Ways to use PADKONTROL live????

Post by ankle-gristle »

How would I use the Korg padkontrol in a live performance without using a laptop/computer.

Im assuming to jack output wouldnt work if plug into an amp as its only for a pedal.

Then the only other option are the midi output.

Is there a way of connecting the padkontrol to a guitar amp, as a quick and cheap option.

The padKontrol is just a controller. With out a computer or some other sound source you will not get any sound out of it. You would need to hook the midi out of the padKontrol into something like a drum machine, synth or sampler and hook that device up to an amp.
