Korg MONOTRON - Mini Analog Synth

di Frankie (03/24/2010 - 10:28)


Frankfurt MusikMesse - Finally Korg produced a mini Synth toy like the Gakken SX150. Powered by two alkaline AAA batteries, the compact Monotron (released in April) is packed with KORG's legendary analog technology, generating thick and powerful sounds. Concentrating on the most important sound parameters, the controls have been streamlined as much as possible. The panel contains only five knobs and one switch.


Main features:
  • Full-fledged, true analog synthesizer: VCO, VCF, LFO
  • Features the same classic analog filter found in the legendary Korg MS-10 & MS-20
  • Filter any external source using the audio input jack
  • LFO can modulate either pitch of filter cutoff
  • LFO Rate knob features cool LED visual indicator.
  • Internal speaker/headphone jack

Few days ago I went to interview Sanodg, the producer of the revolutionary DS card KORD DS-10.  I played with DS10 and it's even better than I tought!! The card will be released by Nintendo Europe before the end of the year but, if you wanna get it before the official european release, you can preorder it from Play Asia!!
