Korg KingKorg 61 Note Analog Synth   Ready for live performance.  KingKORG is the full-fledged analog modeling synthesizer you've been waiting for. It carries on the design philosophy of classic Korg analog synthesizers such as the MS-20 and the Mono/Poly, which gave rise to the Prophecy, the Z1, the MS2000, and the RADIAS. This exciting new instrument delivers the unique characteristics of a dedicated synthesizer, especially the fun of transforming the sound by tweaking an impressive array of knobs. While technologically impressive, KingKORG is approachable even to players who are new to synthesizers. And it particularly shines on stage, not only with its great sound, but also literally with a gorgeous champagne gold finish, befitting its royal name – KingKORG.   Product Highlights: A full-fledged, 61-key analog modeling synthesizer designed for live performance   Powerful oscillators that are understandable to the beginner, yet satisfying for the expert   Modeling filters that reproduce the sound of classic instruments   Three master effect sections (each with six effect types) add the finishing touch to your sound   Vacuum tube driver circuit adds rich overtones and powerful distortion   New panel layout designed for intuitive operation   CV/GATE OUT jack lets you control a Korg monotribe or MS-20   Support for librarian software that lets you manage programs   Newly designed panel layout allows intuitive operation The newly designed panel is organized into blocks that let you focus on the controls you need while editing. While reflecting the concept of an analog synthesizer's signal flow, KingKORG's front panel takes full advantage of today's technology. For example, the oscillator section has its own dedicated display that shows the name of the currently selected algorithm. You can turn the dial located beside this display to see descriptive names, and push the dial to jump to the beginning of categories such as ANALOG or DWGS. The control knobs are assigned to the most effective and important parameters for each oscillator, letting you enjoy the unique feature of an analog synthesizer --- turning the knobs to transform the sound. There are also dedicated dials for each of the three master effects, making it easy to try out different effects and hear how they modify the sound. Since a self-luminous organic EL display is used, visibility is excellent even on a dimly lit stage.   61 dynamic, full-size keys, plus Korg’s X/Y Joystick KingKORG features a generous five octaves of velocity-sensitive keys, whose response can even be adjusted (Normal, Shallow, or Deep) to mimic that of classic instruments. Below the dedicated octave shift buttons, you’ll find a backlit X/Y joystick, ready to control your most important live performance tweaks. Play through some of the preset sounds, and you’ll notice that the joystick is already set up for useful and inspiring modulation.   Favorites function for convenience in live performance The Favorites function lets you recall frequently-used programs at a single touch. You can assign a total of 40 programs to the eight category favorite buttons for easy recall.   200 built-in preset programs KingKORG provides a diverse selection of 200 stage-ready preset programs organized into eight categories such as Synth, Lead, and Bass. There's a great selection of the staple sounds you need for live performance, including numerous PCM sounds for piano, electric piano, organ, and clavinet. Thanks to KingKORG’s ability to emulate filters from classic synthesizers, you’ll find familiar and authentic sounds that are perfect for playing your favorite classic and modern songs, along with new and inspiring sounds to broaden your horizons. There's also a user area for you to store 100 of your own sounds.   CV/GATE OUT jack lets you control the monotribe or MS-20 The CV/GATE OUT jack lets you use an analog signal to control a KORG monotribe or MS-20. A dedicated cable for the monotribe is included, allowing you to use the keyboard of KingKORG to play the monotribe.   Support for librarian software that lets you manage programs You can manage programs on your computer simply by connecting KingKORG to your computer via a USB cable and using the librarian software. The librarian software can be downloaded at no charge from the Korg website or from the website of your local Korg distributor.   Specifications     System   XMT (eXpanded Modeling Technology) Program   Number of programs: 300 (Preset: 200) Number of categories: 8 categories Number of timbers: Up to 2 Timbres (Layered or Split) Maximum voice polyphony: Up 24 voices Oscillator   Structure: 3 Oscillators (Analog, Noise, DWGS, PCM, MIC IN) Number of Types: 127 types (Analog & Noise: 32 + DWGS: 64 + PCM: 30 + MIC IN)   Filter   Structure: 1 filter per timbre (LPF, HPF, BPF) Number of Filter Types: 18 types (LPF: 7 + HPF: 5 + BPF: 6), including modeling filters Modulation: EG: 2 units, LPF: 2 units, AMP Virtual Patch: 6 Virtual Patches per timbre   Effect   Sections: Program effects x 3 (PRE FX, MOD FX, REV/DELAY) + EQ (2 Band) + TUBE (Stereo) Types: PRE FX: 6 types (DISTORTION, DECIMATOR, RING MOD, GT AMP, EP AMP, TONE) MOD FX: 6 types (FLANGER, CHORUS, U-VIBE, TREMOLO, PHASER, ROTARY) REV/DELAY: 6 types (HALL, ROOM, PLATE, TAPE ECHO, MOD DELAY, BPM DELAY)   Vocoder   16-Band Vocoder with Formant Shift and Formant Hold   Arpeggiator   Up to 8 steps (The number of steps can be changed)  6 types (UP, DOWN, ALT1, ALT2, RANDOM, TRIGGER)   Audio   Input: Mic In  Connection: XLR-3-31 Type (Balanced) Input Impedance: 6.8 kO  Maximum level: -12 dBu Output: Audio Output  Connections: 6.3 mm, TS phone jack (Unbalanced) “L/MONO, R” Load Impedance: More than 10 kO  Maximum level: -12 dBu Headphone Connection: 3.5 mm, Stereo min phone jack Maximum level: 60 mW + 60 mW @33O Display   Main Display: 16 characters x 2 lines / OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode)   Sub Displays for Oscillator and Filter Sections: 128 x 64 dots / OLED (Organic Light-Emitting Diode)   Keyboard   61 notes (Semi-Weighted Keyboard) *Velocity-sensitive *Adjustable Key Response (NORMAL, SHALLOW, DEEP)   Control   Controller: Joystick, Octave Up/Down button, Category/Favorite button   Control input: DAMPER pedal (Supports Half Dampering) SWITCH/PEDAL   Control Output: CV/GATE Out   Terminals   MIDI In, MIDI Out, USB Type B   Power   AC Adapter   Dimensions (W x D x H)   40.43 x 12.32 x 3.78 inches / 1,027 × 313 × 96 mm   Weight   15.43 lbs. / 7.0 kg   Power Consumption   10 W   Temperature Requirements   0 – 40°C (avoid condensation)   Included Accessories   AC Adapter Owner’s Manual Cable for CV/GATE (For KORG monotribe only)   Optional Accessories   XVP-10 Expression/Volume pedal EXP-2 Foot Controller DS-1H Damper Pedal PS-1 or PS-3 Pedal Switch
