove was never so easy!
