i'm trying to figure out if the manual is telling me that it's possible to get rid of one of your most recent overdubs without erasing the whole loop? anyone know? |

no this is not possible, unfortunately.
i think most users of the kaossilator would like to have such a function.
so i use the kaoss pad 3 to sample the kaossilator's output. this way you get something like an undo-function and the possibility to mute some sampled layers (and sampling of 16 beats per pad instead of the 8 the kaossilator can handle). |

cool. i just got a mini-kp to add to this today, i would've gotten a kp3 but i didn't want to get too carried away here. in a few months i'll get a kp3, in the meantime the mini-kp is a nice sidekick cause they're both small and battery powered. i also have a roland mc-09 from a few years ago that i can use for looping. at the end of the day though the kaossilator's loop function really is just for fun i can't expect too much from it. |

This is possible, yes.
Just make sure that each time you are happy with a performance line, to then do the FIX method as described in the Manual and then, when you have done a shitty last done loop you can erase without killing off anything that has been done before (and stored using FIX). |

I'm very glad it has a 'temporal whilst on' FIX/store function.
However the thing that constantly makes me cry (and angry/feel cheated at Korg about) is that if I am doodling uber late at night (too tired to sample off), or Kaossilator-ing on bus/train, then I have to leave the Power On and drain the electricity/batteries or else ALL my loops are lost on power off...What the f*ck ??? !!!.
*I confess...I really did not check the Spec list for Memory Retention when I bought it for this feature is on nearly every modern day gadget/sequencer/sampler
(and this is the only Korg Product out of the dozens of old analogue retro/recent digital Korg Machines which I loyally bought/own, which has everything lost at power down ).
Kaossilator 2 please ROLL-ON (and dont charge me £100 more than the current retail for the MK1 for basic taken for granted Specifications)...
...and I'M STILL A Kaossilator FAN...

the Gemini i-Key looks very nice for that purpose. MP3 or WAV direct recording onto any USB device, including an iPod... battery powered... very mobile. |

Time to get a pocket recorder, zalo?
*Getting a pocket recorder is missing my point* - Thanks for the tip but what if I must switch it on again to add more to the existing musical phrases/saves if loops are only half built?
Plus, I have a little recorder already and unfortunately, then, that would mean carrying 2 portable items when you could've carried just the 1 (the Kaossilator is sold as a kind of all in one/on the move gadget from my understanding of it).
I am pretty sure KORG (if they make a MK2) with any sense of customer needs, will listen to much of the common sense productive criticism that more than just I in these forums have, about this great unit, and build the next one - size permitting - with a separate channel sequencer+recorder+memory storage on power off - as standard, and that I would happily pay a bit more cash for.
LOVING my Kaossiltaor V MS-20 audio input~filter~lfo right now!
