Sleek and sexy. That, to me, is the best way to describe the Korg MS Released in and produced until , the Korg MS is a voltage-controlled monophonic synthesizer, and is essentially a Japanese Minimoog. It has two oscillators, with triangle, sawtooth, sine, square, pulse, and rectangle ring modulator waves.

The overall pitch of the MS is fine-tuned by a knob as is the amount of portamento, and the pitch of Oscillator 2 relative to Oscillator 1 can be fine-tuned as well. The levels of each oscillator can also be independently adjusted by two knobs. The MS features a low-pass and high-pass filter, and the cutoff and resonance of each can be changed- at maximum resonance levels the filters self-oscillate, creating some pretty incredible sounds.

Every section can be modulated by the two envelope generators. The MS also features one LFO, called a Modulation Generator, which can use either a pulse or sloped wave, and is useful for creating repetitive functions by being patched into the oscillators, filters, or VCA. There is also a wheel controller and a trigger button that can control a variety of functions, depending on how its patched. One of the great things about the MS is the semi-modular design. This routing capability gives the MS an amazing flexibility, allowing the user to route the Modulation Generator and Envelope Generators to the oscillators, filters, and VCA, among other things.

The MS also features an External Signal Processor, allowing other sources to trigger the MS and be processed through the filters. The first is set up to modulate the VCO frequency, while the second envelope generator can be assigned to control the VCA, high-pass filter or low-pass filter. Okay, we got through the hardwired part of these synths — simple right? Now lets approach the semi-modular features with an open mind! A modular synth can consist of as many modules that your wallet can handle, which can then be connected any which way you want within reason.

Both the MS10 and the MS20 are semi-modular. This means they can be used as standalone hardwired synths, but also have extra synthesis capabilities and options accessible through their panel of modular inputs and outputs.

Patching out of the MS10, we see outputs for the LFO pulse and ramp waveforms, a negative envelope control signal and a noise generator generating pink or white noise.

Sadly while most synths use the standard volts per octave for CV, the Korg MS10 and MS20 use hertz per volt, in other words you would need to converter to let these these two synths communicate with the rest of the synth world. Some of the Kenton products include these convertors so all is not lost. The trigger out is also a foreign signal called s-trig short circuit trigger , used by Moog, Korg and Yamaha and perhaps others. This also needs to be converted to a v-trig voltage trigger to communicate with Roland and Sequential Circuit synths and probably numerous other synths as well.

The MS20 has all the patching options of the MS10 plus so much more. Have I missed something? Yes, a frequency pitch to voltage convertor — can you believe it? I definitely need to try this. The Korg MS10, I must admit, does not get that much love in my studio. For me, the unique power of the MS20 lies in the high-pass filter and low-pass filters being modulated. When using these filters together to create a bandpass filter and using the peak control, you can make some pretty interesting drum sounds.

Hands down, the MS20 is great for sound effects and external processing once you get your head around the modular section. Putting this all down on paper has got me excited about the MS20 again; I may even get out my little patch cords and start experimenting.

Still not good enough? This year they also re-released the Korg MS20 Kit. This is an Ikea style flat pack that even my mum could put together if I gave her a screwdriver and a hex key. Want to learn more about sound design and synthesis?

Editing audio can be a tedious task and to obtain professional results, proper pitch must be accomplished. The program provides a clean interface with all of the tools to toggle pitch amount, amplitude and formant. It can also retune the speed, 'humanize' and add a natural vibrato to the target audio track.
