NotesThe Korg Mono/Poly is a "mono-polyphonic" analog synthesizer manufactured by Korg from 1981 to 1984. This keyboard is the sister synthesizer to the Korg Polysix. A comparable contemporary model is the Sequential Circuits Pro-1. It is a perfect alternative to a Moog Minimoog because of its 4 highly-stable VCOs, 4-pole, self-oscillating LPF, gobs of modulations capabilities not present on the mini, and pseudo-polyphony. Polyphony - 4 Voices Oscillators - 4 VCO's: triangle / sawtooth / PWM LFO - 2 LFO's w/ individual rates Filter - VCF, VCF ADSR VCA - ADSR Env Keyboard - 44 keys Arpeg/Seq - YES (with very cool effects) Control - CV/GATE and CV Filter Effects - Chord Memory VCO sync / modulation Date Produced - 1981
