Today is Presidents’ Day, and that means the biggest US retailers are offering killer savings on a wealth of music tech gear. And some of the best savings are to be had right now over at Reverb.
There’s quite literally hundreds of products discounted for today only, but the team here at MusicTech have picked out some of our favourites to help you upgrade your gear arsenal for less.
First up, you can get this Korg ARP ODYSSEY FS Duophonic Synthesizer Kit for $1,331.99, with $468 off its original price of $1,799. This DIY kit enables synth enthusiasts to build their own Korg ARP ODYSSEY FS, with the same authentic analogue circuitry and original specs, including a full-size keyboard and black panel design with orange lettering. And of course, there’s a pictorial guide included, and no technical knowledge or soldering is required. This is a steal for any true synth nut.
In another example of a BIG saving, you can also get your hands on a used Korg MS-20 Original Analog Mono Synth – complete with a case and patch cables – for $1,610, $690 off its original price of $2,300.
One of Korg’s first successful portable analogue monosynths and dubbed the big brother to the MS-10, the MS-20 is a two-oscillator monophonic lead and bass synth with hard wired and patchable connections. It’ll make a little dent in your wallet, but significantly less so than usual, and if you’re a proper synth aficionado, you won’t regret it.
And lastly, we’d be remiss if we didn’t highlight this particularly stellar deal: $176 off the iCON Pro Audio V1-M USB MIDI DAW Control Surface. You spend a lot of time inside your DAW, so why not invest in a control surface to make the production experience that bit more tactile?
With motorised faders and a touchscreen display, the V1-M makes it easy to navigate throughout your DAW, regardless of the size of your session. Get yours now for just $703.20.
The deals we’ve picked out here are by no means exhaustive, so make sure you head over to Reverb to browse its full Presidents’ Day sale now.
