Designed to help players better express their individuality and style, Korg unveils special limited edition versions of its popular X50 and microKORG synths. Each new model has a distinct look that offers players a unique stage presence as well as built-in collector's value.

With aesthetics that are both retro and contemporarily hip, each synth features a bold design: the body of the Limited Edition X50 (X50-CF) is covered in a camouflage finish, and the Limited Edition microKORG (microKORG-BK) features vintage-style, reverse-color keys (the black and white colors are reversed). Both keyboards provide the same functions and features as their regular line counterparts.

Both models will be in stores by February 2008 at select KORG dealers. The limited edition versions and the regular line offerings will be available concurrently. The microKORG-BK has an MSRP of $550.00.The X50-CF has an MSRP of $950.00.

The lightweight, 61-key X50 synthesizer delivers high-quality sounds, a user friendly interface and convenient USB computer connectivity in a streamlined package designed for performing and computer-based musicians. It features Korg's HI (Hyper Integrated) synthesis technology as found in the acclaimed TRITON series. Its modern, stylish body contains integrated handles for easy transport.

The microKORG is a portable, affordable synthesizer offering a variety of tools for performers, producers, computer musicians and beginners alike. It delivers modeling synthesis, vocoding, real-time control, onboard effects and external audio processing, plus Korg's renowned quality and sound. The microKORG's 37-mini-key compact chassis also makes it ideal for musicians or DJs working in a limited-space environment.
