The new KM-202 is the ideal choice for every type of DJ looking to incorporate effects into their performance - no matter where the stage is.

Integrated effects
The Korg KM-402 audio mixer integrates 100 powerful effects from the KP3 KAOSS Pad, all with the unique fingertip control that has made the KAOSS Pad famous. These effects range from filters, phasers, delays, and reverbs, to unique effects such as a real time looper and synth section.

The presets included in the KM-402 audio mixer combine simple elements such as delays and filters in ways you have never imagined, providing a wealth of inspiration. With the KOASS Pad´s unique ability to "touch" your effects, the KM-402 provides a new interface to effects that will take DJ performances to the next level.

EQ innovation
EQ manipulation is a staple of DJ performance. In response to this need, the Korg KM-402 takes advantage of full digital processing to provide six different EQ types to suit any sound; from powerful high-pass filters to unique "Hyped" and "Isolator" EQ curves. Every channel has a dedicated three-band EQ (Hi/Mid/Low) that responds in different ways according to the EQ curve that is currently selected from a simple six-position selector.

These EQ types have been created based on the opinions of numerous famous artists, and include EQ curves that cut only the low frequency region while boosting the midrange, as well as extremely drastic EQ types that use the knobs as isolators for each frequency band. This advanced capability means that the EQ knobs are now a core element of your DJ performance. Take advantage of the integration with the KAOSS effects to create performances that use EQ in a new and unique way.

Fader perfection
As you would expect from a full-featured audio mixer, long throw faders and cue controls let you set the mix and lock your beats in real time while cueing silently through your headphones.

Crossfader response is as personal as the DJ using it. The adjustable crossfader curves and calibration function let you set up the KM-402 audio mixer to your personal style. Whether you´re mixing dual decks, triggering from a laptop or integrating other sound sources, the KM-402 adapts to your style and personal touch.
