The Korg DS-10
So I waited since July for this little number to come out, but it just took forever. Finally I saw that it was coming out the 4th, it arrived at my house on the 6th. This little bastard is a cartridge that’s being sold for the Nintendo DS (an awesome system, I love Mario Kart). The unique thing about the DS is the touch screen and the level of ergonomic accessbility.
This program simulates a Korg MS-10 from 1978 and incorporates some slightly newer control functions from KORG like the Kaoss pad which creates somewhat randomized phrases within certain designated parameters. All in all, it is very cool, and while I haven’t found a specific niche for it yet, I’m sure it will come in handy somewhere along the line.

In the meantime, I recorded myself with the DS-10 onto my Zoom H4 which led as an audio i/o to my laptop. If you have a DS, hopefully this will motivate you to go out and buy it. It’s spectacular.
