PA4x- V2 - KAOSS . How to hold the Shift Key

Post by oliv73 »

Hi

With Kaoss with have to select SHIFT buntton + a location on touchscreen to keep Kaoss running after removing the fingers.
WHen we want afterwards to change Kaoss state by moving fingers on touchscreen we have to use SHIFT Button again.
As a result we need 2 hands to use Kaoss

How to use Kaoss and keep its state without pressing continiously SHIFT Button and use it with one hand only ?

KAOSS - is it running only when kaoss tab is open ?

Post by oliv73 »

To activate kaoss we have to click on kaoss tab at the bottom of the screen.
But is we want to activate kaos function we have to keep this window opened otherwise kaoss stops.
Is there a solution to let kaoss running even if we quit kaoss window ?
Is there a solution to store somewhere kaoss parameters to retrieve them by selecting a style or a keyboard set ?
I didn't see anything in the user's manual ...

Correct - it isn't in the User Manual and hence is not an option.
Maybe in the future.

Ok

I hope Korg engineers will think about a better integration of kaoss functionalities .
But I am afraid it will be only in PA4x successors ... :roll:
