The MS2000 is a small keyboard for anyone who wants to try the synth without spending a fortune on prestigous brands. Here we have the Korg sound (closer to MicroKorg than to Ms 20 obviously), the analog look and simplicity of everything in the facade. Basically Korg had released it at a time when the 'analog' revival made its appearance. I have always found it to be inflated to call this device 'MS' because in the end you are far from the potential of a MS20/10 (power, robustness, ease of modulation, construction. ..).
UTILIZATION
For utilization the manual is simple and clear enough, so on this point it is well done. For sounds, do not expect realistic sounds obviously but more like an enjoyable emulation of its close analogue synthse MicroKorg but also more evolved and with greater possibilities .
SOUNDS
The factory presets are to vomit and can put one off, I do not understand Korg, Roland and Clavia Waldorf why theey stick their Techno / trance shit demos. I am sure that people interested by such synths fled as soon as they heard the presets of these machines.
So then you have to cut the sequencer, effects, and reprogram for yourself for even the sounds of the MS2000, you will be surprised and impressed because in the end the machine can deploy sounds of 70's / 80s/90 's. The machine holds the road well on DIFFERENT levels, basses, leads, and Fx
Attention however it has absolutely no substitute for the grain and power of a true analog synth (MS20, Korg Polysix / or Sigma-SCI PRO ONE) but with a compressor and a good effect can make a good impression.
OVERALL OPINION
I have been using it for a few months and sold it because the sound is too, too fine to establish itself and give a real presence (plugin Evolver ct ...).
For the price second hand it is worth it especially
-For beginners in synth and wishing to try their hand on a simple and enjoyable device to play.
-To add discrete sounds in a song (FX, atmosphere ...)
-For the scene it is very light because it is robust and versatile enough.
