Synth Gurgles From The Behringer K-2 Semi-Modular (Korg MS-20 Clone) Played With Arturia Keystep

Hi there!

I recently just bought this Behringer MS 20 "tribute" Synthesizer for the lady so she could have a semi modular synth to mess around with... it was only $200 new from sweetwater... and i couldn't pass up that opportunity!

For the uninitiated, the Korg MS 20 is a two oscillator monophonic semi-modular Synthesizer from the late 70s. it was much more affordable then say, a Moog, and is kinda known for it's scream-y self resonating filter and it's external input, allowing you to run other gear through the filter and trigger sounds.

This was basically the first time messing with it, i also picked up a used Arturia Keystep, which i thought would be perfect for playing and sequencing the K 2.

Here I am from the other night just messing with the arpeggiator and sequencer a little, demonstrating some of its sounds!

It's a classic, crusty sound for sure and while we could debate all night on the ethics of this piece, it is surely a steal at $200! my friend had a MS 10 back in the day that was i think around $700 dollars used and only had one oscillator, aside from whatever other features this one has!
