Compact design meets vintage sound
The miniKORG 700Sm offers the iconic sound of the original miniKORG 700 in a compact, portable design that’s 86% the size of its predecessor. Weighing just 5.8kg, it’s easy to carry to gigs, rehearsals, or studio sessions. Despite its smaller size, it retains all the features of the miniKORG 700FS, making it a versatile choice for musicians who want authentic analog tone in a more manageable package.
Whether you’re using it as a standalone synth or pairing it with other instruments like electric pianos or organs, the miniKORG 700Sm shines in any setup. Its slim form factor makes it an excellent secondary keyboard or a primary performance tool for players on the go.
Powerful dual-oscillator design
Unlike the original miniKORG 700, the 700Sm features two oscillators for expanded sonic possibilities. The second oscillator allows for detuned, thickened tones, adding depth to basslines and lead sounds. This makes it an excellent choice for creating rich, analog textures that cut through any mix.
The dual-oscillator setup is particularly effective for crafting everything from classic synth leads to fat, punchy basslines. Combined with the ring modulator and other enhancements inherited from the 700S model, the 700Sm provides the tools you need to explore a vast range of sounds, from vintage to experimental.
Traveler controller for expressive tone shaping
A standout feature of the original miniKORG 700, the Traveler controller, is faithfully recreated in the 700Sm. This unique dual-slider design allows you to shape the cutoff frequencies of the low-pass and high-pass filters, letting you create everything from subtle tonal shifts to dramatic, sweeping effects. The sliders are now unrestricted, enabling more creative possibilities for sound design.
Perfect for creating "wah-wah" style effects or muting specific frequencies for a vintage feel, the Traveler controller adds a layer of expression that’s hard to replicate with other synths. It’s a tool that encourages experimentation and inspires creativity in your performances.
Modern enhancements for today’s musicians
The miniKORG 700Sm is packed with modern features to meet the needs of contemporary players. A built-in spring reverb provides lush, vintage-style ambience, while the joystick offers intuitive control over pitch bends and modulation. The addition of aftertouch further enhances expressiveness, allowing dynamic control over your sound.
Connectivity options include USB, MIDI IN, and CV/GATE IN, making it easy to integrate the 700Sm into your existing setup. The arpeggiator is a welcome addition for creating rhythmic patterns and adding movement to your compositions. For convenience, the synth also includes memory slots for saving your settings, so you can easily recall your favourite patches during live performances or recording sessions.
Complete with software bundle and soft case
The 700Sm comes with a custom soft case, ensuring your synth stays protected and portable. Perfectly tailored to the instrument, the case makes it easy to transport your miniKORG wherever inspiration strikes, whether you’re heading to a gig, a studio, or simply moving between practice spaces.
Additionally, a free software bundle is included, featuring tools like Izotope’s Ozone Elements for mastering your tracks, Skoove for improving your keyboard skills, and the Korg Collection’s miniKORG 700S software for virtual sound design. This bundle ensures you have everything you need to create, learn, and refine your music, both on the hardware and in your DAW.
