Korg introduces KingKORG analog modeling synthesizer
Korg has announced the KingKORG, a new analog modeling synthesizer.
Focused on live performance, it features Korg’s new XMT (Xpanded Modeling Technology) engine, with many types of oscillators and filters that can accurately model sought-after vintage analog synths.
