i'm so excited about my new toy the Korg Mono/Poly
so i have to give u an example what it can do

bang

it's just an simple arpeggiator bassline and i'm turning some knobs, using FM and making some little messes

Monopoly was one of the few popular analogues I never really had much experience with. Such a shame (as there's no way I'd get to buy one over here

).

I've always wanted one though. Sounds right up my street...if you ever get bored of it...

Monopoly is a nice boardgame..but it gets a bit long after a while.

The best way to win at monopoly is to create a housing shortage. Never buy hotels......stop at 4 houses.

If you own a lot of properties, you'll truly have a monopoly!

I was messing around on my friend's mono-poly at his studio a while back. It was pretty badly damaged (keys broken, pots missng. etc), but the sound out of this thing (running through a bass amp!) was unbelievable. SO dirty, so (god I hate saying it...) analogue.

I found it great for basses and special effects.

and leads, arpeggios, percussions and basedrum (it can create one of the most heavy basedrum i ever heard just with it's selfoscillation of the filter u can can hear it a little bit towards the of my little sample)

I sure wish Korg would release this in the next legacy package but I doubt because it is already "somewhat" represented in the MS2000.

first at all i doubt that software can recreate this sound (and believe me i tested a lot VST Synths) and second i doubt that Korg releases more vintage synths as VSti

Back on topic I had the good fortune to 'own' a MonoPoly for a while.. It remains my most favorite synth, full stop.!
