KORG M1:

A pleasantly "warm" digital synthesizer!

Description

When the KORG M1 digital synthesizer was released in 1988, it became a massive hit and eventually sold 250,000 units, making it the best-selling synthesizer of all time. So why was it so successful? For the time, it offered a great set of features: 16-note polyphony, a keyboard sensitive to velocity and aftertouch, MIDI compatibility, and on-board effects. Further, there were several preset sounds that were relatively novel for many users, including exotic instruments and slow-attack ambient pads. The KORG M1 was used prolifically, including by Madonna and house music artists. With its broad palette of sounds and effects, the KORG M1 blew up and became an iconic part of pop culture.

This keyboard is in Good condition. As signs of aging, the unit has some scratches, scuffs, and spots on the surface(please check photos). There is some dust inside the display, but has no effect on playing(please check photos). The power cable is not original.
