Gadget Envy: Korg DS-10 Synthesizer for Nintendo DS

11/20/08, 3:38 pm EST

What It Is: A music application that converts the portable Nintendo DS system into a pretty excellent Korg synthesizer.

Who It’s For: Timbaland (or anybody else looking to play around with tune building on the go).

Why It’s Worthy: The DS-10 plugs into the Nintendo DS and turns it from a machine that plays Nintendogs into a pretty powerful portable music studio. The tiny package contains two synths, a drum machine and a sequencer that allows you to build farily dynamic little tracks using the smooth, easy DS touch screen. And despite the size and limited scope of the DS’ speakers, it sounds tremendous.

Our Only Complaint: There’s no tutorial and getting into it can be difficult if you don’t already have experience with sequencers.

Cost/Where to Get It: $39.99; more info at the official site.

My copy of KORG came in from Amazon the other day and it’s awesome! Forget an iPod, make your own music!
