[@DWatso]

So are Korg even aware of the MPC One at this point? I felt the same, was hyped, saw price, un-hyped.

[@Jason75913]

Look up the DJS-1000

[@DWatso]

@@Jason75913 Eeesh, suddenly the Kaoss doesn't look so bad value :/

[@peterkadarmusic9728]

Seriously. A used One would murder this and you could find a used one for way less than this Korg device.

[@AdamsOlympia]

@@peterkadarmusic9728 I would jump on the MPC train if they made a battery powered one this size, full featured. Would be the best portable production system ever.

[@matthewdavis473]

Higher price than a Digitakt. You could buy a used Octatrack mkii for the same price as well

[@christinepaluch7967]

The minute I saw the Kaoss Replay I was wondering who the hell it was for. The RCA ins and outs, the limited functionality. The lack of sequencer. The price! This was a complete miscalculation on the part of Korg. Get a Digitakt, MPC, SP404, or octatrack. Yeah for $1000 you are getting into used octatrack territory. All of this stuff does much cooler stuff than the Kaoss Replay.

[@VillyMarlou]

I said the same thing you said. Who is this device and why?

[@Jason75913]

Look up Pioneer gear, and which one does this resemble?

[@KTheBoi]

Basically, it's designed for DJs as an effects funnels/auxiliary for completed tracks and loops, or for the same kind of people who use the SP404 to play their livesets AND SOLELY THAT. Putting it up against grooveboxes isn't a proper comparison although I 100% understand why it happens considering Korg's mistakes handling the product. Korg decided to add features that theoretically would be useful that crosses over with the grooveboxes; then instead of going in further as a groovebox or sampler, decided to take a step back and maintain it's a Kaoss line DJ product, despite obviously having a form factor and marketing strat that directly puts them against MPCs and the SP404. If you're using it solely for the intended use case, it's probably fine. But for most people and general use case, it doesn't make any sense, at least not without other gear to supplement it, and the ludicrous price in comparison to more versatile and production-use gear, puts it solely in the demographic bracket of people who buy OP-1s just because they can, and to no one else. It's a playback machine, that's probably fine and fun for that use-case but only that use-case alone, it's basically an unusable production tool. Wait for the next Electribe that probably would be a more apt competitor in this space.

[@dillipphunbar7924]

I'll wait for the Behringer version...

[@wadehathawaymusic]

Yeah it's going into production just as soon as the elementary school in their factory city breaks for the winter holidays. Extra money for those industrious tots! The MSRP is US$89.99.

[@markn8535]

I'll wait for the music KZbinr's crying about the Behringer version being affordable for regular people

[@Fecho33]

People saw the big screen and went crazy😂 honestly I don’t think it’s worth it, it’s to much for adding just one fx at a time to your master output…

[@TilliKommunikation]

That's crazy. KORG must have lost its mind.

[@mikemartin1894]

My volca sampler has micro USB 😂😂😂...what are you doing korg??!!!

[@Nik.leonard]

For that price I hoped a device like a Electribe 3 with all the Korg Gadget functionality (like a Akai MPC One but Korg).

[@johnathanshuey7776]

And the Korg has RCA In and Out… I do have a Kaoss 2 and the SP404mkIi… combined, still cheaper than the knobless Korg Replay.

[@ashleyprincewashington2130]

Sp 404 mk 3 omg !!!! With a touch screen and a looper and sequencer hi resonance display ❤

[@rainbow_mess]

as someone who really liked the previous kaoss pads, when I saw the specs of this one I just started laughing. it feels almost worse than if they just hadn't released one at all. hopefully it gets better with updates ...

[@renaticoleman324]

That's how I felt with the Electribe 2. I tried to love it, but it was a massive step backwards from the EMX-1

[@abominablemusic]

korg may bring the price down if it doesn't sell well, it's just under 1000 in the UK, which is super steep for a fancy kaoss pad...

[@felipefs106]

Drumlogue... Kaoss Replay... lately it seems Korg is not making the right decisions with their new devices

[@mikedurden]

Don’t forget the buggy SQ-64

[@solarion33]

I would say Korg Kaoss Replay is mainly a DJ tool , obviously Korg don't want to hear anything from beatmakers asking for features , its not for them. the nice screen and visualization ( in the vein of other DJ software) is a big advantage over the SP-404mk2 come on any MacBook air with Ableton live light or Bigwig is lightyears better then any hardware solution which is really just a computer in disguise .. IMO

[@Jason75913]

"which is really just a computer in disguise" Every piece of digital hardware has a computer in it. Every single one throughout all the decades. Without the computer inside, it wouldn't be digital or function at all.

[@IanWaugh]

Yeah JAde - Korg has really lost the plott on pricing... They only ones who seem to say good things about it are those who got it for free 😲😊

[@patrickfinn4242]

just remember a gal of milk shold be 3.25$ but it is 6.75$ Price is about rite with features and inflation. KP3+ came out a long time ago. And if you still don't have one, you may have dilutions of grandeur. LOL!

[@IanWaugh]

I would say that everyone is being unfair talking about all of the other, more feature rich, gear you could get instead for a grand. I would say that, if they weren't right.

