The miniKP has 89 effects (some are combi), 10 synth parts, and even 2 presets! I know that the possibilities for more effects links are available on the Quad, but they definitely should've included more than 20 :evil: and maybe some synth in there too ala KPRO!

Really nice effects here. I don't need the sampler. The only thing that bothers me is that there's no midi. If you play live with a complex song structure and different tempos within that song i think it's pretty annoying to tap all the time.

it goes in the toy line with the mini's and monotron, no MIDI and no USB makes no sense for a pro/semi pro device, too bad, it would have looked killer in my rig

Denkitribe has a bit of a play with the Quad.

I'm still hanging on to my money. Denkitribe or no Denkitribe. I have a pair of KP2 which are fully programmable to what ever effect. When I can afford it the Quad will be a buy, but for right now my rig is pretty stable.

I don't want it. Especially since it comes without midi. I still believe the original KP and the KP3 are my favorites.
