Re: Latency and External Kaoss Pad FX.

Bump, please ^^' Still having issues here and have a big gig coming on friday.

If nothing else I simply won't use the Kaoss Pad, but really would love to make it work correctly!

Re: Latency and External Kaoss Pad FX.

Yes I know.. however the idea was to be able to send out any loop I had going at any given time to the KP3, so I can use the built in FX to play with it while layering more loops on top of it.

I have my controller mapped to send audio from any desired channel into the KP3.

above that, i can't seem ...

Hello everybody, this is my second topic in the support center...

I have a Korg Kaoss KP3 external FX box/sampler connected to my soundcard and my midi controller is set up to send audio to it Via the EXTERNAL FX plugin.

My problem is that I've adjusted my latency to a high latency (I'm using a ...

Re: Ableton and the Kaoss KP3 as an external FX processor...

In that case add the external effect to the track itself (1-Audio) and flip the switch on the back of the KP3 to direct. you will only be able to use the KP3 on that one track but all the signal running from 1-Audio will go to the KP3 and through the KP3. you can adjust the wet/dry on the KP3 using ...

Re: Ableton and the Kaoss KP3 as an external FX processor...

@ Format -- The input volume is at almost 5% of the available 100% (It's very sensitive), any lower and the audio does not stream through properly, any higher and it vastly overpowers... so messing with this knob does not fix my problem =(


I could be wrong (and I'm not at my DAW at the moment ...

Re: Ableton and the Kaoss KP3 as an external FX processor...

have you got the KP3 set to direct (insert) or return (send)... should have a switch on the back if it's set on direct the input signal will pass through unaffected which is why your getting a doubled signal at abletons master .. switch to return (i think thats what it's called ) and you will only ...

Re: Ableton and the Kaoss KP3 as an external FX processor...

Sadly there isn't much to mess with on the KP3 that effects the input stream.

There is just the input gain, tempo control, FX release, etc.

The sound is distorted with no FX being played, which is my biggest problem.

I found a temporary work around, if I set up an EQ 8 on the track that is ...

Re: Ableton and the Kaoss KP3 as an external FX processor...

That makes sense, but when I try to fix it it still sounds messed up.

Here is a screenshot of a test project with the same setup as my DJ set (That pic would be an eyesore to look at)

Ableton and the Kaoss KP3 as an external FX processor...

Alright, so my latest problem here is that when I use an External FX device in ableton and route it into my Kaoss Pad, the audio sounds flattened, and the bass significantly increases.

I have set up the proper in's and out's with my soundcard, however when I route the audio into the KP3, the audio ...

Omg.. I feel like a dummy.

This entire time I've thought I had the driver installed, I had actually downloaded the korg usb midi driver TOOLS... I actually had to open them and install the kp3 device.

Now I am getting a yellow blinking dot in ableton (Happy).

What's the next step? :]

Thank you ...