[@gerritt1446]

Ooh. That's a hard pass. Thank you for the update Jade!!!

[@alexwestconsulting]

I'm good with the old KP3(+). That thing you can pick up for a steal used.

[@Tomorrowomari]

I think this product would mainly be appealing to kaoss pad enthusiast that dont have an interest in the sp404 or the mpc. I dont want it but I know a few people that would definitely get this.

[@Jason75913]

Yeah, being your tracks into the Kaoss Replay and remix using Kaossilator shenanigans

[@versianni]

Wow! I just watched the video and thanks for the reality shock! I was hyped too!! :D BTW ... I had a SP-555 too and if I may let me ask you a question: do you still be able to use it (connected to any OS), even with the total driver updates abandon by Roland? Because I love mine and now it is kinda left on the attic, gathering dust... (sigh!)

[@JAdeWii_]

I've been meaning to get a CF card and reader for it, I don't even have a card in it. I just use it as an external sound processor, but I've been meaning to at least record some drum shots live into it to have those easy access on the pads. Only 2gb memory tho so I was sad about not being able to load long sets like on the 404, but the D-BEAM is a vibe and I like the effects too. Whip it outtttt!

[@jfairplane8520]

Usb micro.. no problem at all, if you do used pc you will understand fast that the supposed both side are only for charging and you get very slow speed over 1 side of it.

[@tylon2999]

It seems to be designed for DJs (RCA in/outs) like the Pioneer DJS1000 which cost a little more. I have 3 Roland samplers, I keep thinking they would improve but no, sos ,I made more music with a Krog's KO1than all of them. I make little sample based music but when I do I use a MPC Live. I share your concern about the rear panel though.

[@rorz999]

Everything thought the DJS-1000 was for DJing but it's actually better suited for production, it has a rock solid sequencer. Whereas everyone expects the Kaoss Replay to be a sampler sequencer, but actually it's a tool for DJs and live performers to trigger samples and add FX

[@0072gldnfngr]

Yea. I watched the Loopop review and was saddened. Nice sweater! ⚡️

[@sehbeats4572]

I'm genuinely interested in witnessing the product in action. While I acknowledge the concerns about the high price point, I haven't come across any footage showcasing the practical use of this item. I'm aware that Taetro recently released a video highlighting similar points, but I was particularly eager to see your perspective and experiences with the product in action. If you've had the opportunity to test it and can provide footage that supports your observations, it would be more compelling than relying solely on verbal descriptions.

[@sawtooth808]

Taetro, Loopop, and Bo Nuri (BoBeats) get more hands on with the Korg Kaoss Replay, and while Bo and Loopop are diplomatic (polite) about The Korg KR (shortened for brevity), Taetro was brutally honest about it.

[@jurgenschumacher9452]

what do you think are the similaritys, pro and cons between Korg Kaoss Replay and Roland SP-808EX if you would like to compare

[@VillyMarlou]

I need that course too.

[@rodrigolaporte274]

Very cool of you to do this video and not just hopping on the hype train! Still a cool unit but damn, those details!

[@petert7807]

The looper is the only reason I'd be interested in the Replay. I littorally bought a MC101 after having the mk2 for the looper! BUT the MC can only hold 60 seconds of loops😢 WTF roland.🤦🏾‍♂️

[@MrCosmicVictory]

after confusion, i figured it out! its competing with the dj-mode of the sp404mk2, and its better for the dj-mode. 12 hot-cues per pad, and the pad colors according if its a full song or one-shot. etc

[@Jason75913]

[@fakshen1973]

Korg has been hanging out with Ford or something. $1000 and it only has busted RCA jacks?

[@dojistar7022]

It had so much potential! ...Will probably never sell my 404-SX even though it mostly just collects dust because of the chunky workflow and lack of real sequencer. Was hoping Korg's take on a 404 would take care of those issues AND soup it up with a Kaoss pad but... nope. Fail!

[@davidmaskew]

Wow, I literally only heard of the korg unit from a video before this one. I've been considering getting a 404 and trying it out as a first dive into samplingvand beat making and when I just saw the korg I thought it looked like a good alternative but then I saw the price. More than double what I can get a 404 for? I don't think so. If it was maybe £600 then possibly but at that price there are far better options for not much more and they are beyond my level or needs currently.

[@Professor-kaoss]

I was all excited when i first saw too but looks like touchscreen is only new feature I'd care about and didn't even think about the knobs til you mentioned. Price is insanity for sure too, hadn't looked it up but damn My whole name has to do with kaoss pads but yea definitely gonna stick with my ol reliable kp3

Guys, I have a big dilemma there... I love the work flow of the Sp404 Sx.. But I had a really annoying bug that nearly blew some of my gigs in mid performance...( 6 pads are linked by paire...🤷🏽‍♂️) I bought the MK2 and I was Very satisfied of it, use it just for FX and lunch one pad at a time (no step sequencer, no DJ mode... But a bit of sampling yes) And just this weekend, it's started to Bug too even if it just 2 years old. Oo ( CTRL3 keep coming back to the same position on the screen, and continue to move on the screen even in the option menu or the chop menu and without touching the knob...) I had to many problems with Roland and I surch for an alternative... This Korg seems to me to be a good one but there is a lot of wrong comments on it.. Do you think of another alternative that do effect and samplers as good as SP or this kaoss?? Hope to have some answer cause the FX of the SP is a big part avec my show and a big part of my identity, but I can't continue like that...

