For sale: Korg Prologue 8 49-key analog synthesizer in excellent condition. Sale includes the synth, 8 1/4ft high quality IEC power cable, and the original box (but unfortunately, not the original packing / foam inserts). Note, the original box is a little beat up. We will supplement packing materials and double-box for safe shipping.
Details:
Cleaned and tested the unit thoroughly.
All tacts, pots, encoders, wheels, and keys are responsive and 100% functional.
There are some extremely minor blemishes on the unit. Mostly just very minor marks on the wood sides and a mark or two on the back of the unit. I would list as near-mint / excellent. Please examine photos carefully.
The Korg Prologue 8 is a professional-grade 49-key analog synthesizer offering eight voices of polyphony, dual VCOs, a digital multi-engine, and built-in DSP effects. Combining analog warmth with digital flexibility, it features a bi-timbral architecture, studio-quality reverb and delay, and a user-customizable oscillator section that supports third-party development. Its powerful 16-slot modulation matrix, OLED oscilloscope, and aluminum and wood construction make it both a performance-ready synth and a deep sound design tool. This unit is in excellent condition and ready to anchor any stage or studio setup.
