OPEN THE NEXT CHAPTER

Korg has always taken a position of leadership – from their early days making analog synthesizers, through their pioneering of the workstation concept, into their state-of-the-art modeling/DSP synthesis and effects developments, their innovations in digital recording, and their implementation of the ground-breaking KARMA® technology. OASYS brings together over 40 years of refined innovation in making the finest and most intuitive and musical instruments in the world.

Korg designed OASYS to provide a full set of audio production tools to the demanding musician, and to reflect the changing nature of today’s music making process. OASYS brings together advanced MIDI sequencing, 16-track audio HD recording, a flexible MIDI control surface, a CD burner, studio quality effects processing, second-generation KARMA technology, along with the world’s most powerful synthesizer into one single, elegant instrument.

OASYS is not only an entirely new instrument, but a completely new platform to support Korg innovation for years to come. Powered by an ultra fast computer processor, and running newly-developed proprietary software atop Linux underpinnings, OASYS offers all the benefits of a variable software system, backed by a dedicated operating system and the hardware integrity that can only come from a fully-integrated instrument design. New synthesis methods for creating sound (EXi Expansion Instruments), new effects (EXf Expansion Effects), and additional ROM libraries (EXs Expansion Sample Libraries) can be added, ensuring that OASYS will remain the centerpiece of your musical world well into the future.

For technology to be beneficial, it must remain accessible. Highlighted by a 10.4” color TouchView display, the front panel features a vast array of assignable control elements – pads, sliders, joysticks, knobs, ribbon, etc… all designed to provide effortless fingertip control. And while OASYS is a world unto itself, it can still play nice with others. The back panel offers a wealth of analog and digital inputs and outputs, including USB 2.0.
