1980s

1980

• Korg CX-3: One of the first Hammond B-3 clonewheel organs. It earned especially high marks for its authentic simulation of the B-3's Leslie rotating speaker, a nearly inseparable part of the original instrument's sound. An updated model called the New CX-3 was released in 2000, and uses sample-based technology, as opposed to the original's analog emulation. Both incarnations of the instrument feature a double-manual version called the BX-3. The first-generation models also included an output for the instrument to hook up to a real Leslie speaker.
• Korg Trident: At the time of its release, the Trident was the flagship of Korg's lineup. It was divided into three distinct sections – polysynth, brass and strings – and featured an on-board flanger, a rarity for any synth at the time. The Trident was capable of eight notes of polyphony, and featured a 16-program memory.^[13] An upgraded version became available in 1982.^[14]

1981

• The Korg Polysix is a 61-key, six-voice programmable synthesizer. It was released to compete with Roland's Juno-6 synth, and both keyboards shared similar features, such as a built-in chorus unit and an arpeggiator. However, the Polysix offered memory for patch storage, and its chorus unit was a fully-fledged analog delay unit capable of phaser and "ensemble" effects. The instrument was recreated in a virtual version, the PolysixEX for Korg's Legacy Collection, and is also available as an add-on for the OASYS synth. It is also one of the included synth engines with the Kronos line of synths.
• Korg Mono/Poly

1982

• Korg KPR-77: Analog drum machine.^[15]
• Korg Poly-61: The successor of the Polysix with digitally controlled analog oscillators; Korg's first "knobless" synthesizer. Shortly before it was discontinued, a MIDI version known as the Poly-61M was released.

1983

• Korg Poly-800: The first fully programmable synthesizer that sold for less than $1000, notable for using digitally controlled analog oscillators and sharing a single filter for all eight voices. The second-generation Mk II model added a digital delay section. Was also released in a module version, the EX-800.
• The Korg SAS-20 was Korg's first arranger keyboard. A built-in computer analyzed the melody played on the keyboard, and generated a complex accompaniment. This was the world's first auto-accompaniment function of this kind added to a keyboard. Also, a more traditional chord recognition system was included.

1984

• Korg RK-100: MIDI remote keyboard/keytar

1985

• Korg MR-16: PCM-based digital drum machine, with dedicated outputs for each drum voice. It has been used by Aphex Twin^[16]
• Korg DW-6000: Six-voice polyphonic, user selected two digital waveforms out of 8 total. Used an analog filter.
• Korg DW-8000: Eight-voice polyphonic, user selected two digital waveforms out of 16 total. Used an analog filter. Was also released in a rack-mount version, the EX-8000.
• Korg DDM-110 SuperDrums and Korg DDM-220 SuperPercussion: Low-cost digital drum machines^[17]

1986

• Korg DSS-1: Korg's first sampling keyboard with two oscillators per voice (eight voices) and superb filters. Offered additive synthesis, waveform drawing and effects, with superb analog filters.
• Korg DDD-1: Sampling drum machine.^[18]
• Korg DVP-1: Vocoder, Pitch Shifter, Harmonizer, and Digital Synth Sound Module. Three-space rack unit.

1987

• Korg DSS-1 Sound Library: sound cards for Korg DSS-1
• Korg DSM-1 is the rack module of DSS-1. Offered additive synthesis, waveform drawing and effects.
  Total: 16 voices, single oscillator, doubled RAM from DSS-1, also superb analog filters.
• Korg 707: Expandable FM synthesizer. This synthesizer were powered by Yamaha's second-generation 4-operator FM engine^[19]

1988

• DRM-1. 16 bits. Drums station with 8 triggers and 8 individual outputs and L-R. 2 bd, 2 snare, 1 rimshot, chs, plates and congas.
• Korg M1: PCM sample based dual oscillator synth engine, with built-in effects, sequencer and drum machine, the M1 introduced many to the concept of a music workstation, a keyboard that could handle live performance, MIDI, sequencing, expandable sound banks, effects, and more in a single package. The best-selling synthesizer of all time (with 250,000 units sold worldwide, as a single model). Incredibly realistic sounds made possible by using rich samples of acoustic and electric instruments as initial sound source (vs.simple sine, saw and square waves used before) and applying full synthesizer processing chain (filters, modulators, effects, etc.).^[20]

1989

• Korg T series (T1/T2/T3): Some improvements over the M1 with added features.

