He snappily titled Kaossillator is the latest in Korg's range of Kaoss Pad-based products. The palm-sized unit is described by Korg as a 'dynamic phrase synthesizer', and is designed for "untrained musical enthusiasts", DJs and performers.
On-board the yellow-bodied Kaossillator are 100 synth programs, derived from Korg's Modelling Synthesizer Engine, as well as Kaoss Pad-derived effects. Patches include a swathe of what Korg call "classic" synth sounds, plus "faithfully simulated" piano, guitar and trumpet sounds, and one-shot drums.

A gate arpeggiator with 50 different patterns can also be called upon to create rhythmic sounds, at user-specified tempos, and pitched patches can be set to play in 31 different scales in any key. The Kaossillator also has a loop recording mode, with which the user can build up a two-bar loop, using the unit's variety of sound sources.

But, I hear you ask, how do you get it to make sounds? Well, like with any other Kaoss Pad-based product, you move your finger around the unit's square touchpad. In the case of the Kaossillator, movement along the 'X' axis determines the note of pitch of your sound, while shifts of position on the 'Y' axis alters effect parameters, such as filter cutoff or modulation depth.
