Founded by Tsutomu Katoh (1926-2011), Korg began with an idea: use the latest technologies to create the finest electronic musical instruments, and allow musicians to sound their very best. Since 1963, that has remained Korg's passion. Along the way, Korg has earned a reputation of technological leadership, ease-of-use and stunning sound. Korg set out to create an organ and wound up inventing Japan’s first synthesizer. Innovation is in Korg's DNA. And yet they remain very human. Korg are a company of musicians and music enthusiasts who see themselves as your musical partner.
