Looking for some advice on the following. I've a basic decks and mixer setup at home at the moment which I'm looking at jazzing up with one of the following:
Korg's KM-202 Mixer (with integrated KAOSS Pad): http://www.korg.com/gear/info.asp?a_prod_no=KM202&category_id=2
or
Korg's KP2 KAOSS Pad: http://www.korg.com/gear/info.asp?a_prod_no=KP2&category_id=2
So my questions are...
- Anybody used the mixer?
- I'm sure a lot of you have used KPs? Good or bad?
- In terms of a relatively cheap effects unit I'm really not going to get any better than a KP, am I?
- If I were to go ahead and get a KP, how would it fit in with my existing setup (2 vinyl decks, 1 cd deck, 1 iPod)? At the moment the vinyl decks are connected to the PHONO INs on the mixer and the cd deck and iPod are connected to the LINE INs on the mixer. Would I have to change this and connect one vinyl deck and the cd deck or iPod to the KP and then run the KP's LINE OUT to one of the mixer's LINE INs? Or can I connect the mixer's LINE OUT to the KP's LINE IN and the KP's LINE OUT to the amp or whatever? Hm, not sure I've explained myself very well... :slanted: basically, in terms of the path the music follows, should the KP come before or after the mixer?
Thanks in advance.
