vKiP builds on our long experience with vM2, vKA, and vKi to provide a VCS compatible controller. All of the required buttons, LEDs, faders, and rotaries are present on a single screen for convenient, ready access. A large, readable "LCD" message area displays labels, setting values, and snapshot names. A full implementation of the VCS banking standard affords access to as many fader and rotaries as Kyma allows.

vKiP works in any orientation, landscape or portrait, so you can choose whichever is most comfortable. Landscape offers both right and left handed operation. You can change orientations at any time by simply rotating the iPad.

vKiP is perfectly at home on your studio desk but its wireless connectivity opens new vistas for Kyma interaction. Use it while sitting back in your listening sweetspot, or carry it over to your controller to provide ready hands-on tweaking while you play.

Asus WL0330gE on Amazon.com

You connect the Asus to the Ethernet port on the back of the Paca(rana) and it can draw its power from the USB port on the back of the Paca(rana) (cute!) It doesn't have a super wide range (only about 7 meters), but that should be strong enough for connecting your iPad to your Paca(rana) in the same room.

Here are some screen shots showing how to configure the Asus. There are a lot of wireless routers out there (I only mentioned this one as it is fairly inexpensive) so if other people have had luck with other ways of setting up a local Paca(rana) network, please let us know!

If you already have a local wireless network, then you won't need this little guy. This info is just for people who have their wireless routers situated far away from the Paca(rana) or who want to tour with the Paca(rana) and need to set up a local network somewhere away from their home studios.
