I use Kaossilator.
It's hard to say what to do with it ...
Mostly i Use it only alone, building track on a fly...
Sometimes I'm playing only 1 instrument with other equipment (not looping).
but i like it.
I'm glad to have one.

I used Kaoss Pad 3, not Kaosscilator and I really happy to use it. ! great minuse it's volume of effect's (in Mini Kaoss PAD)

edit: nevermind, I must be tired or dumb or something...

EDIT:woops double post

Yeah i was talking about the pad. I wasn't aware there was a difference. All i've ever seen is the pad

Yeah this was never about the kp. As that is a lot different in terms of usefulness and integration. I can never find a use for my kaossilator in actual Chiptune with my gameboys. But I can make some nice Chiptune-esque music with it, my microkorg, and my mini kp. I have a lot of 8bit like presets on the mk. Geez I have a lot of korg stuff

Comparing the kaossilator with a kaoss pad seems a bit unfair maybe.

I have the original kaossilator, kaossilator pro and the KP3

of all of them, the KP3 is the most useful, with its effects and sampling capability

due to the short amount of sample time that kind of limits you.

but they're just like any other instrument, gadget, device, they can be utilized creatively and tastefully if you know how to use them.

I like to just jam around with them but have never really used them in any songs I compose

i would personally find a midi-modded monotribe so much more useful
my monotron though, would never get rid of it. is the kaossilator just as much fun?

Are you talking about the Kaossilator or the Kaoss Pad?

I feel like people that get kaossilators tend to use them way too much when the effect they use isn't really neessary. Cool gadget to play around with though

This was my experience of the product. You can't say it isn't value for money, as it is cheap technology. It was fun for a 15 minute jam at work on breaks, but I never found a use for it in a song. Sold it on quite quickly.

i played one and it was fun for the time, BUT

you can just never find the right time to use it, even if you do somehow figure out a way to put it in your song, it usually just will take away aesthetic, especially with chiptunes

would be easier to use with a non chiptune composition

consider it a toy more than anything

I haveth not the kp pro. But from what I remember, you can't. Mebbee only edit the reverb or some other effect. But you cannot add new ones or remove them.

A while ago I got a Kaossilator pro, and was annoyed that I couldn't edit the patches / add new patches, because of this I returned it. However recently someone told me that you can modify it for new patches- is this true?
