KORG Monotron Analogue Ribbon Synthesizer Is A DJ’s Old School Dream

Korg Pocket Monotron Synth1 KORG Monotron Analogue Ribbon Synthesizer Is A DJs Old School Dream

There’s nothing like stuffing 70s retro sounds once found in a desktop sized machine inside a pocket sized device.  Korg’s Monotron Analogue Ribbon Synthesizer promises the same funky sounds found in the coveted MS-20 device but in a far more sightly and portable package.  So what are we looking at?  There is an easy-to-play ribbon keyboard, full-fledged, true analog synthesizer: VCO, VCF, LFO, an LED visual indicator, 1/8 inch input/output headphone jacks and AAA battery operation.

You can expect it to hit this May for about $70.
