The PAD MOTION function
Pad Motion allows you to record and playback a motion (several seconds long) of your finger
on the TOUCH PAD. This allows you to reproduce complicated moves. The TOUCH PAD LEDs
will provide a visual of the movement.
1. To record a pad motion, press and hold the PAD MOTION button. Recording will begin as soon as you touch
the TOUCH PAD.
2. To play back the recorded motion, press the PAD MOTION button: it will light and play the motion
repeatedly until you press it again so it is dark (unlit).
3. The Pad Motion can be REVERSED by holding the SHIFT button, then pressing the PAD MOTION
[REVERSE] button. You can alternate direction by repeating this operation.
Note: Pad Motion recordings can be saved as part of a Program!
The FX RELEASE function
Making the transition from a hard-edged effect back to the original unaffected signal can
often times be very abrupt. With FX RELEASE, the moment you take your hand off the touch
pad, a gradually diminishing delay effect in sync with the current BPM is applied. This allows
you to make a smooth and musical transition. A “sharp” transition can be achieved by
setting the FX RELEASE fader all the way down.
1.
Press and hold the SHIFT button while moving the FX RELEASE fader down to decrease the amount of
“transition smoothness”.
Saving and Loading using SD Memory Cards
SD memory cards up to 2GB can be used to load and save data. WAV or AIFF files can also
be loaded into the KP3 from an SD card. Files on a KP3’s SD card can be managed by a
computer, when connected to the KP3s USB port.
Note: THE KP3 MUST BE TURNED OFF BEFORE INSERTING OR REMOVING AN SD CARD!
FORMATTING AND SAVING DATA TO A CARD
1. With the KP3 powered OFF, insert an SD memory card. Power ON the KP3.
2. Press and hold SHIFT while pressing PROGRAM MEMORY 1 [CARD], then rotate the PROGRAM/BPM
knob clockwise to select “ForM” (format) in the display. Press the PROGRAM/BPM knob to confirm and
format the SD card. THIS WILL ERASE ALL DATA FROM THE CARD!
3. To save the entire contents of the KP3, including favorites, settings and samples, Press and hold SHIFT while
pressing PROGRAM MEMORY 3 [SAVE].
4. Rotate the PROGRAM/BPM knob to select “ALL” in the display, and then press the PROGRAM/BPM to
confirm. Rotate the PROGRAM/BPM to select [0] in the display. Press the PROGRAM/BPM 2x to confirm.
Note: When an SD card is inserted prior to powering up the KP3, it will automatically load the samples
stored as an “All” file in memory location [0].
