The Hurry.

I’m a huge fan of casio keyboards, chiptunes and retro synths. So, I almost blew a gasket when i saw that AQi is releasing software for the Nintendo DS that is based on the Korg MS-10 synth. Unfortunately it’s not coming out until July (in Japan, so who knows how long before it will show up in the states). Price is supposed to be about $50.

Specs will apparently be:

Two patchable dual-oscillator analog synth simulators: - Four-part drum machine that uses sounds created with the analog synth simulator - Six-track (analog synth x 2, drum machine x 4) /16-step sequencer - Delay, chorus and flanger sound effects available from the mixing board - Three note-entry modes: touch-control screen, keyboard screen, matrix screen - Real-time sound control mode via touch-control screen - Exchange sounds and songs and play multiple units simultaneously through a wireless communications link.
