Korg Monotron Delay Pocket synthesizer

Ultra-compact true-analog synthesizer from monotron series that features wide-range ribbon controller keyboard and Space Delay with Time and Feedback controls that produces intense, analog-like echo effects. It also has new Pitch LFO with selectable triangle or square waveshape, Rate and Intensity controls; and Original analog (VCF) filter taken from the classic MS-10 and MS-20, with Cut-off control. Synthesizer is equipped with miniature internal speaker and dedicated headphone jack for private use with Volume control, as well as aux input jack for applying delay any filter to any audio source. Device is powered by two AAA batteries with life span of approx. 8 hours (included).

Polyphony

Polyphony: 1

This instrument is monophonic, meaning it plays only one note, which cannot be combined simultaneously with another.

LFO

LFO: Yes

An LFO, or low frequency oscillator, brings electronic sound to life. It adds movement and interest to synthetic sounds and effects, playing an important role in both subtle synthesis and bold sound design. However, you won't hear the LFO itself because it acts as a modulator. This means that it does not directly affect the audio signal, but adjusts other parameters such as oscillator pitch and filter clipping.

Headphone Output

Headphone Output: Yes

The headphone output allows direct connection of headphones for private listening. This output provides a convenient way to enjoy the sound without disturbing others or ambient noise.

Battery Operation

Battery Operation: Yes

Battery power provides flexibility and mobility. This feature allows you to use the device anywhere, even in places where an electrical outlet is not available. Battery power is ideal for situations that require portability and independence from the grid, whether you're outdoors, on the road, or in a location with limited access to electricity.
