So I am wondering how something like the Kaoss Pad or Kaossilator is similar and how it is different from the Roland samplers? Anybody know?

The Kaoss Pad 3 will sample kinda like a Roland sampler but you only have the four pads... The KP3 can do things in real time the Roland samplers can't touch like stretching, reversing, scratching, and some of the effects... Rolands are real easy to use and are quick and dirty... Madlib makes all his stuff with the Rolands so if you've heard any of that you know what it can do... Both types are more spontaneous jam type samplers if that makes sense where the MPC is a studio programming type sampler... Kaoss pads and Rolands make it easy to catch a sample, add effects, loop it, and start layering more on top... Neither are good at sequencing tracks really, but the Roland can be capable of songs, again check Madlib... Ask away I have all three...
