KAOSS DJ

The Korg KAOSS DJ is a compact USB-powered DJ controller with a built-in KAOSS touch-pad effects unit. It’s designed for both laptop-based DJing and standalone operation. It combines DJ mixer functionality, MIDI controller features, and Korg’s signature Kaoss Pad effects in a lightweight and portable design. The device supports Serato DJ Intro (free download), but can also be used with other MIDI-compatible DJ software. In standalone mode, it functions as a 2-channel mixer, applying Kaoss effects to external audio sources.

Key Features

• Integrated KAOSS PAD with 120-program effect & synth engine, giving instant access to filters, modulation, delays, reverb, loops and more.

• Touch-sensitive platters and hot-cue/loop “ribbon” controls for creative performance workflows.
