Korg MS-20 mini reborn @ NAMM 2013

                       
You asked for analog and you get analog, Korg is setting the trend for the analog revival and they're not playing around. Who thought we would see so many modular synths back on the consumer market so soon? The MS-20 mini is a faithful reproduction of the wildly popular 1970s MS-20. Packing all the punch of it's bigger brother (pictured right), the mini comes complete with standard midi and USB midi connections for modern applications. It would be interesting to hook up the new Kaossilator Pro+ or KP3+ now with USB midi directly to the MS-20 mini to use the Kaoss pad as a digital key controller for a modular synth, just drag your finger and turn knobs!

Korg MS-20 mini $599 US (due sometime spring 2013.)

Or the:

Moog Minitaur (tabletop unit only, no keyboard) $599 US, you decide.
Kaossilator Pro Plus ($399 US) now sports a USB port and much more.
