KAOSS PAD returns with a reimagined touch interface, expanded effects, and a workflow built for modern creators. With dual‐touch performance, advanced vocal shaping, and flexible connectivity, KAOSS PAD V gives vocalists, guitarists, producers, and performers an expressive tool for real‐time sound manipulation that responds instantly to every gesture.

At the heart of KAOSS PAD V is its new dual‐touch operation, allowing two parameters to be controlled simultaneously for deeper, more dynamic performances. Shape evolving textures by combining effects such as filter and delay, pitch and reverb, or modulation and feedback, all with intuitive fingertip control. A refreshed library of classic and modern KAOSS effects, along with onboard program editing and preset saving, makes it the most versatile KAOSS PAD to date.

Designed to integrate seamlessly into studio, stage, and streaming workflows, KAOSS PAD V supports MIC, LINE, and USB inputs at the same time. A balanced mic preamp delivers clean vocal capture, while the dedicated Hi‐Z input lets guitars and basses plug straight in with no extra hardware required. The built‐in USB audio interface simplifies recording, processing, and livestreaming, supported by a redesigned power circuit and low‐noise audio path for reliable performance in any environment.

Creative tools extend further with the new Voice FX engine for harmonies, vocoder textures, and pitch‐morphed vocals, plus powerful sampling and looping features. Capture up to eight bars, overdub layers in real time, and stay locked to the groove with BPM‐synced Step Hold. Whether remixing, looping live, or building evolving soundscapes, KAOSS PAD V delivers hands‐on control for inspired performance.
