KORG DS-10: It´s out!

Thursday, July 31st, 2008

Yeah! Finally! MS-10 on DS, that´s like, um.. Tina Turner on Justin Timberlake. The facts are here: 2 synth parts, 1 drum part, 16 beat patterns, very editable, very versatile and gooooood sounding! Lots of tweaking can be done, there is even a Kaoss pad included, not for effects but for live tweaking the different parameters. The drum part can only handle 4 instruments, but for some fat electro or retro electronica this is very much enough. The whole thing feels tight and well thought through, perhaps some minor issues with the tweaking of the knobs with the DS-stick. There´s also an effect section but it´s a bit limited; you get a delay, a flanger and a chorus. These can only be used alone, and then assigned to one part or all. But an overall solid presentation and very intuitive. So if you can get it and if you have a DS, you have no excuses.
