MS-20 Mini : A toy version of the MS-20

11 years ago

Okay, it's more than just a toy. But the small size and rather flimsy build doesn't exude quality. But then I guess you can't expect a lot for the low price?

Sonically it sounds fine, I've never owned an MS20 before so I can't comment on the vintageness. I suspect this is what an MS20 sounded like as new before all the crackles appeared.

If you like PWM be prepared to get drilling and soldering, since this synth has never had PWM unless you like manually twiddling the front panel knobs. It is an easy modification though.
