Korg KMS-30 1990’s - Metal

Untested, as-is condition.

The Korg KMS-30 is a vintage MIDI and analog synchronizer introduced in the mid-1980s to bridge modern MIDI equipment with older analog drum machines and gear.Key Features and Functions

• Format Conversion: Translates MIDI clock signals into DIN sync or tape sync formats, and vice versa.[1, 2]
• PPQ Switching: Features switchable 24 PPQ (Roland standard, like the TR-808 or TB-303) and 48 PPQ (Korg standard, like the KPR-77) clock rates to let different vintage devices run in time together. [1, 2]
• Tape Sync: Allows users to "stripe" an audio track on a multi-track tape recorder with a sync tone to lock analog gear and sequencers to tape playback.
• Connections: Equipped with one MIDI In, two MIDI Outs, DIN sync sockets, and tape/RCA I/O. [1, 2, 3]
• Power: Typically runs on a 9V AC adapter (center-negative style common for vintage gear).
