KORG microKORG 2 BK LTD - 37-Key Synthesizer/Vocoder with IPS Display and Loop Recorder (Black Limited Edition)

The Korg microKORG 2 BK LTD (Metallic Black) is the limited edition of the new microKORG, which retains the portable 37-key velocity-sensitive form factor and adds a 2.8" IPS color display for clear, visual editing. Beneath the updated design—with a metallic black finish , aluminum knobs and dials, and a matching soft case —beats a completely new analog modeling engine with up to 2 timbres per program and 8 voices (4 in Dual mode). The vocal processor integrates Vocoder , Hard Tune , and Harmonizer , and the built-in Loop Recorder lets you create beats and layers instantly. With 256 programs organized by category/era (Classic, Modern, and Future), a 10-type arpeggiator, and an effects chain (modulation, delay, reverb, and EQ), it offers a modern sonic palette without losing the iconic microKORG character.
