Welcome to Bad Gear, the show about the world's most hated audio tools. Today we are going to talk about the Korg MS20 Mini analog synthesizer. Is this official clone of the legendary Korg MS20 mono synth worthy of its legacy in spite of the reduced size, atrocious build quality and questionable circuit design? Should I get the Korg MS20 FS??? Is it yet another excuse to get greatsounding instruments into this meme video? AudioPilz!!! Not Again!!!

Thanks to Klangfarbe for lending me one of their MS20 Mini floor models:
