Right. And you have built a Gakken have you? How much solder did you have to use?
The solder bit was a joke (obviously - as if anybody cares about the cost of solder.) Lighten up.

HA! I knew you'd bring up the youtube vids. Yeh I've seen em, but guess what, they don't mean sh*t. The unit is still months from release. So again I'll state the obvious for you - No ones heard this thing yet (as it will sound once released, obviously, again...)
Plus, you trust youtube for sound demos?! BAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!! roflmao!

You can, you know, also build an authentic MS10 filter for less than a tenner?!!
'Authentic' hey? You wanna ask korg how authentic it is? And before you point out the obvious (again), yes schmatically it's the same, but try to re-sell ur 'authentic' filter, and you'll see why that korg badge IS actually worth something.

So there you go. The Monotron. Cute, but pointless!
Just like your opinion! hehe.
Seriously tho, camparing the gakken with the korg is like comparing an sh101 with an ms10 - feature wise - very silmilar, sound wise - completely different. If you campare on features alone, well...
PS - Please don't take all this personally - I actually love friendly arguments / debates on forums about synths. Thanks for the opportunity.

No. It is NOT my opinion. I am right and you are WRONG!!
How's that for arrogance?
If the OP-1 is $400 I will probably buy one (and an iPad! ) _________________ ACHTUNG!

I've used a Korg Ms20 for more years than i care to remember, and also used the Legacy plug-in -which does sound a bit like the real thing, but not, of course, identical, which is what you'd expect. I would doubt whether Korg will use the same circuitry as the original. If it is truly "analogue" (and not modelled), at best they'll use a custom IC to replicate the response of the Ms20 LPF -but more likely to use off the shelf mult-purpose chip and configure it for the monotron... Still, for the price I suppose it might be ok to give as a gadget present for the synthesist-who-has-everything

Actually the original MS-20 (first generation) did use a custom IC for the filter. Later it was replaced with a LM13600 design.

What about the external audio input? Can I run vocals or guitar through it's filter?
Moi??! I don't think so!
I'm a bad slacker meself
The Gakken can be modded for external in, just look on the web
Interesting juxtaposition of modesty and attitude here.
$55 for a Gakken plus my personal time and effort to add external in vs. $85 for a Korg Monotron with working external in out of the box.

I bet you anything that the filter inside the Monotron, is simply a LM13700- because that's pretty much what it was in the original (actually an LM13600- but pretty much the same thing).
I suppose it could be modded into a synth module? But what's the point??

I was thinking of using this Korg as a cheap analog filter effect.
However, v-un-v seems pretty hot and bothered about it. I don't want anyone to go to the asylum just because I bought a Monotronic.
In seriousness, I'm finally learning about how I can patch external audio through my Moog Voyager's filter. I'd probably just use that instead. _________________ Current and recent work on Soundcloud
