8-band vocoder The microKORG also includes an 8-band vocoder with many advanced features.

Best of all, the microKORG comes with its own microphone so you can start having fun right away. Combine all of this with four filter modes, three types of modulation effects (chorus/flanger, phaser, ensemble), three types of delay effects (stereo, cross, L/R) and a two band EQ and you have all the tools you need to make driving leads that cut through your mix or lush pads that takes your audience to synthesis heaven.

Two external audio input jacks are provided so you can run other instruments, CDs and more through the microKORG's filter and effects allowing even more creative possibilities.

David, Renton, WA Reviewsbased on 12 reviewsGreat keyboard, better midi controller
by kev from charlote, nc, usa
First off, the synth sounds are amazing and really easy to program with the layout. I didn't like the wave limitations, so I started using this as a midi controller. It's PERFECT for easy use of plugi... read more [+]ns, because you can scroll through preset banks with ease using the program type knob and buttons on the left side of the control panel. This makes my digital synthesis a lot easier to get into, because I don't have to click on the mouse to get from preset 3 to 77, instead I'm there in a flash with this controller. Not to mention, the keys are great. I have really big fingers (can't use a blackberry) and this thing is great. The action is perfect, I can tap my pointer and middle finger on a key and it registers the different notes no matter what the speed. A great synth and midi controller. Vocoder is pretty awesome. For being almost all plastic it's pretty tough, I knocked it off my desk a few times loading gear onto different desks a few time, still goes 100%. close [-]

September 18, 2008 Music Background: Studio Recording Engineer, Producer Simply put, for short cash you are instantly dropped right into the midst of the analogue synth game. This is hardly a 'beginners' piece- sure the keys are small... but stop crying. It's 400 dollars. Buy it. close [-] Holy crap pretty sweet
