KORG monotron/monotribe : Schematic Archives
This information has been made public so that everyone can view, discuss, experiment with and learn from the circuits of monotron series and monotribe. KORG decided to do this because many users have expressed interest in what’s going on inside of these products. This was normal a few decades ago, when electronic devices had their circuit diagrams printed on their back cover. We think that this kind of sensibility is important if we want our users to feel like they actually own an instrument, not just a magical black box that somehow creates sounds.
Of course, we can't do this for all of our products and we do have to issue disclaimers regarding safety and warranty coverage, but the monotron and monotribe created such a big stir among synth fans and tinkerers alike, that we felt that disclosing the electronic schematic was the right thing to do.
Our decision to make the schematics of monotron and monotribe public is part of our effort to show people how much fun synthesizers are. We feel that by providing the schematics, users can have a better understanding of how these synthesizers work and in turn, get more out of their experience.
