Set up Korg Pad Kontrol in FL Studio,
Honestly, the Korg padKONTROL was quite a learning curve when I first purchased it.
Overall, the Korg padKONTROL is great, but the set up definitely wasn’t. I had to figure out the best way to set it up, and get a good workflow with it.
I eventually did figure out a decent way to set up the Korg padKONTROL within FL Studio, it was by using the FPC and setting up the padKONTROL’s pads to line up with the FPC’s.
I Did All the Reading For You,
So, thankfully for you, I’ve done all the research in order to get your Korg padKONTROL set up and runing smoothly.
There are 2 videos here: The first one is showing you guys how to set up the Korg padKONTROL, the second is how to use the Korg padKONTROL to give you guys an idea of how to use the Korg padKONTROL while making a beat!
Also, I am now aware that FL Studio has allowed the Korg padKONTROL to be a DJ MIDI Controller. I will try to look into some info on that, as it seems interesting, and I have the product! 😉
How to use Korg PadKontrol in FL Studio
So again, here’s a video regarding actually using the Korg padKONTROL.
A real nice technique to using the FPC with the padKONTROL is that you are able to layer your sounds, getting a real nice crunch to your sounds, making them fuller!
Hey thanks for making the videos, they have helped me tremendously. I was curious though on my FPC is says its c#3 but to get it working on the padkontrol it has to be set on c#2. Any idea why this is?
Thank you
Hey Gerry – I haven’t used the Korg padKONTROL in quite awhile. Neither have I used the FPC lately!
What you are saying about pads hitting different octaves does sound familiar..
Have you watched this video? I do think I touched on this topic:

Hey that’s great David! — Thank-you for your feedback and comment. This DAW stuff takes a couple years to get a solid foundation in, however, once those first few years go by, you’ll be doing some amazing things with these DAWs!
Please let me know if you have any questions, I would be happy to assist :).
Riley !
