Editorial Review: Product Description: The KAOSSILATOR is a new pocket sized instrument that packs Korg's world-renowned synthesizer sound along with innovative performance features into an ultra-compact unit. Anyone can instantly play musical phrases by simply tapping or sliding their finger across the KAOSSILATOR's touch pad with no previous skills required. The KAOSSILATOR is a portable, travel friendly device that runs on batteries, so you can have fun creating music anywhere your life takes you, with seemingly endless possibilities. 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 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. 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 KAOSSILATOR has a scale function that makes it simple to produce accurate pitches that match any musical context. You can choose from 31 different scales, including chromatic, diminished, as well as major and minor blues and pentatonic scales. The scale function can be used in conjunction with the key setting function, allowing you to perform in any key.

 Rating: - Portable WOW!This thing is amazing. Fits in a pocket (OK, a big pocket, but still), and it rocks, grooves, funks, moves...it does what you want to hear. It's my early morning commute blessing on batteries, it's my "What? Flight's delayed more? So what!", it's my monster music creation station in the palm of my hand. And it's easy, yet layered, so even after a few months I'm still finding "cripes, it can do THAT too!" Wow. Rating: - Kaoss,,, mmmm....This little thing is freakin sick... 100 sounds/loops and hours of fun. It can be a little tough to hit the exact notes you want... (but, this is coming from a guy with jimmy-deans for fingers :) I've used on a few tracks with great success. I also, love the fact that it takes batters and I can take it anywhere... when I'm board at work, I can loose hours playing with it. Rating: - Kids love this thing!Give this to a kid 3 years or older, put on the earphones, show how to turn the knob to get different sounds and the kid will be occupied for quite some time. Next time show the kid how to record, loop and add loops. It may be hard to get it back for your intended purpose! Much better time waster than video games. Rating: - Great meditation device, tooTook me all of about 30 minutes to master the button combos needed to build, save, and edit some very satisfying multilayered loops. Those who haven't really put one to good use may dismiss it as a toy, perhaps because it's so easy to use and appeals to more than just trained musicians. But it's an extraordinary little device, particularly considering its portability. I just want to mention one unexpected benefit that I've realized: it's a great tool for meditation. Something about slowly building loops (starting with a thick, swampy bassline for example, or just a string of distorted, echoing phrases), and hearing them go round and round and round in your head . . . it becomes like chanting a mantra. At the end of a session, I feel as if I'm ...

Dynamic = The X-Y touchpad surface allows for limitless real time manipulations of patches. Phrase = This is a phrase machine. Each preset is a sound/phrase. Other Kaoss Pads had some synth and drum sounds, but were also effects processors; the Kaossilator is all about sounds and loops and making its own noises, rather then manipulation of others; hence no inputs on the Kaossilator. The Kaossilator looks similar to the other member of the Kaoss Pad family, this time in yellow. About 4 by 5 by 1 inches; 4 `AA' batteries power it and free it from AC supplies. Front panel has ...
