Korg KingKORG Neo 37-Key Virtual Analog Synthesizer & Vocoder

KingKORG, the acclaimed and powerful Virtual Analog synth, is back in a compact 37 full-size key model with fresh new sounds, a great vocoder, and a refreshed look. The KingKORG NEO combines a classic analog-like synth layout with swift, intuitive editing — offering an unmatched level of depth and flexibility for today's musician.

Powerful XMT Sound Engine

KingKORG NEO features Korg's XMT (eXpanded Modelling Technology) virtual analog sound engine. Pre-set oscillator algorithms let you quickly shape rich, stage-ready tones without laborious manual adjustments. Choose from 138 oscillator types across analog, noise, DWGS, PCM, and MIC IN categories — from classic sawtooth and square waves to complex noise and PCM textures.

Iconic Modelled Filters

18 filter types across LPF, HPF, and BPF — including models inspired by iconic '70s monophonic synths, '80s polyphonic synths, and Korg's own MS-20. Filters self-oscillate at high resonance for classic analog character and extreme sonic textures.

16-Band Vocoder

A balanced XLR mic input on the front panel and an included high-quality microphone let you dive into vocoding instantly. The 16-band vocoder rivals dedicated vocoder machines, with formant shift, formant hold, and per-band level/pan control. Timbre B can be used as a modulator in place of the mic input for seamless synth/voice blending.

300 Preset Programs

200 preset + 100 user programs across 8 categories (SYNTH, LEAD, BASS, and more) — all stage-ready and crafted for the modern music maker.

Masterful Effects

Three master effect slots plus a 2-band EQ:

- PRE FX: Distortion, Decimator, Ring Mod, GT.Amp, EP.Amp, Tone

- MOD FX: Flanger, Chorus, U-Vibe, Tremolo, Phaser, Rotary

- REV/DELAY: Hall, Room, Plate, Tape Echo, Mod Delay, BPM Delay
