Korg microKORG2 Synthesizer & Vocoder

For over 20 years, the microKORG has defined portable synthesis—appearing on countless recordings and stages worldwide. Now, the legend returns reimagined as the microKORG2: more powerful, more expressive, and more inspiring than ever.

The microKORG2 retains the beloved compact body, 37-note natural-touch mini keybed, signature program dial, and dedicated vocoder mic—but completely reinvents the sound engine, interface, and creative workflow. Its new 2.8-inch full-color IPS LCD transforms sound design with visual editing, animated parameter feedback, and even an oscilloscope view for real-time sound visualization. 

With a new virtual analog synthesis engine, the microKORG2 delivers rich, dynamic tones across Classic, Modern, and Future categories. Explore 24 onboard effects—nine modulation, six delay/reverb, plus a two-band EQ—to shape and polish your sound without external gear.

Advanced Vocal Processing

Building on the original’s vocoder, the microKORG2 introduces a professional vocal processor with hard-tune pitch correction, harmonizer, and studio-grade reverb and delay. The included metal gooseneck mic makes it ready for live performance or studio recording.

Create layered performances with the built-in loop recorder—featuring dedicated record, play/stop, and undo/redo buttons. Combine it with the arpeggiator to craft complex textures and dynamic arrangements in seconds.

The redesigned mini keybed offers improved playability for chords and fast phrases. Portable and durable, the microKORG2 weighs just 2.1 kg (4.6 lbs) and runs on AC power or six AA batteries, perfect for musicians on the move.

The microKORG2 combines classic aesthetics with a refreshed metallic finish, rugged side panels, and an intuitive layout built for today’s creators. Whether you’re a synth veteran or a newcomer, it bridges vintage character with modern flexibility—continuing the microKORG’s legacy for the next generation.
