Korg microKorg Vintage Synth Review
The video, via The Unperson, offers a vintage synth review of the Korg microKorg – originally release way back in 2002.
The microKorg was viewed as a toy by many, when it was introduced, but it packs a tremendous range of capabilities into its compact package. And, even today, it’s a capable virtual analog – which accounts for its 20+ years on the market.
Video Summary:
“I explore the sound engine, presets, vocoder, arpeggiator, and hands-on controls, and put it through its paces in a modern setup to see whether the MicroKorg still deserves its iconic status — or whether nostalgia is doing the heavy lifting.
If you’ve ever wondered why this little synth refuses to disappear, this video should answer that question.
I have to admit that I was really blown away with the depth and quality of the MicroKorg. I think it’s absolutely amazing! “
