SOLD: Korg padKONTROL MIDI Studio Controller £35

[Skinnyman]

Now sold.....

 

As mentoned elsewhere, we've recently moved and I'm under instructions to downsize the collection. So, next up is this Korg MIDI Controller....

 

I bought this off eBay a couple of years ago and it comes boxed with the original instruction manual and software disk.

 

Although it's a few years old now and the box refers to Windows XP, I've used it with two different PCs (Windows 7 and Windows 10) and an iMac (various OS versions including the current one) and it works fine.

 

The padKONTROL is available for collection in North-East Lincolnshire or I am happy to post within the UK for £7.50. Please get in touch to discuss other options.

 

Thanks for looking – any questions, please drop me a PM.

 

Here's what a quick Google search had to say about the padKONTROL...

 

“The padKONTROL joins Korg's expanding line-up of MIDI studio controllers. Adding another dimension beyond traditional keyboard control, the padKONTROL is the most expressive and versatile drum pad controller ever!

 

In addition to accessing drum sounds and samples, the padKONTROL MIDI studio controller from Korg can also control softsynths and effects, trigger loops and video clips, and even act as transport controls for DAW software programs. Combining an assignable X-Y touchpad that also provides for natural-sounding flams and rolls, sixteen great-feeling illuminated trigger pads, assignable knobs and a footpedal input, the padKONTROL provides unsurpassed evocative control.

 

The padKONTROL MIDI studio controller is ideal for creating natural, organic sounding drumbeats. Each of the sixteen pads can be individually assigned a note number and MIDI channel so you can control a single drumkit or map it to control different devices in your setup at the same time. Eight different dynamic curves are available for each pad, or you can set each pad to its own fixed level. This allows you to set up certain instruments to feel as you like, and others to always play the perfect velocity, no matter how you strike the pad. You can also set up multiple pads to play the same drum but at different fixed velocities, giving you varied but predictable performance every time.

 

No matter how you set them up, you'll appreciate the great feel of the drum pads on this MIDI studio controller. They respond well no matter where you strike them, not just in the center like many other systems. So you can freely play the pads with both hands, hit the edges or the center and get responsive, musical results - every time!

 

The X-Y pad adds real-time control of both flam and roll timing and dynamics. Moving from left to right increases the speed of the roll, or the distance between the flammed notes; moving up increases the volume of the roll, or the second note in the flam. This is a highly expressive and intuitive way to produce these natural drum techniques. With an optional footswitch, you can even add real kick drum parts, or close an open hi-hat.
