Right. And which one sounds trashier? Thatīs the
one for me, then. I donīt have the cash to buy both so I need to know 8). I
guess itīs the KP-1, though.

K1 and K2 each have different and unique
sounds. One man's trashy is another man's quality.. hard to
compare...

Pad 2
Hi Rainer hi all,
this is exactly what I need to know: Does the
old Kaoss Pad sound grittier and wilder when those LoFi programs are used,
or the ring modulator. I know a couple of albums where the KP 1 has been
used a lot (eg. "Hybrid" by Gary Numan) and Iīd like to know if these
trashier sounds are a character triat of the kP 1 only or if the 2 also
has this harsh grittiness.
Thx,
Stephen.

Hi Stephen,
the Kaoss 2 has some effects that the Kaoss 1
didn't have, some of which are way cool - has some simple synth/drum
machine patches, and has lots of BPM-synced effects, which are really a
fine thing, especially if you use them with a MIDI clock (for example the
so-called looper, where you can take a sample of one to four beats and
repeat them - great for a-la-house on-the-fly remixes, or a slicer). Also,
I have the impression that the sonic quality is generally better than that
of the Kaoss Pad 1. And you have two independent sampling areas for the
sample effects, so you can record two independent samples and switch
between them.
Everything just first impressions (especially the
sound quality thing) - my Kaoss 2 arrived just today.

Hi all,
apologies for this somewhat OT post. Are
there any timbral differences between the two incarnations of the Kaoss
Pad or have they just improved as far as MIDI control and outer
appearance are concerned? Any info from experienced list members would
be highly appreciated. Please respond off-list as I donīt want to waste
any bandwidth. Thanks,
Stephen.
