Fun way to generate musical ideas!

I love this app. I treat it like an instrument. I love that I can export the loops as audio for use in my DAW. I take them and treat them as samples in maschine, or loops in ableton live, and play with them and mangle them more. I've definitely come up with the beginnings of some killer tracks (in my opinion) with this app. It's fun, intuitive, and the sounds are pretty great! I would love to see more sound packs in the future. I also think it would be AWESOME if it could export to midi, midi control other sounds (like plug ins from my DAW). Perhaps a full blown plug-in for my DAW eventually? It would be great to have some further tweak-ability options for the sounds, or use the generated midi to apply to other instruments.

Gate arp please. Will change review.

I own three versions of the hardware Kaossilator, a Kaoss pad, and the new NTS1 Kaoss. All of the Kaossilators have a gate Arp -except this app which I have owned since day one and I have contacted Korg at least 15 times regarding this and have updated my review many times. Why can’t they add one? Why is it so hard? Make it an in app purchase and I will buy it. Don’t get me wrong- Kaossilators are all touch screen so it isn’t a huge leap for a touch device and they pulled it off well except for the arp. They even allowed the option of turning of the flashing lights as requested by many users they never listened when users asked for an arp. Gate arp! The 13 th year in a row I have requested.... please!! I did pay full price for this app when it came out, which was quite a bit to pay for an app that many years ago. Come on Korg don’t abandon this app… it’s only back in the top 100 because it is on sale and it still has not even had an update in three years!! it isn’t like you have to rewrite the entire app just put and arp in it!!!

Fun, but...

This app has great sounds and a fairly intuitive, user friendly interface. I'd like to use it for live performances but can't seem to be able to consistently hit on a specific pitch when I'd like to. Maybe if this app had the ability to overlay some type of visible grid, it would be easier to consistently hit on a specific note or pitch. I can't use this app in live performance in it's current incarnation because it is just to random for me when trying to nail down a consistent, repeatable rhythm line and then overlay a melody. If that were possible, this app would be a TEN STAR app. If you are just into random sounds, this app is great. Another neat addition would be the ability to record live samples and manipulate those with the screen interface. I realize that would likely be a higher cost app, but the world is ready for it and NOBODY ELSE has an interface like this. Keep going, you're nearly there.
