The Korena take

PO modular 16 is a standalone keyboard controller that you assemble yourself. Its individually tuneable keys and programmable step sequencer provide hands-on input for controlling the 400 or another modular synthesizer. It creates no sound on its own: its role is to send CV, MIDI over 3.5 mm, and trig to external gear. Choose it when your setup needs a compact keyboard-and-sequencer control surface, rather than a self-contained sound source.

Strong match

Who this is for

  • Controlling the 400 or another modular synthesizer from tuneable keys and a programmable step sequencer.
  • Modular setups that need CV, 3.5 mm MIDI, and trig signals from one keyboard controller.

Consider the trade-offs

When to look elsewhere

  • Use without external sound-producing equipment, because the unit makes no sound on its own.
  • Buyers who do not want to assemble the unit themselves.
