Model Overview
At the core of the KORG KingKORG Neo is a virtual analogue engine that turns every chord into a rich and expressive sound. It blends the power of classic instruments with the innovation of modern technology, striking the perfect balance between familiar analogue warmth and the flexibility of digital processing.
The instrument offers three oscillator units, allowing you to shape sounds ranging from deep, thunderous bass to delicate synth layers. Mixing different oscillator types opens the door to hundreds of unique possibilities. The sound library, inspired by KORG’s legendary history, instantly transports you into the atmosphere of iconic synths of the past.
The controls are designed to feel playful and intuitive: turn the filter and the mood of your piece changes, add effects and your track reveals new dimensions, while straightforward knobs deliver instant results without hours of tweaking. Onboard effects such as reverb, delay, modulation and the valve processor add both depth and power, whether you’re in the studio or on stage.
