"This is where the ideas become physical things": Get a glimpse inside Korg Berlin's experimental synth-building workshop with Reverb

At this year's Superbooth trade show, one of the most exciting announcements was the next phase of Korg's Acoustic Synthesis prototype, a curious hybrid of acoustic instrument and synthesizer that produces sound by electromagnetically stimulating tuned metal resonators. 

Acoustic Synthesis phase_8 was developed at Korg's Berlin HQ, an outpost headed up by renowned instrument designer Tatsuya "Tats" Takahashi, the brains behind the brand's hugely popular Volca series and several other Korg products.
