3. Using the mixer
Basic operation
Selecting the inputs
Use the top panel INPUT SELECT switch to select the desired inputs.
Adjusting the input levels
Use the TRIM knobs to adjust the input level of each mixer channel.
Adjust the TRIM knob so that the level indicator lights yellow with the channel fader at the maxi-
mum position, and when the level from the source is being input at its maximum level.
For the KM-202
Use the MIC LEVEL knob to adjust the input level of the mic connected to the MIC jack. Use
the MIC BALANCE knob to adjust the level balance that is sent to mixer channels PGM1 and
PGM2.
Mixing the sound
Use the channel faders to adjust the volume level of each mixer channel.
Using the crossfader
The audio mixed by the crossfader is output to the master bus or the FX bus.
Use the front panel X-FADER CURVE knob to adjust the curve (response) of the crossfader.
For the KM-402
Use the CH SELECT button to assign the corresponding
mixer channel to one of the two crossfader channels (A
or B).
Each time you press a CH SELECT button, it will alter-
nate between channel A (lit green) ➝channel B (lit red),
and➝unselected (dark).
For the KM-202
The crossfader will crossfade between PGM1 and PGM2.
Adjusting the master level
Use the MASTER LEVEL knob to adjust the overall volume level being sent from the MASTER OUT
jacks.
Monitoring
Connect your headphones to the headphone so that you can monitor the audio inputs or the sound
you’re mixing.
CUE
This is a function that lets you monitor (hear through headphones) the sound at a point before
the channel faders, separately from the sound that is output from the MASTER OUT jacks,
giving you a way to check the sound or “cue up” material while you’re performing. The sound
of the CUE bus can be monitored through headphones. This means that with the faders low-
ered, you can use headphones to check the audio input and EQ settings, and then when you’re
satisfied, raise the channel fader so that the desired sound will be sent from the master outputs.
lit green lit red

Monitoring via CUE
For the KM-402
1. Press the CUE button of the mixer channel you want to monitor.
2. Use the MONITOR BALANCE knob to adjust the volume balance between the master output
sound and the CUE bus sound.
Use the MONITOR LEVEL knob to adjust the overall volume.
For the KM-202
1. Use the CUE/MONITOR select switch to select CUE.
2. Use the CUE MIX fader to adjust the volume balance between PGM1 and PGM2. Use the
MONITOR LEVEL knob to adjust the overall volume.
Equalizer
Using the equalizer to adjust the sound
You can use the equalizer (EQ) to cut or boost the low, mid or high
frequency range as a creative sound-shaping tool.
1. Use the EQ SELECT knob to select the desired equalizer
type.
2. Control the EQ that you selected as the EQ type.
Use the HI/MID/LO knobs of each channel to modify the
tone as desired.
EQ type list
KM-Q
This is an equalizer that has been improved on the basis of opinions from numerous well-
known artists who are devoted users of the first-generation KAOSS mixer.
HI: -25dB–+15dB MID: -25dB–+15dB LO: -25dB–+15dB
ROUND-Q
This is an all-around EQ that is a good choice for all styles of music.
HI: -28dB–+12dB MID: -28dB–+12dB LO: -28dB–+12dB
BOOST
This is effective when used as a booster. The mid- and high-frequency ranges of change are
broad, letting you create powerful sounds.
HI: -20dB–+18dB MID: -12dB–+12dB LO: -20dB–+18dB
SLAMMING
In order to aggressively modify the mid-range sound, the HI is set to a frequency range that is
lower than normal and the MID to a range that is higher than normal. LO uses a special curve
that changes gently in the “+” direction and steeply in the “-” direction, letting you apply high
expressive equalization.
HI: -30dB–+6dB MID: -30dB–+6dB LO: -60dB–+6dB
ISOLATOR
This uses a trapezoidal curve, and applies equally to the sound within each frequency band. It
can be used as an isolator that completely cuts the sound, and is able to instantly cut the sound
of a specific part.
HI: -∞dB–+9dB MID: -∞dB–+9dB LO: -∞dB–+9dB
HYPED
This EQ has a gradual curve. It is useful for modifying the atmosphere of the entire song, as
well as for tonal adjustments.
HI: -∞dB–+9dB MID: -∞dB–+9dB LO: -∞dB–+9dB