• Korg i3 Interactive Music Workstation: Korg introduced its first professional arranger in 1993 with the i3 model, a more professional-level arranger that used the same AI2 sound engine as Korg's pro synthesizer line. The i3 also included a multitrack MIDI sequencer in addition to the auto-accompaniment styles and arrangements, large graphical display, improved chord recognition, and the new Backing Sequence feature, which facilitated creation of new songs based on styles.

1994

• Korg i5S: The i5S was a scaled-down version of the i4S, with a plastic chassis and a reduced set of features. Some new sounds and styles were added.
• Korg i5M: An arranger module called i5M was also introduced, with specifications similar to the i5S, but with no keyboard, amplification, or joystick. Newly added traditional styles and sounds (shared with the i5S) particularly appealed to accordionists.
• Korg ih: In 1995, the ih introduced the "ih Interactive Vocal Harmony" feature that allowed for creation of vocal harmonies based on the input from a microphone, starting from chords played live in Style mode, or recorded in a Song's track.

1995

• Korg Prophecy: One of the first physical modeling as well as virtual analog synthesizers. The Prophecy was monophonic and featured a unique cylindrical modulation wheel with integrated ribbon controller.
• Korg Trinity: This very successful workstation was the first to feature a large touch-screen as part of the front panel user interface, a feature that continued on Korg's flagship pro synth and arranger lines, and even on some of their digital multitrack recorders.
• Korg X5D/X5DR: X5DR is the half-rack version. It is similar to an 05R/W, but with 64-note polyphony^[26] (instead of 32) and an additional set of patches.

• Korg N5: The N5 was introduced as a keyboard version of the Korg NS5R sound module^[31] without expansion slot.
• Korg N1/N1R: The N1 is an 88-key (piano-action) synthesizer. It is the expanded version of the N5 with a larger sample ROM^[32] for more AI2 voices and drum kits. In addition to the Korg voices, it provides full support for GM, GS and XG. It also has a very usable arpeggiator. It provides more output ports and effects than the N5 and the built-in voice (patch and combination) editor is easier to master. The N1R is the 1U rack^[33] version.

1999

• Korg Triton: Successor to the Korg Trinity, Korg's first keyboard to offer sampling since the DSS-1 from 1986. As a series Triton (Classic, Studio, Le, Extreme, TR, Karma, X50 and MicroX, all sharing common synth engine and features) sold over 300,000 units.
• Korg Kaoss Pad

Furthermore, the module included 3 different pre-programmed MIDI setups, to make connection with various instruments even easier.
• Korg iS35: iS35 was a new version of the iS40, featuring the same specifications, and adding the Vocal Harmony feature as standard.
• Korg iS50B: iS50B boasted the same specs as the iS50, but in a Dark Blue chassis.
• Korg NX5R – Successor to the NS5R half-rack model. Similar, but with an additional set of XG compatible sounds added through a daughterboard.
• Korg OASYS PCI – a DSP card that offered powerful and flexible audio synthesis, effects and audio.
• Korg SP-100: An 88 key velocity sensitive hammer-action simulation keyboard. Weighing just over 40 pounds, the 32-note polyphonic Korg SP-100 is a truly portable (and affordable) answer for the gigging musician. The 88-note hammer action keyboard is velocity sensitive with three selections for touch control: Light, standard and heavy. The SP-100 comes with the superbly sampled stereo piano sound that Korg is famous for. Additional sounds include electric piano, harpsichord, vibes, organ and strings. Two sounds can be layered together for even more sonic versatility. Chorus and reverb are also provided to add depth to your sound. The SP-100 is a great instrument for practice because of its built-in metronome and single track recorder. The SP-100 is also equipped with a variety of essential connectors like MIDI In and Out, headphone and damper. The manual can be found at Manualslib.com^[34]
