Korg Monotron Delay Analog Ribbon Synthesizer

The classic analog synthesizer sound was essentially characterized by a good delay. Until affordable digital delays were developed, that delay frequently originated from a tape-style echo machine. The monotron delay is an analog synthesizer designed primarily for sound effects. In addition to its analog oscillator, filter, and LFO, it also features a space delay that is indispensable for producing swooping, cosmic sounds. The monotron delay even replicates the pitch changes that occur when the delay time is varied, just as if you were using an analog tape echo. This fat and warm delay will lend an authentic edge to your analog sounds!

The monotron Delay's ribbon controller keyboard boasts a wide, four-octave range. This design allows for even more aggressive and dynamic pitch control, making the monotron delay an excellent tool for DJs to get the dance floor moving with irresistible sound. The reversed white keys and body adornments glow under black light illumination, rendering the monotron delay ideal for delivering a striking visual impact in virtually any club environment.

The monotron delay offers a range of features, including a space delay with rate and intensity controls that delivers analog-style echoes, a new pitch LFO with selectable waveshape and intensity and shape controls, a VCF with cutoff control, and a wide-range ribbon controller keyboard. It also features the original analog (VCF) filter taken from the classic MS-10 and MS-20 synthesizers, an aux input jack that allows the filter to be applied to any audio source, a built-in speaker and battery power for on-the-go analog sound, and a headphone jack for private use.

In summary, the monotron delay is a versatile and feature-rich analog synthesizer that excels at creating dynamic, cosmic, and irresistible sound effects. Its wide-range ribbon keyboard, analog-inspired filter and delay, and glowing visual elements make it an excellent choice for DJs, musicians, and sound designers seeking to add an authentic and captivating analog edge to their productions.
