This synth doen?t offer you much if you already have a house full of equipment but for a first synth it?s very good. As most Korg synths during the 90?s this one has a good basic (although not very expressive) soundset. The piano patch is plasticky but usable. The strings and organs are good, and the synth has a nice variety of EPs. The effect processors do enhance the sound but I would have liked a bit sexier chorus effect.

Comments About the Sounds:
Sounds like a typical Korg Synthesizer
