From Our Research Team:

Classic Analog Synth and Space Delay Combo

The Korg monotron DELAY gives you fat, warm analog synth sounds bathed in outrageous Space Delay. Like Korg's classic monotron, monotron DELAY gives you an oscillator, filter, and LFO - but adds a seriously twisted Space Delay that lets you unleash swooping, cosmic sounds that'll put you (and your audiences, if you're a DJ) on another planet. Dial up pitch changes by varying delay time - just like good ol' tape slap. You can even apply the filter or delay to external sounds via the aux input! Pilot yourself to distant galaxies with Korg's monotron DELAY.



Korg monotron DELAY Features at a Glance:
  • Space Delay with Time and Feedback controls offers analog-style echoes
  • New Pitch LFO with selectable Waveshape, Rate, and Intensity controls
  • VCF with Cutoff Control
  • Wide-range ribbon controller keyboard
  • Original Analog (VCF) Filter taken from the classic MS-10 & MS-20
  • Aux input jack lets you apply filter and delay to any audio source
  • Built-in speaker and battery power for Go Anywhere Analog sound
  • Headphone jack for private use

Getting a phone call from one of your sales engineers to thank me for my order is just something that does not happen these days. A personal touch is great. Outstanding service and my order arrived as promised in two days.

Thanks to A.J. Peterson for being there to always make a smooth sale. KORG monotron delay = awesome little noise box. That about sums it up.

Mini Monster!

This thing is a blast. It's a mini sound FX monster. It's basically like having the soundtrack to Forbidden Planet in a box the size of a large smart phone. It's also quite amazing just how much var... read more [+]iation you can get, given the minimal controls. Build quality is also surprisingly good. The creaky plastic case and wiggly knobs I expected before purchase are both pleasantly absent.

As far as the audible output hiss, yes, it is definitely there, but I don't see it as a negative at all. It adds a nice dirty, grungy quality to the sound that somehow "fits" this little guy. It also add a lot of character to the delay feedback in its own right. In fact, having grown up listening to LPs and cassettes, I find the hiss brings back good memories of my youth. I also see the multi-octave ribbon as a plus, considering this box's obvious dedication to bizarre sound fx. It allows really beautiful and dramatic cascading note effects that really fit the character of this particular memeber of the Monotron series.

The only real complaint I can level at this device is that the built-in speaker is not up to the task. Low notes are nearly inaudible and the speaker buzzes and distorts when you get to wild with the delay feedback. Not a huge deal, as I plan to run this through my mixer and powered monitors 90% of the time, and a good set of phones or buds takes care of the issue for on-the-go use.

As in the past, dealing with Sweetwater was a pleasure. Excellent communication via phone and email, fast shipping, and even a handful of candy in the shipping box. You can't go wrong with Sweetwater. Thanks, guys!

Now of Korg would only grant my wish for a Monotribe Plus with two oscillators, a dedicated S&H section, and two 16 step tracks for the synth section...Ah, well... close [-]

I bought this just to have a smaller Korg synth and was blown. With the sound effects you can create with it. This small synth is so much fun.
