Published on 07/28/11 at 06:33
Effects available, Loop, Delay, Echo, Vocoder, and so on! 128 FX 8 separate parts

The FX are editable via the KP3 itself, I do not think using a PC / Mac? Not aware in any case ...

To my knowledge the KP3 is not rack mountable.

Digital technology used for the KP3

Connectivity noon (in / out) RCA in, RCA out, microphone input jack 6.35mm and 6.35mm headphone jack output

UTILIZATION

The config is pretty simple overall, feeling all the gear is now available and we have fun on the touchpad!

But the manual is still in development, especially to absorb the function sampler in my case, but the manual is pretty clear it, some further explanation of refusal was not

But the editing of sounds is quite simple in itself! There is much less intuitive than the material Korg!

SOUND QUALITY

Some effects are of rare efficiency, has provided you have the appropriate fingering and not too abused, some function as the "hold" are very useful.
But some effects I do not use a sentence, they could be replaced by some more appropriate but hey, it will be happy all the same!

Compared to the effects I've heard of the various devices KP3 leave it in my opinion really good at achieving these, I note a good job done by Korg on this point

I use the KP3 live with my ESX EMX-EA1 MKII and a mixer!

OVERALL OPINION

Been used for about a year

Never tried other models before, this is my first multi-effects, touch more ... I just have to try different effects included in the mixer or mixers DJ box with a built-effects ..

I love the ergonomics and the touch pad used with some effect, but do not abuse it too is very important, the sampler is something really great, and memory card slot for the samples, really useful although seen by Korg!

The almost complete MIDI implementation is a good place, especially for the live of course, missing more than a MIDI Through, as the ESX and EMX, for example.

What I like least is certain effects that are not a little, suddenly we are confined often use the same range of effect, which is a little wrong for diversity made, and the excessive sensitivity of the grafted level, the diode passes very often in the red too quickly, so watch at the right setting for your liveset!

Hate to see what gives the last Kaoss that come out ... The KP3 is still a sacred little bug, is trying to adopt even if it is just perfected it really makes the effect ^ ^
