Korg KAOSS Pad V Dynamic Effects Processor and Sampler

Product Description

Korg KAOSS Pad V Dynamic Effects Processor and Sampler returns with a reimagined touch interface, expanded effects, and a workflow built for modern creators. With dual-touch performance, advanced vocal shaping, and flexible connectivity, KAOSS PAD V gives vocalists, guitarists, producers, and performers a responsive tool for real-time sound manipulation. It reacts instantly to every gesture, turning touch into expressive, musical control.

TWO FINGERS. TOTAL CONTROL.

Take expressive performance further with updated dual-touch operation. Move various parameters at once to build evolving textures – filter with delay, pitch with reverb, modulation with feedback, or any combination the program allows. Each gesture introduces new movement and sound-shaping possibilities.

CONNECTED FOR ANY WORKFLOW

KAOSS PAD V integrates smoothly into today’s studio, stage, and streaming environments. Use the MIC, LINE, and USB inputs at the same time to blend vocals, instruments, and computer audio in one unified setup. The balanced mic preamp delivers clean vocal input, while the dedicated Hi-Z jack lets you plug guitars and basses directly into the unit without extra hardware. For computer-based workflows, the integrated USB audio interface makes it easy to record, process, or stream your sound. Whether you’re capturing performances in a DAW, running effects during a livestream, or monitoring through headphones, KAOSS PAD V keeps routing simple and reliable. A redesigned microphone preamplifier and updated audio path provide stable, low-noise performance, making KAOSS PAD V equally at home on stage, in the studio, or anywhere you create.

VOCAL KAOSS

KAOSS PAD V’s Voice FX engine brings creative vocal processing to performances and production. Add harmonies, robotic-effects, pitch-shifting tones, and other expressive vocal textures in real time.

A GUITAR POWERHOUSE

A dedicated high-impedance input makes it easy to connect electric guitar or bass directly with no additional hardware required. Explore textures like ambient swells, rhythmic modulation, time-based glitch effects, or reverb soundscapes, all shaped by simple fingertip control.

RECORD, OVERDUB & LOOP

• Sample up to 8 bars (dependent on tempo)
• Overdub layers in real time Maintain loop position accuracy during playback

GENERATIONS OF KAOSS

KAOSS EVOLUTION
