Korg Multi/Poly KAOSS Pad Tutorial | Real-Time Performance & Modulation Tips

In this video, I dive deep into the KAOSS Pad on the Korg Multi/Poly.
I’ll show you how the XY pad, distance, angle, and physics settings can be assigned to filters, resonance, oscillators, LFOs, and even effects. You’ll see how the KAOSS Pad transforms simple patches into expressive, evolving sounds — and how you can combine it with other modulation controls for endless creative options.

Whether you’re using the hardware Multi/Poly or the native version, this guide will help you unlock the full potential of KAOSS control.
