padKontrol - pad calibration tip from Korg

Post by Daz »

If you are finding the pads too sensitive for your playing style or experience duplicate hits you may wish to change the overall velocity sensitivity of the padKontrol using this technique shared by Jerry Kovarsky from Korg USA :

I have learned that the Factory has a hidden setup for calibrating the pads. It is currently set to the most sensitive/expressive because we feel that it plays the best in this setting. But it can be "de-sensitized" if desired.

So to try this do the following when powering on the PadKONTROL:

a. Current settings hold both the[VELOCITY]& [SCENE]keys
b. Slightly less hold both the [VELOCITY]& [MESSAGE]keys
c. Even less hold both the[VELOCITY]& [FIXED.VELOCITY]keys
d. Least sensitive hold both the [VELOCITY]& [PROG CHANGE]keys

These settings will be remembered with no other action taken.

Regards,

Jerry
