The DDD-1 (Dynamic Digital Drums) is a sampling drum machine released by Korg in 1986. [1] [2] It was Korg's first drum machine equipped with MIDI control and it features 14 velocity-sensitive pads, 12-bit samples, and limited user sampling that allows for the addition of new sounds. It also offers sound expansion through ROM cards, six ...
Korg Opsix - altered FM-synthesizer with 3-octave keyboard. Operators can do FM, Ring Mod, Filter FM, as well as act as either a filter or wavefolder; Korg ARP 2600FS - semi-modular synthesizer, a reproduction of their ARP 2600 synthesizer from the 70s. Korg RK-100S v2 - update to the new version from 2014 of the popular keytar from the 80s.
KORG has since diversified into digital effects, tuners, recording equipment, electronic hand percussion, and software instruments. [5] [6] In 1992, KORG acquired Vox, then primarily a manufacturer of guitar amplifiers. [7] KORG was the exclusive distributor of Marshall Amplification products in the US for decades. This arrangement ended in 2010.
The Korg 01/W series are workstation synthesizers, the first of which debuted in 1991, and were intended to replace the M1 and T series. The workstation/ROMpler was based on AI² (Advanced Integrated Squared), an improved version of the AI (Advanced Integrated) Synthesis technology found in the M1 (although the advancements of the core synthesis engine were arguably quite minor, except for the ...
Korg PE-2000 underneath an ARP 2600 clone. The PE-2000 (Polyphonic Ensemble S) is a string synthesizer, creating a richer sound than the PE-1000 through the use of three oscillators per note, possibly employing delayed and detuned variations of a single oscillator, and a built-in phaser effect.

The two primary synthesis concepts designed into the Wavestation were Wave Sequencing and vector synthesis, the latter Korg dubbed "Advanced Vector Synthesis".Although the Korg Wavestation was the first keyboard that used Wave Sequencing, its roots can be traced back to the preceding variations of wavetable-lookup synthesis, including the multiple-wavetable synthesizers [6] realized as PPG ...
