KORG DS-10 synthesiser for DS in October News • News • Eurogamer.net

News DS

Make love to a musical robot.

Nintendo will unleash the KORG DS-10 synthesiser across Europe on 10th October, making musical dreams come true. But probably only in Germany.

This clever piece of kit spreads the important-sounding KORG KAOSS PadPad across the touch-screen, adds the ability to save up to 18 creative sessions, plus has plenty of magical knobs to twiddle to alter electro-effects and that sort of thing.

Once you're happy, mixer channels can be opened, drum beats laid down, and smash bang wallop you're Kraftwerk.

That may take some time, but friends can use Wi-Fi to connect to each other and do, well, something - presumably share music.

Bop over to Eurogamer TV for a trailer of how KORG DS-10 works.

I've played the Japanese version of this, it's pretty great!

The only major problem is that patterns lengths are limited to 16 divisions, which means I couldn't fit the bassline to Ghostbusters in a single pattern

This is really good, guys. Well worth importing as it is, as everything's in English.

Got the Japanese version. It's genius. If top of the pops was still on some wag in a band would be using this for the keyboards.

Been waiting a while for this. It definitely sounds intriguing.
I know there's already homebrew apps floating around that mimic the Kaoss Pad already, but this is all official, and I've heard good things about it.

It's fantastic. Through good headphones/speakers it's capable of belting out amazing sounds. The drum sequencer is a little limited, but the synths and Kaos pad give endless knob-twiddling possibilities.

Sounds like a job for the Electro Gypsy.

And no, don't worry, that isn't a badly disguised link to anything related to Rick Astley.

Edit: Fixed link.
