Technical doc is easy to find.
I have not been MS20 so I do not know if it is completely faithful to the original. The tests say yes, then ...

UTILIZATION

The manual is not bad I think useful. The commands available on the front, a button / function is great, but when we returned in the modular part, better know what you are doing. As this is not my case, I'm glad to have a manual with examples of patches and explanations on the functioning of the beast!
otherwise, the keyboard is completely playable. I guess it depends on the style of play, but it really is not bad. After it's true that I do not have big fingers ...

SOUNDS

ouiiiii!
He yells angrily!
Esp the part is great. And the addition of midi / usb is a gain invaluable when making sounds on his computer with apps and other machines!
Coupled with a delay, it's magic!
I was so happy in receiving I made a video:


Well, it's quick, I fly the machine, but it always sounds more to get an idea.

OVERALL OPINION

I had a MS 10 is fifteen years but it was not for me and since I was drooling over. But it was too expensive. Korg thank you for this re-release! It is a machine that made me really want, and I'm not disappointed! Especially at this price!
He must spend some time on it to tame (something I have not had time to do yet), but it feels great potential.
I already have a VA (the Korg R3), a super bass station and evolver: the complete ms 20 good stuff, it is very different from these machines, of course r3 but also two other analog monos.
I had the opportunity to buy a cheap Polysix long ago, hearing the grain of the old cuckoo, I regret not having done so, they could discuss both.
I read a lot of reviews on the breath, I admit that it does not bother me at all, I have not even gaffe, but I'm not a stickler for clean sounds ...
