KORG DS-10 Synthesizer

For such a tiny DS card to potentially do so much is nothing short of astounding. You won't sound like the next Oakenfold or Tiësto without a decent amount of effort, but the more you invest yourself, the more surprised you'll be at exactly what you can accomplish with this innovative, groundbreaking piece of software. Keyboard? DJ tool? Game? It's all of these things.

"On the other hand, for $40, you could do a lot worse in terms of audio tools. If you know an audiophile who loves to play with drum machines, or who’s starting to dabble in sequencing or midi authoring, KORG is an excellent way to set them on the path to something greater. If you’re the kind of guy who just can’t resist playing with the synthesizers down at your local music store, KORG is your kind of software, and will certainly provide you with some good practice and enjoyable diversion — if not a fully-featured, professional experience."
