Review of Korg's video Kaoss Pad

Sonic State has a hands-on review of Korg's successor to its groundbreaking Kaoss Pad effects unit, which allowed you to do all sorts of wild things with audio using a trackpad-style interface. The new Kaoss Pad Enhancer adds video inputs and 100 video effects, plus 100 combinations allowing you to mangle audio and video at the same time. It will also generate 60 types of graphics based on the audio or video being fed into it--think iTunes visualisations, perhaps--to overlay on the video. Aside from a few quibbles about an external power supply that's probably not the best thing for use in a club, Sonic State think it's the perfect thing for DJs looking to raise their game by adding video to their sets.
