Korg microKORG 2 Advanced Synthesizer and Vocoder

Description: A New Origin Loved by musicians, sound engineers, producers, and gadget buffs everywhere, the Korg microKORG 2 is the evolution of one of the most iconic and recognizable synthesizers in history. With it's unique form factor and unmistakable sounds, it became an industry standard for musicians everywhere. The microKORG 2 builds upon that legacy of the original with several updates and enhancements including a completely new, powerful sound engine, many more usable programs, a visually astounding user interface, and so much more. Unparalleled User Experience The microKORG 2 retains the iconic one-knob genre selection for intuitive sound browsing, and has five dedicated edit knobs to quickly manipulate your chosen parameters on the fly. The bank selection concept has been expanded with a new categorization system, so you can capture the changing sounds of each era, including Classical, Modern, and Future. The microKORG's control panel gets a vibrant makeover with a 2.8" color display. Visually edit sounds with animated parameter guides, keeping all five knobs in clear view for stress-free tweaking. With a single touch, you can transform the display into an oscilloscope, letting you watch your sound come alive. Bridging the gap between power and playability, the microKORG's revamped interface unlocks advanced sound editing with surprising ease. Familiar to veterans and intuitive for newcomers, it lets you explore sonic frontiers without losing the microKORG's signature workflow. Newly Designed Vocal Processor The original microKORG was well-known for its easy-to-use vocoder and dedicated mic, and one of the reasons for its unfading popularity. The microKORG 2 takes this concept to the next level and features a brand-new powerful vocal processor. In addition to vocoder effects, this new vocal processor features industry-standard hard-tune pitch correction effects, along with a harmonizer that lets you pitch-shift and layer the original vocal sound. You can also apply reverb, delay, and other effects to the vocal processor’s signal output. Enjoy playing the microKORG 2 with the dedicated gooseneck mic that sports a metallic neck, to get the vocals you’ve dreamed of live or in the studio. Inspiring Loop Recorder The new microKORG features a loop recorder, which lets you create backing tracks by looping and overdubbing given parts of music, making it the ideal tool for on-the-go live performances. The three dedicated buttons—record, play/stop and undo/redo—make loop recording super simple for anyone. The recording and playback settings can easily be modified thanks to its easily accessible dedicated menus, so any player can get started making music right away. Of course, the microKORG wouldn't be complete without its built-in easy-to-use arpeggiator. Use the loop recorder and arpeggiator to craft layers of sound and discover where your unique performance will take you. New Synth Sounds Expanding the iconic sound palette, the microKORG 2 introduces a genre-based Category and Bank selector, providing quick access to an incredibly diverse range of sounds within Classic, Modern, and Future categories. The genre-based Category and Bank selector lets users quickly find sounds that will fit any genre without endless and tedious preset browsing. The three Banks feature eight genre Categories, each offering eight preset Programs, and you can save up to 64 Programs in the User Bank for your own personal favorites. The microKORG is a virtual analog synth that models analog circuitry. One of the characteristics of a virtual analog synth is that there are no physical restrictions in terms of how the circuitry is laid out, which gives you a wide canvas to create your own sounds, so you can go beyond the classic, modern, and future eras. The microKORG features virtual patch functionality in a compact form, offering the patch functions that users are already familiar with when creating sounds using analog circuitry. Quickly and easily create deep yet detailed sounds while checking the patching on the onscreen graphical interface. Iconic Modern Look The basic design of the chassis, control-panel layout, green silk printing, knob shape, and other iconic microKORG features have been retained, but the design has been updated for a modern look. The new gorgeous 2.8" color display is placed in the center, and the entire control panel is recessed one level to enhance the immersive experience of playing and creating sounds. The body is painted in an exquisite metallic color that complements the three-dimensional shape, and the side panels are coated with a black stone-grained finish that creates a rugged appearance for comfortable, secure, long-lasting use. Enhanced Effects To expand the scope of the synth sounds as far as possible, Korg has developed three series of effects including nine new types of modulation (with dynamics effects), six types of delay, and reverb. These three series of effects can be independently switched on/off, and you can adjust the wet/dry ratio of the effects separately. The signal is routed through the effects and output to a two-band parametric EQ with adjustable low and high bands, so you can adjust the final character of the sound. Users can create sounds from start to finish with the new microKORG, without needing an external mixer or effects processing. Natural Touch Mini Keyboard With the microKORG 2, Korg adjusted the distance ratio between the black and white keys to make chords easier to play. This is a Natural Touch Mini Keybed, with a touch that’s designed for playing fast phrases. The box-style keys feature a high-grade feel, making it easy to play glissandos as well. The 37-key keybed features an octave shift button in just the right place, and can be invaluable for live performance, so you can focus on your playing without worrying about the settings. On-the-Go Performance The microKORG 2 is easy to carry, at only 54.2cm (21.3") wide and weighing 2.1 kg (4.6 lb; without batteries and mic). The instrument can be powered via the included AC adaptor, but can also be powered via six AA batteries, giving you the freedom to play the microKORG 2 anywhere.
