Korg has been a leading name in synthesizers since the 1970s, establishing itself with the creation of classic analogue synthesizers like the MS-20 and ARP Odyssey. The MS-20, introduced in 1978, became a beloved instrument for its gritty, aggressive sound and semi-modular architecture, making it a favourite in genres from punk to techno. Korg’s recreation of the ARP Odyssey brought a legendary duophonic synthesizer from the 1970s back to life, preserving its unique sound while adding modern features. These early instruments set the stage for Korg’s reputation as a forward-thinking company with a deep respect for analogue synthesis.
In more recent years, Korg has continued to innovate with the Korg M1, which defined the sound of the late 80s and early 90s with its digital synthesis and built-in sequencer, and the Korg Volca Series, offering compact and affordable analogue and digital instruments that allow musicians to build portable modular setups. The Korg Minilogue and Monologue have also made waves, providing analogue sound with modern features like programmability and built-in effects. Across decades, Korg has balanced accessibility with innovation, creating instruments that cater to professionals and newcomers alike.

A pedal, in the context of music, refers to a device that modifies the sound of an instrument, typically electric guitar or keyboards, by altering audio signals as they pass through it. Pedals can serve a variety of functions, including effects like distortion, reverb, delay, modulation, and compression. They are commonly used by musicians to enhance their sound, create unique audio textures, or achieve specific sonic qualities that would be difficult to produce with the instrument alone. Pedals are often housed in sturdy enclosures with footswitches that allow musicians to engage or disengage effects during performance easily.
Pedals can be analogue or digital, with each type offering different characteristics and qualities. Analog pedals, for example, often provide warm and rich tonalities due to their continuous signal processing, while digital pedals can emulate a wide range of effects and often include more advanced features, such as presets and programmable settings. Many musicians use multiple pedals in a “pedalboard” setup, connecting them in series to create complex soundscapes. With their versatility and ability to transform an instrument’s tone, pedals have become essential tools for performers and composers across various genres, from rock and jazz to electronic and ambient music.
Sustain refers to the duration a sound is held after the initial attack and decay phases, and it is one of the key stages in a synthesizer’s ADSR envelope (Attack, Decay, Sustain, Release). When a note is played on a synth, the sustain level determines how long the sound remains at a consistent volume while the key is being held down. Unlike attack and decay, which are measured in time, sustain is a level—essentially the steady volume that a sound maintains until the key is released. For instance, if the sustain is set high, the note will continue to sound loudly; if it’s set low, the sound will drop to a softer volume.
The concept of sustain is essential for shaping how a sound behaves over time. In musical contexts, sustain allows for the emulation of acoustic instruments like strings or organs, where notes can be held continuously at a certain volume. It is also useful for creating pads, drones, or long atmospheric sounds. Adjusting the sustain level can drastically change the character of a sound—keeping it high can give a sense of continuity or smoothness, while lowering it can make the sound more percussive or short-lived. By creatively manipulating sustain within an ADSR envelope, musicians can achieve greater expressiveness and variety in their synthesizer patches.
