Korg‘s pocket-sized synth has been a best-seller since its release late last year. Since that time we’ve struggled to get enough Kaossilators from Korg to satisfy the demand. As soon as the units land, they are snapped up. However, we’ve finally had a decent sized delivery of the mini synth. We’ll be sending stock of the Kaossilator around to our stores so you can check it out at any of our shops plus we’ll have stock of the Korg instrument at our warehouse ready for mail order despatch. The Korg Kaossilator uses a pad in the centre of the unit to trigger patterns of synth sounds, sound-effects or drum sounds. Order the Korg Kaossilator online here now!

Extended Description of the Korg Kaossilator Mini Synthesizer
Packed with powerful synth sounds, sound effects, and drum sounds
The Korg Kaossilator Mini Synth 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.
Scale/key setting lets you produce perfect phrases
The Korg Kaossilator Synthesizer 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. Unusual scales such as Spanish, Ryukyu, and Raga are also provided, letting you create distinctive phrases with an exotic flavor.
Gate Arpeggiator expands your performance possibilities
The Gate Arpeggiator lets you produce specific patterns of notes in sync with the user specified tempo, greatly expanding your performance options. Simply choose one of the fifty patterns to specify the timing of the notes, and you’ll be creating phrases that you’ve never dreamed of in a flash.
Loop Recording accelerates your creative power
Loop Recording allows you to record a phrase with a specified number of beats (maximum 8 beats = 2 measures), and play it back endlessly. For example you can record a phrase using a synth-lead sound, and then layer (overdub) bass or drum sounds onto it. You can build up layers of cool phrases by simply repeating this cycle of selecting, playing, and recording sounds. Building a groove was never so easy!
