Synth Basics Korg MS-20 VCA (Vactrol)
YouTube via djthomaswhite | October 24, 2010
"Bonus VCA from the patch section of the Korg MS-20. This is not the main VCA in the synth voice, rather it is a second VCA intended for use in patching sounds. Honestly, it's a crudely simple Vactrol based VCA that has audio bleed through a bit, like Lopass Gates (LPG's). The bleed through is not that bad, but it is noticeable for sure. However, Vactrol sound is warm and has a nice smooth decay. In other words, you cannot get this VCA to end abruptly. It always has the decay of the Vactrol. Enjoy the video!"
Synth Basics Korg MS-20 LFO

"NOTE: Sorry for the dryer buzzer towards the end of the clip. Wife, laundry, grumble.
Here is a demo of the modulation section of the Korg MS-20. Simple, but very effective. This is the internal LFO from the synth section, but accessed from the patch panel that makes the MS-20 so famous for being flexible and fun to own.
Basic shape control from saw to triangle to ramp on the one output and trigger length pulse to 50/50 cycle square wave to full wave minus small trigger pulses on the other. Frequency control and that's about it."
