I feel I should emphasize that there are great tutorials for how to get started, but the various tools included here have so many options and features that you’ll only feel like you’re scratching the surface if you limit yourself to what that tutorial teaches you. Suffice it to say, players will be provided with multiple simulated synthesizers, each with a wealth of settings and options in its own right, and players can create musical clips in each of these to play in concert, adding and dropping tracks as needed.įor the musical newbie, just seeing all the settings here is pretty intimidating, but KORG Gadget actually features a pretty decent tutorial to get you started, showing you the basics of how to use the device and put together tracks. I could try listing the various features included here, but not being an industry expert I wouldn’t even know where to start. I could criticize the price, but given that the price of other professional music production software is not likely to be much better, and the sort of tools available within the software, I can’t fault it too much for… well, knowing its worth.Īnd make no mistake, KORG Gadget does not skimp on features and options. At $48, KORG Gadget makes it clear from the start that it is not messing around, and only those with a serious interest in making music need apply here. The first caveat is one of the most obvious ones, and a barrier to entry - the price. And in that regard, KORG Gadget is… surprisingly good, though not without its caveats. On the other hand, I may be better-suited to tell you how well-suited KORG Gadget is for a layman, an average person who doesn’t know what all the fancy dials and knobs on music equipment does. As such, I could not possibly hope to provide a professional perspective on the utility of this device, other than to speculate that those who are truly interested in professional music production and editing are probably better off doing it on PC. I am not a sound editor, not a professional musician… heck, I can’t even seem to get the sound settings right on my monthly YouTube podcast. So, full disclosure here… I am not a professional music producer. Rather, this is a professional music design program coming from a well-established name in the music industry, with a wealth of tools for those who truly want to dive deep into music production.

KORG Gadget is a Music Creation Application that unlike many others on the Nintendo Switch is clearly no mere toy or gimmicky time-waster.
