If you make a mistake, you can use the FIX and CANCEL functions to go back and re-record. In order to undo (cancel) a layer,
you first have to save a FIX point…

1. When you find a point you like, hold down the LOOP PLAY/REC button and turn the dial to "

FIX

," then release the button. It'll

take a second or two to save your work so far.

Note:

Get in the habit of doing this often, so you can always undo the last layer!

.

To return to the FIX point at any time, just hold down the LOOP PLAY/REC button and turn the dial to “

Can

.” Everything you’ve

done since you FIXed the loop will be erased.

Program #

Effect Type

Description

Program 03

Tell Min

A Theremin-style vocal lead… Try this with the scale off.

Program 12

XY Scale

Two leads in one! Both the X and Y axis control pitch.

Program 14

Digital Talk

Use the Y axis to control the formant shape.

Program 20

Trumpet

Lots of fun… try switching scales on the fly to get your jazz on.

Program 36

Boost Bass

Room-shaking bass, with resonance on the Y axis.

Program 57

E Piano Chord

This is two chords in one, either a major 7

th

on the top, or a minor 7

th

on the bottom.

Program 69

Random

Very useful when you need a b-movie computer sound! You might want
to say “Danger” over and over in a monotone voice while playing this.

Program 74

Dot Eat

Please insert 25 cents to continue.

Program 82

Conga

Finally, Korg has a place in backwoods drum circles around the world.
