The Korena take
KAOSS Replay combines a dynamic effects processor, sampler, and tactile performance controls in a 2 kg stand-alone unit. Its XY touchpad accesses 128 KAOSS effects, with Pad Motion, Touch Hold, and FX Release available for effect control. Sixteen velocity-sensitive pads work across eight banks, giving each project 128 sample slots; samples can be captured, re-sampled, trimmed onboard, and triggered with up to 12 Hot Cues per pad. A 5-inch color OLED, dedicated controls, BPM detection, sync, and quantization keep editing and performance functions close together.
