KORG MS-20 V is a virtual instrument that captures the raw power and character of the classic analog synth known for its aggressive and punchy sounds. This software delivers a faithful recreation of the original MS-20, enabling musicians to explore a wide range of sonic textures from gritty analog tones to sharp, cutting timbres. Designed for modern music production, it combines vintage attitude with contemporary workflow enhancements to inspire creativity.

The MS-20 V meticulously emulates every component of the original hardware, including its distinctive oscillators, filters, and signal processing capabilities. The filters, modeled after the iconic KORG IC-35 and OTA chip designs, produce that unmistakable screaming effect that has made the MS-20 legendary. The semi-modular architecture includes a patch bay for custom signal routing, an external signal processor with envelope follower and sidechaining, and a modulation generator with morphing waveforms, offering a hands-on experience with complex sound shaping.

This virtual instrument integrates seamlessly with popular DAWs and supports standalone operation with MIDI controllers. It features dual oscillators with advanced modulation options, dual envelope generators with multiple modes, a 12-step sequencer inspired by KORG’s classic SQ-10, and a flexible effects section with 16 effects across multiple slots. Expanded polyphony and support for microtuning and expressive MIDI control make the MS-20 V a powerful tool for both classic analog sounds and innovative music production.
