Re: What effect is this?

[Mark <sine@zerocrossing.net>]

http://www.greenplastic.com/gear/ gives you an idea of the stuff Radiohead 
is
using.  What you're talking about is the Korg KAOS pad.  I've owned one 
for a
year now, and I'm amazed at the bang/buck on this little box.  VERY cool.  
I
wish it were a bit smaller, so that I could velcro it to my guitar body, 
but
it's designed for DJs.  I use it to give variation to my sequences in real 
time.