I currently use Logic. I own a maschine mk3, tr8 & 2 boutiques. Tell me why I’m better off getting a nice new 404mk2 and not the maschine plus.

Machine+ is underpowered. SP-404 would be a whole new workflow for you, though you could just use it as performance FX after your other gear.

[@h-dawg969]

@@Jason75913 i really enjoy my mk3 but I just want to not have to include the laptop. I’ve been planning to upgrade to the maschine plus but coz they’re so expensive I don’t know if instead going for a 404mk2 or MPCOne would be better. The main negative is I’m used to maschine workflow, but being away from the laptop is the main goal. Especially with the Roland gear.

Good looking Jade!! Just tired of these companies not coming with it. Now if they would of through a decent mic preamp on there with an eight track recorder of audio this would have covered lots of ground like op1s Lofi 12 and challenged Roland to step up the sp even more. But these companies are giving less and trying to charge more

I can’t do this for $1,000. No thanks. Not even $500. As for the SP 404 MKii… I admired the MKii and really loved a lot of things about it, but in the end it sadly didn’t agree with me. This may sound stupid, but the fact that there isn’t transport record/play/stop buttons on it just didn’t compute with my brain. That and I kept forgetting all the short cut shift function’s. I was in love with it though, and still think it’s the best 16 pad sampler on the market. Especially for the price. As for MPC, I really dislike touch screens. For my style of music the Digitakt & Tasty Chips GR-1 are my samplers of choice. As for drum machines, the TR-8s is my favorite. Still considering Machine. That’s my 2 cents

KORG KAOSS REPLAY Not a SP-404SX rival It's a RC-505mkII rival😅

[@zzz...222]

Kaoss Replay will probably sell less units than the ones given for free. Absurd pricing. Maybe the release of K.R. does not aim at sales but it is some kind of social experiment. I cannot find any other argument for such a ridiculous pricing. Though the way K.R. is made, I would not buy it not even for $500. As for the sp 404 mk2, obviously it lacks a looper. But it also lacks even more basic functions that are obligatory and related to looping. 404 mk2 cannot sample without stopping the sequencer (and any sound too) for the seconds needed to save the sample. Sampling is required for looping. In other words, looping cannot be possible when the device stops while sampling. Chances are that this cannot be fixed, due to a weak CPU. I was one of the first to point out this problem and I was told that it's only me. 2 years later, many more requested the features, but, still nothing. The funny thing is, Kaoss Pad 3, a sampler that came out 20+ years ago, does both looping and uninterrupted sampling. So I do believe Roland screwed up big time, and maybe it's time to sell it and move on to a more decent sampler.

[@Jason75913]

It's not a social experiment, unh0ly sh1t! 🤣🤣 Go look up the Pioneer DJS-1000

[@all.day.day-dreamer]

I don't want to know anything about Korg, they do things that are very inappropriate for having good products. They removed Kronos to impose the Nautilus, which was not selling well. Machines like wavestate, opsix and modwave did not sell well either and they decided to put them in a more premium format with an aluminum casing and with better presentation for more than 2000 dollars. Now this thing for more than 1000 euros... any day we will wake up to the news that the Volcasample deluxe will cost 1600 dollars because it is a deluxe version. It really is ridiculous to see this commercial proposal seeing how the market is. I said a long time ago not to buy more Korg things and I will continue with that for a long time.

[@SpawnoftheEd]

- Korg - updates Choose only one.

[@ERYKJACKNIFE]

I think it’s screen and enclosure is what your paying the most for. If you put it next to a Drumlogue, kp3 Kaoss pad, and this new korg kaoss thing you’ll start to see all they did is used the main PCB from the old unit upgraded w/ newer chip set and added pads and bigger touch capacitive touch screen make a new enclosure, silk screened the unit w/ control and function texts, popped in some new pads, and screen with a couple of ribbon cables and boom you got this thing. You’ll be hard pressed to find out that the most expensive part of a synth or any electronic music device is the sheet metal folding and CNC machining, paint and powder coating process. Now go stare at any plastic drum machine and or midi controller which has none of these attributes and think about what I just said. Although this thing seem to have a few set backs, it looks dope to me. I would like to grab one and a Drumlogue also to see what I can make with them.🙃

The MPC Key 61 is an upgraded MPC Live, think MPC Live 1.5, integrated with a 61 key velocity sensitive keyboard, VSTs and dedicated controls for the Touch FX plugin. It's far more capable than the Replay but at a cost of a larger footprint which is a fair trade knowing what it's capable of.

I’m done with Korg. Bought the Drumlogue which was absolute trash with completely screwed up midi implementation. Sold it within a week. Just sold my Minilogue XD because the output is too weak and noisy. They’ve really been dropping the ball. I don’t know what they’re thinking.

Maybe your Minilogue was defective?
