Hands-on with the Korg DS10

My birthday is next week so my fiancee bought me a Nintendo DS. A few weeks earlier, I had imported the Korg DS10 game cart (Japanese version; American version comes out in October according to Amazon). I’ve been playing around with it endlessly for the last week and found it to be a pretty powerful little app.

Neddless to say, it was nice when I saw Kotaku’s story about the DS10 today. It’s about the first “album” produced using the DS10. Check it out here. Among the DS album, you can also find a really nice DJ mix using music performed entirely on the DS10.

The album and the mix are actually very entertaining. They sound like pumped up 8-bit chiptune songs, and with some mixing love I think the tracks coming out of it could be amazing.

I can’t wait to pump some audio out of my DS and into Pro Tools so I can play around with some tracks.
