LCD screen
Basic operation
♦ Powerful modeling effects featuring real-time control via the Knob Matrix
The built-in effects utilize Korg’s proprietary “ ” modeling technology to deliver precise and
powerful modeling sounds.
You can use the sixteen real-time controllers of the Knob Matrix to edit effect parameters quickly
and intuitively. The modeling effects include simulations of vacuum tube preamps, classic amps
and cabinets from around the world, and mic simulators for vintage tube mics and modern studio
condenser mics.
♦ Three independent effect systems provide eleven simultaneous effects
You can use up to a total of eleven effects, each with internal 56-bit processing: 8 insert effects, 2
master effects, and 1 final effect.
For each effect, you can select an effect program created using one of 52 different effect algorithms
(combinations of basic effects).
The effect programs include 128 preset programs created by professional musicians and studio
engineers, and 128 user effect programs that you can use to create, edit and store your own custom
effect settings.
In addition, each song has 32 editable song effect programs.
You can also control effects in real time from an external MIDI controller or from an expression
pedal (EXP-2, XVP-10: sold separately).
♦ Sophisticated digital editing tools
Non-destructive editing functions (possible only on digital recorders) allow you to perform
numerous edits without compromising the high audio quality. In addition to auto and manual
punch-in/out, there are Undo and Redo functions that allow you to audition the “before” and
“after” versions of any edit, before making it permanent. You can use Undo to retrace your steps
through the sixteen most recent recording or editing operations! A total of twelve types of track
editing operation are provided, including a convenient Time Expansion/Compression function
that lets you match up phrases of differing tempo after recording, and a Normalize function that
appropriately boosts the volume and increases the dynamic range of low-level recordings.
For each song you can assign one hundred markers (with names) and six locate points to keep
track of (and instantly access) the locations of all your edits.
♦ Intuitive interface designed for ease-of-use
The D3200 is designed for enhanced usability and ease of operation. Controllers such as the center-
click ClickPoint™ and cursor keys can be used to quickly select parameters and tabs in the 320
×
240 pixel high-resolution LCD screen. The Knob Matrix is located below the high-resolution LCD
screen, and allows you to edit parameter values quickly, in real time and on the fly.
♦ Internal hard drive
A high-capacity hard disk drive is built-in, providing approximately three hours of recording time
per GB (16-bit, 44.1 kHz, single track recording).
♦ CD-R/RW drive for creating backup disk and audio CDs
You can use the CD drive to backup/restore song and effect data, import/export audio files, and
create audio CDs. You can also place an audio CD in the drive and use the CD Player function to
play it. You can create an audio CD either by writing songs individually using Track At Once;
or by using the Album CD Project and Disc At Once functions.
♦ USB connection lets you easily share files with your computer
The USB connector makes it easy to exchange data with your computer. You can connect the D3200
to your computer and partition a 2, 4, or 8 GB area of the D3200’s hard drive as a PC drive for shar-
ing data.
What is ?
(Resonant structure and Electronic circuit Modeling System) is Korg’s proprietary technology for digitally
recreating the numerous factors that produce and influence a sound, ranging from the sound-production mecha-
nisms of acoustic instruments and electric/electronic musical instruments, to the resonances of an instrument body
or speaker cabinet, the sound field in which the instrument is played, the propagation route of the sound, the elec-
trical and acoustic response of mics and speakers, and the changes produced by vacuum tubes and transistors.
