useless but it doesn't matter

this is just nostalgia but I used to keep this in my jacket pocket when I went to catholic school and I was like 13. Very fun although basic and useless for anything but like noise or techno if you are like an insane producer, very very fun and cute though. I loved mine although it is broken now. :(

Love it.

It may look like a cheap toy, but when You connect It to Your audio interface, It's sitting in the mix, and more! If You are creative, and really know what to do with It, It sounds fire!!

In this particular model of Monotron's, (cause I have bought one, and after a while, I collected Them all!!) I Love the crossmode, when pitch of one oscillator affects the other.

Its fun, when You have each of Them, cause They have the AUX in, so if You have enough cables, and maybe some splitters, You can connect everything - to everything. I even chose to buy some more splitters than I needed yet, and It felt so right, while I sequenced Them all with SQ-1.

Definately recommended.

So, great thanks to KORG, for all of Their Projects, and cheers to all of You!!

PS: Check this Tune I made, with almost nothing more than Volca's, and Monotron's.

hours of fun you can take anywhere

a battery powered little analog synth? for what I paid used this is a no brainer. Its nonstop enjoyment. Dual oscillators make this the most interesting little noisemaker of the monotron family. Sounds a lot like my volca bass without the envelope generator. So simple even my toddler enjoys it. Its been a great way to introduce him to synthesizers. My one caveat is the ribbon controller which is tought to play even for a guy with thin fingers like me, but its more of a noisemachine than a tuned instrument, so whatever. So much fun.

So far I have only used the MS20 filter to process external audio in my recordings, but in that roll it excels and offers a different flavor than my 2 Moog filters with the ability to process a guitar, bass or whatever... the battery power makes it a great guitar effect. You can just set it anywhere. Setting up the Moogs as effects units is a chore.

Amazing little piece of hardware! Once again Korg has amazed me with their another one of their astonishing products.

This is great for playing around with for fun and for interesting sounds. I usually play with it when I have breaks from my studio sessions. It's my first synthesizer and it's quite durable and easy to use highly recommend it to everyone even those with no knowledge of the art of synthesis. It has VCOs but also the filter is BOSS!

Mind-blowing synth engine contained in pocket synth smallness.

These ribbon synths that fit in your vest pocket are wild performers of sonic mayhem. The Duo gives you blaring analogy synth voices with easy ways to tweak and warp the sound. Playing these little guys on stage is dramatic, all that noise screaming out of a tiny device, as you twirl knobs and rub your finger across the ribbon keyslide.

Fun, but get the monotron delay

cool analog synth with 2 vcos, cross mod and a resonating analog filter. BBD on the monotron delay makes it more fun.

Great for the price.

You can create some really cool sounds with this. The lack of midi capability, and the amount of controls is very limiting.

Chiptunes in your pocket

I dig the ability to make wild cross modulation sounds in pocket form!

First analog synth experience with powerful features

My first simple, but real analog synth. Two VCOs and cross modulation. The filter is also a beast.
