Korg Kaoss Pad V

The KORG KAOSS PAD V marks a new era for the legendary KAOSS series. More than just an effects processor, it's a true touch-sensitive live instrument, designed for modern singers, guitarists, producers, DJs, and content creators.

Thanks to its new two-finger touch control, next-generation Voice FX, and professional audio connectivity, the KAOSS PAD V transforms every gesture into instant sonic expression, whether on stage, in the studio, or streaming.

Two fingers, infinite expressiveness

The new two-point simultaneous touch control mode unlocks a new level of creativity.
Manipulate two parameters at once in real time: filter and delay, pitch and reverb, modulation and feedback… Every movement enriches the sound with precision, fluidity, and musicality.

Give your voice a new dimension

Based on KORG's next-generation Voice FX engine, the KAOSS PAD V transforms your voice into a fully-fledged instrument:

Real-time harmonies
