I could have sworn there was a Korg keyboard that has micro-keys that has bread and butter rhodes, wurlitzer, pads, organ, comping, clavinet sounds. All I can find when I do a search is the synth version that is used for analogue modelling. Am I dreaming? I saw a guy using one at a major concert once -nice sounds -very small - for adding an extra keyboard to your rig or something you can carry around easily. This is quite a few years back and maybe I wouldn't be happy with the sound but I can't even find it now -I keep coming up with the synth version. Maybe it wasn't Korg? Maybe it was another life?

I think you may mean the Microstation? Don't think it had mini keys but it was compact and there was basically a Triton engine inside.

Are you sure the sounds you heard were internal? Could have been driving almost anything with it.

The MicroKorg is the synth one although I think one of the "XL" revisions had a few basic ROMpler sounds (or at least wavetable synthesis). I can't think of any with mini keys that had a true ROMpler engine, and I've used/owned like 6 modern Korg synths.

so, maybe he was using the microkorg as a controller only because the shape of the keyboard looks the same. I always thought there was one that size that had the triton engine in it but i guess not.

I got two titles mixed up before, the MicroStation does have mini keys but more octaves making it significantly wider. It has an M50 engine. But there is also the Micro X which has a similar size to the MicroKorg but normal size keys (25 of them) and a Triton core. Maybe that's what you mean?

Thank you Sanderxpander for not giving up. And to the rest of you for trying.
