Korg padKONTROL - 16 Pad MIDI/USB Studio Controller
The padKONTROL from Korg is a USB/MIDI pad controller offering sixteen trigger pads along with an X-Y touch pad (based on Korg's KAOSS Pad technology) that can be used to dynamically control natural-sounding flams and rolls when creating drum parts.
The unit's velocity-sensitive trigger pads are extremely responsive to the user's touch and can be used for a variety of control purposes, from performing natural-sounding and real-feeling drum parts, triggering audio loops or video clips, serving as function or transport controls, to sending MIDI control change messages.
- MIDI/USB control surface with sixteen velocity sensitive pads and an X-Y touch pad
- Any two independent MIDI control messages can be assigned to the X-Y pad for expressive real-time performances
- Eight different dynamic curves are available for each pad, or they can be set up with a fixed level
- Two knobs can be assigned to a variety of control change messages, such as pan or decay time
- Controller assignments can be stored as one of sixteen user scenes, for instant recall. The trigger pads may be used to switch among the user scenes, allowing quick setup changes onstage
- Thirty preloaded scenes offer full compatibility with popular music and drum software titles
- An assignable pedal jack allows an optional pedal or foot-switch to serve as a trigger (for kick drum or other sounds) or as a control source
- The padKONTROL connects to a Mac or Windows computer using a USB connection, and can be used as a USB-to-MIDI interface for other external MIDI sound modules
- The included Editor/Librarian software allows the user to easily edit and manage scene data directly on a computer. A suite of additional software titles provide a complete triggering solution
