Korg puts the thrill of the analog synthesizer into everyone's hands, with the monotron DUO. Go Anywhere Analog: That was the theme behind the remarkable battery-powered and palm-sized Korg analog synthesizer dubbed the monotron. The powerful and fun-to-play Dual Oscillator monotron DUO offers X-MOD capabilities for generating even more extreme sounds.
