Great little poly synth
This synth offers a lot for the modest (for a fully analogue synth) price: 2 oscillators, LFO, delay, frequency filters, up to 16 step sequencer, arpeggiator, motion record, midi and beat sync, and much much more.
It is a lot of fun to use: recording up to 4 motion sequences (yes, you can record tweaking your filter knob!), odd time sequences, analogue delay (!), not mentioning modulations, envelopes, and all sorts of different things.
A tiny display is just great visualisation tool, it is actually very engaging to see how the waveform actually changes when you twerk the knobs.
Great first synth to learn the basics of sound synthesis, capable of creating deep, reach sound (especially if processed through some external effects). More than reasonably priced. Nice look and stylish wooden back panel included!
It lacks midi thru, which many (me included) would appreciate, but not a big deal.
Overall: well done KORG.

Good Synth
Great synth for the price. The sound is good and the polyphony is a plus. Don't hesitate on this one!

Simple Analog Synthesiser
I like its simplicity. It has it's own unique sound signature. An external effects unit could be a great add on to this synthesizer.

Nice synth for the bucks
Having an analog polyphonic synth under one thousand euros is quite something! Well builded, no woobly pots, a good keyboard feeling - not at all that "made in China" plastic feeling.
The only cons I have is that this synth is missing the low end. Only when creating sounds in the "mono" voice mode, you can access a suboscillator that gives more fatness to the sound.
Otherwise, you have to improve the low end using an external hardware or by post processing.
This is why I cannot give 5 stars but only 4.
