can I run OTHER instruments through the microKORG? YES 

when you add oscillator 2 into the mix, set it’s “osc mod” to rng and boom, ring modulation on your audio signal. sequencing the notes can make some insane sounds

What would you like to hear running through the microKORG? Have you used this feature? Will you use this feature?

So I guess you can say things are getting pretty serious

I'm wanting to run a Roland VT-4 voice transformer and use the keys to plays it's effects. Would I use basically the same process of hooking it up to the micro korg?

sampling is gonna get insane, could cut a youtube clip, put in on a loop in an app on your phone, run through the headphone jack in, and then connect to the mpc and you can track out with eq and other effects.

Your videos are always excellent and informative. Thank you for sharing your ideas and knowledge with us. Always a pleasure

Also try and plug midi out from Korg to the midi in of your fav synth rack and control the filter (and more) from those synth racks using the micro Korg filter knob. Life changing!

DONT COME AROUND HERE NO MORE

You’re awesome! I’ve owned a micro Korg for years and I’m barely realizing the potential of the audio in feature. This video is a exactly what I needed to see. Very informative plus some asmr vibes. Lol. Thanks 🙏

Love your style, and your videos. Learning a lot! thanks for your effort!

Thanks for the video, please increase your volume, can't hear you on my laptop at max volume.

Your videos are fantastic. Thank you for unlocking some of the secrets of the microkorg.

Very interesting, i've just bought a MicroKorg off ebay today, so obviously your channel is proving most informative. I did have a Korg MS2000R some years ago but stupidly i sold it, along with a few other modules that i since regretted selling, as you do. I bought the Minilogue last year and absolutely love that, it's the hands on manipulation that makes all the difference, rather than having to delve into numerous edit pages just to alter something. I also have a Korg Prophecy which is a nightmare to edit, same as the CS1x, although that isn't quite as bed. Was wondering if the external audio i send into the Minilogue can be kept rolling with the arpeggiator activated, as you have done with the Micro. As with this tutorial, you have to keep a key depressed to let audio through on the Minilogue, so maybe i'll check out if the aprpeggiator works in the same way. Nice one Daniel.

Is it possible to apply only FX for external audio without other synth features (e.g. filter, ...)? I would like to use Microkorg as a second synth and also as a FX for the first one.

a lot of button turning for not very much variety:)

Very helpful, thanks

yoooooo

Yooooo a fellow Kastner!

"super retro old school stuff"

Can I run my Beatbuddy drum pedal through the microkorg?

Love this video Daniel! That 505 sounds great processed via the Korg.

again! i watch it again

Thanks bru👏

Can you also plug it into the vocodor input instead of the mic?

Thanks man, these videos have been super helpful 👍🏻

Hey Daniel, I'm really enjoying your videos and learning a lot! I'm having some inconsistent results with running a drum machine through the microkorg...sometimes it works perfectly and other times not so much. I swear I'm doing the same thing to get started every time and I can't figure out what's going on. Most often the problem is that I can't make the original, unprocessed drum machine sound go away...its always audible even under the processed drum sound that comes when I play the keys or arpeggiate. Second, about half the time I hear the unprocessed drum but when I play the keys I still get the original synth tones. When this happens I'm unable to affect the drum sound with any of the knobs, it's just kinda there under the synth. Any help you can offer is appreciated. Thanks!

Hi, I’m having trouble independently manipulating the volume level of the microkorg and my volca beats.

Thank you Daniel! I just subscribed, quick question, an luck you can do a follow up syncing the tempo of the TR-505 to the microKorg?

I've got the Alessis SR19 output hooked to the Line 2 input of the Micrkorg, and the Global setting and OSC 1 setting as specified but no ALessis coming through the Micro Keys. Can anyone help? Thanks

You might have to hit a key again to get those interesting sounds Btw thank you. You were the ONLY person who's instructions helped me sync my microkorg and it's software.. twas a frustrating doozy

That beat loop sounds like 'Cry Little Sister' from the lost boys movie.

Gonna do this with my Boss DR-220

if do this and have stereo out of the microkorg will the stereo sound be for both instruments or just the microkorg?

Even the Electribe 2 with audio input processed sound is not very good almost distorted

You have most likely done this already by now, but you could try running the drum machine through the vocoder condenser jack lol

I use two aux sends from my mixer table to do this . Nice for the vocoder modulator / carrier ;)

I wanna get the microkorg XL+, can similar things be achieved there?

This is great. Would I be able to play a saxophone with a microphone through the microkorg?

hello! can the microkorg make a pacht whit one layer voice whit input signal and a layer 2 whit and internAl sound?

Was just gonna ask u if u could apply an lfo to external audio but u answered it That's great, would sound better passing a bass or something thru the mk and adding a bit of lfo vibrato

Can you pitch shift the input audio with the keys? I'd love to run a guitar loop in and play the incoming sound with the keys :p

Yay! So glad you made a video about this!

Thanks man you answered what I was looking for

What's that picture in the black frame on your wall.? It looks like some sort of treasure map. 😆

I've watched a few of your videos about using instruments through the microkorg but I keep having one issue off and on. Sometimes Ill fix it, save the patch and after the save I get it again. I definitely made sure to use latch, no attack and max release but I keep having to trigger the arpeggiator again because the volume gradually decreases. What am I missing?

This is great stuff. Have you that plugKey yet?

Can I do that straight from an audio player with what cable,?

Can I plug an amp on the speakers output and trhu aux a music device?

Hmm I’m trying to get osc1 to make noise when I play my bass and press a note but no sound comes out. Maybe it’s my korg? Great video either way!

Can I do it simply? NO Can I do anything without drowning in menus? Can I play keys alongside external input? Can I apply more than one effect at the time? Can I do anything in real time while playing with one hand? Is there a sequencer?

Thanks for posting this

Also, have you listened to Phoenix's Ti Amo album? Each track has great synths, definitely recommend 👌

Cool video. Thank You!!!

Great video!

Recently got a TR-626 and I'm definitely going to try this.

Does anybody understand how to put the jacks in where? I dont get it to work haha

Sick! I figured this could work but wasnt exactly sure how. thank you!

Saving to my uKORG playlist. .. Thank You, Daniel.

Genius

wonderful all around

Good video. Thanks man. Got another sub dude!

Thanks for this tutorial. I am currently thinking about using the microkorg as a midi controler for other hardware synths, like an Arturia Keystep, but with 37 keys and a synth engine. What is your opinion on this? Do you believe the microkorg would actually qualify for that job?

My Korg is not changing the distortion of the sound of my other instrument , it isn’t changing the sound at all

havent seen the full video but already liked it

Can u run audio in to make a lofi sound? thanks

SOUNDS LIKE TOM PETTY KEEP UP THE INFORMATIVE VIBE LOVED IT

Including the minilogue xd and non-XD Which one is easier to maneuver? Or which one would you choose out of the 3, including the MK? I’m attempting to use a DJ controller, and beatpad/sampler with a synth master keyboard and I need help choosing a first synth. The wiring and different choices of instruments have been egging me on since I’m beginning musician

can u sample w microkorg?

I got excited because I thought you meant actual instruments. A pad with buttons is not an instrument, it's a tool, but definitely requires 0 music theory knowledge to operate. Therefore, not an instrument.
