The Korena take
microKORG XL+ is a compact KORG synthesizer/vocoder with 128 programs spanning analog-modeled synth textures, piano and organ voices, plus string and flute-machine sounds. Its two large selector dials organize programs by music genre and instrument category, giving you a direct way to change sounds during a song or call up vocoder variations. Use the octave switch for a wider playing range, or connect a MIDI-capable full-sized keyboard. Free Editor software adds access to 640 more sounds.

Who this is for
