TOPIC: Korg Monotron

Korg have released a new analog synth, which is big news in the synth world, but big isn't the word to describe it; it can be held in your palm, powered by 2 AAA batteries and has no keys, but is 100% analog.

Here's a video of a song being made with it

What is this doing on a Prodigy forum? Because, according to an article on Prodigyfanboy, it was shown to Liam 10 minutes before he got on stage this year in Germany, was 'instantly hooked on it', and took it on stage with him that night.

Liam always has used an MS-20, an old, legendary, expensive and rare analog synth on stage, and since this little bugger has the same filters, he may be using it more often to 'extend' his playing when he's using the MS-20 live.

If you still think it's just a toy, then check out these vids of a live comparison of it and an MS-20. Impressive impressive stuff. Price? €60...can't go wrong!

the stylus reminds when I used to record on my Nitendo DSi 10 seconds of me playing some random note with a glass and then toying with the pitch

PS: really 60 euros? Where can I find one?

When one person suffers from a delusion it is called insanity
when many people suffer from a delusion it is called religion
