One of the most iconic and recognizable synthesizers in music history, the microKORG revolutionized the world of music with its unique form factor and unmistakable sound, making it an industry standard for musicians around the world. It has been used in countless legendary performances and recordings, and its legacy spans more than 20 years. Loved and respected by musicians, sound engineers, producers and electronics enthusiasts everywhere, the microKORG has evolved to be even more powerful, more flexible and more versatile - the all-new microKORG2.
The microKORG2 retains some of the iconic aspects of the original, including its conveniently portable size, easy-to-play mini keybed, large dial for selecting program type or the vocoder with dedicated microphone, while also offering an all-new, powerful sound engine, available programs, a visually stunning user interface, and more.
Unparalleled user experience
microKORG2 retains the iconic single-knob style selector for intuitive sound browsing, as well as five dedicated edit knobs for quick manipulation of your chosen parameter. The library selection concept has also been expanded with a new classification system, so you can capture the ever-changing sounds of each era, including classic, modern and future.
It hasA new lookofcontrol Panel, and is equipped with a 2.8-inch color display. Edit sounds intuitively with animated parameter guides that keep all five knobs clearly visible for easy adjustments. Want to see how your edits sound? With just a click of a button, the display turns into an oscilloscope, allowing you to see the sound come to life with your own eyes.
microKORG's revamped interface bridges the gap between functionality and playability, unlocking advanced sound editing with surprisingly ease. Familiar for veterans and intuitive for newcomers, it lets you explore sonic frontiers without losing microKORG's signature workflow.
Newly designed sound processor
The original microKORG was renowned for its easy-to-use vocoder with a dedicated microphone, which is one of the reasons for its enduring popularity.
The microKORG2 takes this concept to the next level and features an all-new, powerful sound processor. In addition to the Vocoder effect, this new sound processor features the industry-standard hard-tune pitch correction effect, and a Harmonizer that lets you pitch-shift and layer original sounds. You can also apply reverb, delay, and other effects to the signal output of the sound processor.
Inspiring Loop Recorder
The new microKORG features a looper that lets you create backing tracks by looping and overdubbing a given musical part, making it an ideal tool for mobile live performances. Three dedicated buttons—Record, Play/Stop, and Undo/Redo—make loop recording simple enough for anyone.
Thanks to its easily accessible dedicated menus, recording and playback settings can be easily modified, so any player can start making music in no time.
Of course, the microKORG wouldn’t be complete without a built-in, easy-to-use arpeggiator.
Use the looper and arpeggiator to craft layers of sound and discover where your unique performance takes you.
Travel through time with new synth sounds
microKORG2 expands the iconic sonic palette, introducing genre-based categories and a library selector for quick access to an incredibly diverse range of sounds in classic, modern, and future categories. Genre-based categories and library selectors let you quickly find the right sound for any genre without endless and tedious browsing through presets. Three banks with eight genre categories offer eight preset programs each, and you can save up to 64 programs in the User library for your personal favorites.
microKORG2 is a virtual analog synthesizer that mimics analog circuits. One of the hallmarks of virtual analog synthesizers is that there are no physical limitations to the circuit layout, which gives you a broad canvas to create your own sounds, allowing you to transcend classic, modern, and future eras.
The microKORG2 offers virtual sound capabilities in a compact form factor, providing the sound features that users are already familiar with when creating sounds using analog circuits.
Quickly and easily create deep and detailed sounds while checking your patching with an onscreen graphical interface.
Greatly enhanced effect
To expand the range of synthesized sounds as much as possible, Korg developed three families of effects, including nine new types of modulation (with dynamics), six delays, and reverb. The three series of effects can be turned on/off independently, and the wet/dry ratio of the effects can be adjusted individually.
The signal is routed through the effects and output to a two-band parametric EQ with adjustable low and high frequency bands so you can tweak the final character of the sound. Users can create sounds from start to finish using only the new microKORG, without the need for external mixers or effects processing.
