Korg Monotron Duo Dual Oscillator Analog Pocket Synthesizer
Dual Oscillator Analog Pocket Synth – Korg’s dual-oscillator Monotron DUO fits in your pocket, yet delivers enormous analog sound! Equipped with a built-in speaker and battery operation, Monotron DUO is ready – anytime, anyplace. Best of all, it’s a blast to play, with a level of simplicity allowing anyone to enjoy the world of analog synthesizers. Product Block Copy Offering two oscillators, the monotron DUO adds an extra dimension of sound. Tune the oscillators in unison for a rich, thick, analog tone; in intervals for classic soloing sounds and generating new effects. The X-MOD (cross modulation) circuit taken from Korg’s classic Mono/Poly can introduce a mild or razor-sharp edge to the overall sound. The monotron DUO’s ribbon controller keyboard features a Scale function to select one of four scales: Chromatic, Major, Minor, or Off. Choose the Chromatic scale to play precise pitches as on a piano, or choose Major or Minor to generate musically coherent phrases on the keyboard.

For the working DJ, it may provide just what you need…. Korg Monotron is ok and fun to play with, but not much more than that. I had one when they first came out and sold it about a year later. The models of these mini synths from Korg got more interesting as they evolved and came onto the market but most of them are kinda like this one.One trick ponies if you ask me, but I think they DO have a place in the world of electronica. Personally, id rather have a more capable machine to get my Analogue sounds in order, however, this sure is a way…
