Hol-lee crap.. Drones, washes, dub, FX, metallic, rhythmic, percussive. It's a toy but you put this in to the hands of someone who knows synths and I promise you'll be shocked at what comes out. I think the issue here is there are a lot of people who have never heard cheap analog equipment and don't appreciate the character it imparts. This thing is noisy as hell, it's always making some sort of hiss or drone, especially when you put the delay on thick. The delay is cheap but in the most amazing way, it just mangles the hell out of everything and it is constantly losing top end so you can keep piling more on. The LFO doesn't act predictably and when its in use you can't always know what kind of pitch it's going to make but it's brilliant! This is the simplest synth I have ever used. To be honest I thought I'd get bored of it quickly, but I find myself spending hours playing with it. You get 3 things to affect, LFO, Cut off & Delay, I'm shocked just how much I can get just by doing some knob tweaking. Some things to keep in mind. - Don't think you're going to play melodies, it's a ribbon controller, they work best for sliding notes and droning sounds (think 50's scifi). - It's noisy and might not be suited for most musical styles. I can very easily see it being used for industrial, metal, dubstep, techo, electro, psychedelic, experimental & abstract - The delay is the key part, crank the time and feedback all the way up hit some notes. Now play around with the time and the cutoff knobs.. it gets really crazy. - If you want to use it in a song you'll want to sample it. My advice hit record in your audio recording program play around with it for 10-15 mins and then chop out the stuff you like for samples. I can't wait to pull this thing open and see what I can hook some pan pots (knobs) to. This thing is just begging to be modded. Review: More fun than you should be allowed to have at this price! - The Monotron Delay is tremendous fun, and I use it in a lot of different ways. It's great to throw in my purse and noodle around on when I have time -- it takes up almost no space, which is perfect. It's great to add as an FX instrument when I jam -- it gives great sci fi or other kinds of sounds to add to a mix, and adds something really distinctive. And it's great to use as a small, affordable delay effect to add to an instrument -- especially something like a Volca or something similar where the instrument's portable and you're already using a 1/8" jack, where it's going to be easier to deal with than a pedal effect. One good/bad thing depending on what you want is that the delay isn't a pristine digital effect -- there's some grittiness there and higher pitches will die off over time instead of being perfectly preserved. But this is pretty much by design -- perfect digital effects are available in many places if you want them, and this is intended to have a distinctive sound more like an old tape delay. I'm certainly not an expert in all the things this can do, but if you're not used to playing around with delay effects, it's pretty versatile. You can just put a decaying echo after everything, or you can turn up the feedback until it repeats everything rhythmically over time. Which is to say, you can use it as a sort of looper, though the high end will decay before long. If you can dial in sounds you like, you can even turn it into a weird sort of drum machine, repeating percussive sounds per measure or per quarter note, depending on the time interval you set. Also, like a tape delay, you can mess with the pitch as it's repeating by twisting the time knob, which yields some cool effects depending on what you're repeating. In my opinion, this is the best pocket instrument out there. ## Features - Space delay with rate and intensity controls offers analog-style echoes - New pitch LFO with selectable waveshape and intensity and shape controls - Wide-range ribbon controller keyboard - Original analog (VCF) filter taken from the classic ms-10 & ms-20 - Built-in speaker and battery power for go anywhere analog sound ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B00684KFAM | | Best Sellers Rank | #6,715 in Musical Instruments ( See Top 100 in Musical Instruments ) #4 in Synthesizer & Workstation Keyboards | | Body Material | Synthetische Materialien | | Brand | KORG | | Brand Name | KORG | | Color | Black | | Connector Type | Auxiliary | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 1,652 Reviews | | Finish Type | Painted | | Global Trade Identification Number | 04959112089686 | | Included Components | Tasche | | Item Dimensions | 6.4 x 1.6 x 9.2 inches | | Item Type Name | Mixer Accessory | | Item Weight | 6.4 ounces | | Item dimensions L x W x H | 6.4 x 1.6 x 9.2 inches | | Manufacturer | Korg | | Material | Synthetische Materialien | | Model Name | MONOTRONDLY | | Model Number | MONOTRONDLY | | Number of Items | 1 | | Part Number | MONOTRONDLY | | UPC | 717943124082 132067558726 755756644649 | | Warranty Description | 1 year manufacturer. | ## Product Details - **Brand:** KORG - **Color:** Black - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 6.4 x 1.6 x 9.2 inches - **Material:** Synthetische Materialien - **Model Name:** MONOTRONDLY ## Images ![Korg Monotron Delay Analog Ribbon Synthesizer - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61nSlw-6psL.jpg) ![Korg Monotron Delay Analog Ribbon Synthesizer - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61EIIymAFyL.jpg) ![Korg Monotron Delay Analog Ribbon Synthesizer - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/512-AY-hp0L.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Style** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Fantastic little monster for dirt cheap.. *by D***S on December 14, 2012* I'm absolutely shocked by the incredible amount of different sounds I can get out of this little rock star..

This little gem sounds great, delving into cool retro synth sounds. Using it doesn't require a massive knowledge of synthesizers. It's so incredibly fun. I own to 2 as a strange matter of fact. I did some left field work recording both on separate tracks, bounced them down and layered more. This is a great thing to have. The value is perfect for this kind of thing so get it now. ..............Donnie P ## Frequently Bought Together - Korg Monotron Delay Analog Ribbon Synthesizer - Stylophone Beat - Compact Stylus Drum Machine | 4 Drum Kits & 4 Bass Sounds | Rhythm Machine Beat Maker | Drum Loop Machine - Stylophone The Original Pocket Electronic Synthesizer | Synth Musical Instrument | Synthesizer Keyboard | Stylophone Instrument Synth --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.be/products/2488260-korg-monotron-delay-analog-ribbon-synthesizer](https://www.desertcart.be/products/2488260-korg-monotron-delay-analog-ribbon-synthesizer) --- *Product available on Desertcart Belgium* *Store origin: BE* *Last updated: 2026-10-23*
