Korg MS-20 controlled by guitar

- Using my Gibson SG to "play" the Korg MS-20 FS, thanks to some clever patching. A cool and unusual feature of the MS-20 is that you can control the oscillators via an external pitch and they will (mostly) track the pitch. The sound you hear is coming from the oscillators in the synth, not the guitar. Playing the synth lead from Corey Hart's 1983 new wave hit, "I wear my sunglasses at night."
🎶I wear my sunglasses at night so I can so I can🎶
Indeed! It's an 80s classic!
The best of both worlds!
That would definitely sound more like a Sammy Hagar solo track than a Van Halen song through that M-20.
Now, if he were to play Why Can’t This Be Love, then it would sound like a Van Halen track for sure as long as he got close enough to that patch Eddie is running his Oberheim with
you look like edward norton
Lol, Ed Norton is cool.
The narrator
great !!
awesome
Thank You!
so I really need one of these my wife thinks you in advance
I like the ammunition can green housing of that synth
I agree the green does look cool.
could I also hook up my phone? Id love to run some tracks from it through the synth. Do I need a special cable or will a patch cable do
You could hook up your phone to the external input and process sounds using the envelope and the filter. You would just need a 1/4 inch adapter to connect your phone’s output if you were using the full size MS-20.
@@retrokraft aye thanks
Green?!?!?!? What the heck? What am I seeing here? Is this an old one or is this available now? LOVE that color!
Yes, the green is rad. Looks like a piece of antique military equipment. It's the Korg MS-20 FS (full size). Released a couple of years ago with four options including green, white, blue and the traditional black. If you search for it, you should be able to find it. They're still available I believe.
Dope
Yes, this is one of the coolest and most unique features of this synth.
I'd love one these greeny meanies
The green is the coolest IMO. Looks like a piece of old decommissioned military gear.
@@retrokraftI was desperate for a green one. Quite hard to come by. Settled for a black one. A fantastic noise machine in any guise though.
@@fatbobe1986 absolutely. No mater the color they are all great.
Very cool. The black cable in the signal out on top, is that where the guitar goes? or is it the bottom external signal processor signal in?
Oh wait I see now. This is MS20 not MS20 mini
@TheViolinRoom yes, the plack cable is the signal out. The guitar plugs into the external signal processor.
@retrokraft I tried it last night, but no sound came from me strumming. Gonna try again today and figure it out.
There shouldn't be much difference between ms20 mini and ms20. It's just that ms20 is slightly bigger.
@@TheViolinRoom it should work with the mini. The settings on the external processor have to be tweaked just right for it to work.
@@retrokraft Awesome. I'm gonna give it a go.
Do the matching green patch cables come with the special edition, or did you score those somewhere else? They seem perfect.
Yes they do.
Wow. That was very underwhelming.
Enjoy your day.
@@retrokraftThanks for being polite.
How is this exactly done?
Video shows the patch cord placement. You can also check out the Korg MS20 setting examples manual as this describes the basic patch:

In order to get it to work you have to spend a fair amount of time tweaking the levels and it is a bit finicky but makes for a cool effect.
The guitar is played through the envelope and filter section of the MS-20
I TURN TO HER AND SAYY.....
No hay que apurarse tanto para filmar cómo conectamos los cables. Primero hay que aprender a tocar
Where do I get a green ms20?
It’s the Korg MS-20 FS, full size reissue of the MS-20 from Korg that came out last year I think. They make them in original black and also blue, white and green (my favorite). Check Google, looks like several retailers have them in stock.
didnt work for me :/ sheeeit
I wouldn't have bothered, it sounds crap!
