Introduction
Congratulations on your purchase of Arturia's KORG MS-20 V!
We'd like to thank you for purchasing KORG MS-20 V, a virtual instrument recreation of
the KORG MS-20: an intuitive and powerful monophonic semi-modular synthesizer with a
uniquely beloved sound, one that has graced thousands of hits in all kinds of genres for
nearly 50 years.
We've carefully studied and modeled every nuance of the original KORG MS-20 to fully
recreate the powerful sound and flexibility of this beloved monosynth. We then took things
one step further, by adding expanded features for the modern studio, as well as entirely
new sound programming options that take the KORG MS-20 experience to a new level.
As with all of our products, we believe in offering the best of both worlds in a single
package and letting you choose how you want to use it. You can choose to focus on the
Hardware Panel and get a (slightly improved) vintage KORG MS-20 experience, or explore
the Sequencer and Effects Panels and discover sonic and performance possibilities that go
well beyond the original synth's capabilities.
Here's to a beautiful blend of the old and the new – and the beautiful music you'll make with
it!
Peace, love, and music,
The Arturia team
