If I want a sick and meaty low-end bass, I'll run the mono output of the Korg to my fuzz pedal and then directly to the board or to a bass amp. The built-in delay/ensemble effects are great, but I think the mK sounds 1000x better when ran through some outboard effects. There's nothing quite as anticlimactic as seeing a band perform live using the mK and you recognize they're using factory preset A43. Of course this can be said about any synth, but especially for the microKORG. The mK seems to have a very unique sonic footprint, and since so many people own this synth, using the presets as-is is definitely going to be frowned upon. That said, the 128 presets that it ships with are pretty decent to get you started, but PLEASE refrain from using them in your recordings/performances without doing a decent amount of tweaking and effecting. For starters, the 4 voice synth engine is solid and has the ability to create some amazing sounds that span the entire audio spectrum from gut churning basses to angelic and ethereal pads.
