A few quick questions about the kp3: (didn't want to start a new topic) 1. Will the KP3 accept a balanced mic input from a dynamic mic using an xlr to trs adaptor? (like audix i-5) 2. What is the difference between the two looping modes? I couldn't make out what they were trying to say in the OS 2.0 ...

Yep, the noise is persistent.
The kp3 is always outputting this noise, even when there are no cables or no audio being passed to the device.
Thanks for the advice, I can live with the kp3 being noisy, I just wanted to know if it was normal.

No, the noise is still there. And I'm sure it is from the kp3; I tried wiring some equivalent hosa 1/4 to 1/4 cables from the mpc 1 and 2 outputs back into the record in jacks. So I know how much noise the cables themselves cause, and it's not close to as much noise when run through the kp3. I can ...

So I tried recording a simple test to show how the noise level is when the volume and gain knobs are at normal settings. MPC and kp3 both plugged in to same power strip/surge protector. MPC stereo out to kp3 line in, with dual Hosa 1/4 to RCA cable. KP# line out to MPC record in, with same kind of ...

So I get that the high gain will cause sone extra noise. But the noise coming from the kp3 still shouldn't be that much higher than the noise from the unconnected cable. I am using some hosa dual 1/4" to RCA cables to connect the mpc to the kp3. I can also hear the noise through headphones directly ...

Is the kaoss pad 3 audio really this noisy?

So, I recorded a sound file with the record gain on my mpc1000 at the highest setting. The beginning is nothing connected to the mpc. At about 0:03 I connect some cables to the input jacks on the mpc. At about 0:10 I connect the other ends of the cables to the kp3. At around 0:17, I hit the sample ...

R3 external midi cc?

Can I use an external midi controller to send midi cc messages to an R3 synth to change it's parameters? Basically making it as if there are more knobs to work with? I ask for two reasons: I could easily expand the interface using an arduino and a bunch of pots and I could record sequences of ...
