Professional quality sound at an affordable price
The new D3200 provides 16 and 24-bit uncompressed 44.1 or 48kHz recording and playback. Up to 32 tracks of simultaneous playback and up to 16 tracks of simultaneous recording are possible. By taking advantage of the eight virtual tracks provided for each track, you can record a total of up to 272 tracks. In 24-bit mode, the digital data passing through the fader and EQ is recorded onto the internal hard drive as 32-bit data, ensuring even higher recording and playback quality. A 80GB hard disk is standard, allowing approximately 119 hours of recording. The internal processor uses 64-bit precision (maximum 69-bit), delivering professional-level audio quality.

With interactive Session Drums, your own studio drummer is always available
Create dynamic drum tracks quickly and easily with the D3200's totally new, built-in Session Drums feature. Using Korg’s exclusive Knob Matrix, simply twist the Group and Session knobs to choose the overall musical style, and use the Variation knob to select a pattern appropriate for your song. Breathe new life into your drum tracks by tweaking the Shuffle and Humanize knobs to produce subtle variations in the timing, accent, feel, and volume of each drum hit. You can even customize the D3200 rhythm sounds themselves. With the D3200's Session Drums, you'll quickly create and record your original drum tracks – without time-consuming programming and step recording.

Sophisticated and versatile track editing tools
With the Korg D3200's comprehensive suite of editing functions, you can perform advanced and non-destructive track editing without affecting the high-quality sound. In addition to auto and manual punch-in/out, the D3200 provides editing functions such as copy, erase, reverse, normalize, and fade. Sophisticated editing functions such as time expansion/compression are also supported. In addition, a “learning” noise reduction feature removes unwanted ambient noise without impairing the original sound, further improving the quality of your tracks. Undo/Redo allows up to sixteen prior recording and editing operations to be undone, letting you continue editing until you are satisfied. Four locate points allow pinpoint editing of your song.

Versatile input section to accommodate nearly any recording situation
The Korg D3200 can record up to 12 tracks at once, and there are plenty of inputs to go around. An even dozen 1/4" balanced inputs are teamed with eight XLR inputs jacks featuring high-quality mic preamps and 48-volt phantom power. Each of the eight phantom power supplies can be switched on/off independently, so you can mix and match your favorite condenser and dynamic mics to get the job done. The D3200 also features optical S/PDIF ins and outs. For those private moments of inspiration, there's also a dedicated guitar jack so you can plug in and record immediately with a minimum of preparation. The large number of simultaneous recording tracks and the D3200’s wealth of inputs make it easy to record entire bands or even multi-miked drum sets.

Powerful automated mixer section
The D3200's mixer provides a total of 44 input channels (32 recorder channels and 12 sub-mixer channels). Recorder channels 1-24 are equipped with a versatile 4-band EQ. Channels 25-32 provide a 2-band shelving EQ, as does each of the 12 submixer channels. For complete control of your sound, the master track features a separate 4-band fully parametric EQ. Recording input channels and track playback channels feature separate EQs, so there’s no danger of applying duplicate EQ settings, as on some other recorders. This professional recording mixer offers a total of 12 buses (including two effect sends), giving you the flexibility to meet the needs of a wide range of situations. The D3200's Fader, EQ, pan, and effect settings can be stored as a “scene,” and up to 100 scenes can be saved and automatically recalled for each song, providing sophisticated automation. In addition, Dynamic Automation records and plays back individual fader and pan movements in real time, providing the freedom you need for creative mixing. D3200 mixer parameters can also be controlled via MIDI.

Enhanced graphic display and all-new interface for fast, intuitive navigation
The Korg D3200 brings ease of operation to a new level, with a full complement of fresh innovations such as the unique Knob Matrix and Korg’s exclusive ClickPoint. The Knob Matrix provides 16 real-time control knobs laid out in a 4x4 arrangement that can be used simultaneously to edit a variety of parameters such as the Session Drums or the effect processors. The D3200 offers an extremely “analog-feeling” interface that’s far more natural than accessing a parameter and editing its numerical value. The 3-axis ClickPoint provides fingertip control that's much more immediate and satisfying than using a mouse or a trackball. ClickPoint can also be used as a jog/shuttle function when you're scrubbing through audio. The cursor keys and other panel keys efficiently access numerous shortcuts for the various modes. The D3200's 320x240-pixel 4-level grayscale display uses immediately understandable icons and provides visual feedback of the many Knob Matrix functions.

High-quality effects deliver professional sounding results
The Korg D3200’s multiple effect processors use 56-bit internal processing to provide the highest audio quality, and include many of the acclaimed REMS technology modeling effects. A total of 11 effects can be used at once: eight insert effects, two master effects applied to the master sends of each channel, and two final effects applied to the D3200's master L/R. You can instantly select from 128 effect programs created from 52 different effect algorithms. You can edit, create, and store your own effect programs in the 128 user locations shared by the entire D3200, or in the 32 user effect program locations for each song.

Internal CD-RW takes your musical ideas to completion
The D3200's built-in CD-RW drive can be used to backup/restore songs and user data, to import WAV files, or to create finished audio CDs. When creating an audio CD, you can use the D3200 Album CD Project function to easily create a production-ready CD that specifies the song order and even the length of the gaps between songs. The D3200's internal hard drive can be partitioned so you can work on multiple album CD projects at once. The CD-RW can also be internally routed to the mixer inputs and used as a CD player.

Computer friendly
The D3200 automatically allocates part of its internal hard disk as a PC (USB) drive. This area can be used to import/export WAV data between the D3200 and a computer DAW program via USB, and can also be used to load system data. The D3200 supports high-speed USB 2.0 so even large amounts of data can be transferred smoothly. In addition, back-up data created by other Korg D-series models can be loaded.
