Korg MS-20 Mini Mono Synth Overview
Korg MS-20 Product Overview
More compact than the analog classic, the new Korg MS-20 mini in no way packs a smaller punch than the original! Featuring the same sonic topology, functions and design as the original MS-20 but adding a USB socket for direct DAW control. This semi-modular monophonic synthesiser has the same 2VCO / 2VCF / 2VCA / 2EG / 1LFO with ring modulation, and envelope generators with hold and delay that made the original a stalwart in the sonic armoury of artists such as APHEX TWIN, THE PRODIGY, SOULWAX and JEAN MICHEL JARRE to name but a few. The Korg MS-20 Mini Mono Synth will add a touch of retro chic and boundless sonic experimentation possibilities to any professional or project studio.