4. Using the KAOSS PAD
Applying the KAOSS PAD effect to the channel
Press the KAOSS button of the mixer channel to make it light, the KAOSS PAD effect will be applied
to the sound from that mixer channel.
SOLO effect
If you press and hold the KAOSS button (for approximately two seconds), the KAOSS button you
pressed will blink, and the effect will be applied only to that Channel (KM-402) or PGM (KM-202).
Operating the touch pad
Control the effect by using your finger to rub or tap the touch pad.
Hold
If you press the HOLD button the HOLD indicator will light; in this state, you can take your finger off
the touch pad, and the sound of the effect immediately prior to that moment will be maintained.
Selecting an effect program
Turn the PROGRAM/VALUE knob to select an effect program 00–99. Use the DRY/WET knob to
adjust the depth of the effect.
Turning FX RELEASE on/off
1. While holding down the PROGRAM MEMORY 2 button, press the TAP key.
2. Use the PROGRAM/BPM knob to select “r.On” (FX RELEASE on) or “r.Of” (FX RELEASE off).
3. Once again, hold down the PROGRAM MEMORY 2 button and press the TAP key; you will re-
turn to the program selection state.
Alternatively, you will return to the program selection state if you don’t perform any setting
operation for three seconds.
What is FX RELEASE?
This produces a delay effect synchronized to the current BPM /tempo, and will begin the in-
stant you release your hand from the touch pad (i.e., the instant you turn off the effect), and
then decay gradually.
Using the PROGRAM MEMORY buttons
Each of the PROGRAM MEMORY buttons can memorize an effect program, the HOLD button’s on/
off status, and the position of the touch pad when HOLD is active.
By pressing a PROGRAM MEMORY button, you can instantly recall the memorized state.
To store the current settings to a PROGRAM MEMORY button
1. Before you continue, select the program that you want to memorize.
If you want to memorize the Hold status, press the HOLD button to turn the Hold function on.
The position at which you last touched the touch panel will be memorized.
2. While holding down the PROGRAM MEMORY button in which you want to memorize the
current state, press the HOLD button; the current state will be memorized in the PROGRAM
MEMORY button you’re pressing.

12
Setting the BPM
1. When you press the TAP button, the currently-specified BPM value is shown in the display.
2. If you press the TAP button several times in rhythm with the song tempo, the corresponding
BPM value will be detected, and the appropriate BPM value will be specified.
3. When the BPM value is displayed, you can turn the PROGRAM/BPM knob to modify the BPM
value.
4. If you hold down the TAP button, you will switch from the BPM setting back to the program
selection.
Alternatively, you will return to the program selection state if you don’t perform any setting
operation for five seconds.
Restoring the factory settings
To restore the factory settings, set the EQ SELECTOR knob to the “KM-Q” position, and then turn on
the power while holding down the TAP button and the PROGRAM MEMORY 1 button. All settings
of the KAOSS PAD will be restored to their factory-set state.

5. Appendix
Troubleshooting
Power does not turn on
•Is the power cable connected to a functioning electrical outlet?
•Is the rear panel power switch turned on?
No sound
•Is the KM-402/KM-202 powered-on? Are the connected devices powered-on?
•Are the channel faders or the MASTER LEVEL knob turned down?
•Is the volume level of the channel turned down?
•Is the TRIM knob raised to an appropriate level?
•After connecting your audio source to the input jacks, did you select it for the corresponding
mixer channel?
Set the INPUT SELECT switch appropriately for each mixer channel.
•Make sure that audio is being input.
Use the level meter to verify that audio is being received into each mixer channel.
Too much noise or distortion
•The sound will distort if the TRIM knob is set too high, and there will be more noise if the
TRIM knob is set too low.
To obtain the ideal setting, set the TRIM knob as high as possible without allowing the level
meter to light red at the maximum level. If the indicator lights red, the signal will clip, distort-
ing the sound.
•Could you be using the KAOSS PAD function?
Some of the KAOSS PAD effects intentionally add distortion or noise. Check whether noise or
distortion are still present even when you’re not using an effect.
•If the sound is distorting at the EQ, make the following adjustment.
Adjust the gain value of the EQ.
Adjusting the crossfader
You can adjust the left and right transition points of the crossfader.
The Left setting determines where on the crossfader’s travel Channel B (KM-402) or PGM 2 (KM-202)
will completely cease to sound. Likewise, the Right setting determines where on the crossfader's
travel CH A (KM-402) or PGM A (KM-202) will cease to sound.
Perform this adjustment if the sound does not transition correctly at the edge of the fader, or if you
want to shorten the fader stroke. Remember, the X-fader curve knob on the front panel will affect how
you perceive these settings.
1. Turn off the power.
2. Set the EQ SELECTOR knob to the “KM-Q” position, and then turn on the power while hold-
ing down the PROGRAM MEMORY 3 button and the TAP button.
The display will indicate “AdJ”, indicating that you’re in Crossfader Adjust mode.
3. Move the crossfader to the point at which you want it to begin taking effect.
When you move the fader to the left side, the display will indicate “L**”. When you move the
fader to the right side, the display will indicate “r**”. Each “**” can be adjusted in a range of
00–50.
Note: In some cases, the display may indicate “01” or “02” when the fader is all the way to one side.
4. At the point that you want to assign as the left and right edge, press the TAP button.
The decimal point for the “L.” or “r.” in the display will light, and the setting will be assigned
at that point. Repeat this step for the opposite side of the crossfader. (You can’t assign a point
that is shown as “--”.)

14
5. When you’ve specified the left and right points, hold down the HOLD button and press the
PROGRAM MEMORY 3 button.
The display will blink “SET”, and the settings will be stored. When the settings have been
stored, the display will indicate “End”.
6. To finish the setting, turn off the power, and then turn the power on again in the normal way.
Note: If you initialize the KAOSS PAD function to the factory-set state, the crossfader adjustment setting will
also be initialized.
