As we previously reported, KORG’s mobile only production/synth suite, Gadget, has now made its way to the Mac. The 7GB installer includes the entire suite of instruments (and more) found in the mobile version along with AU, VST, AAX plug-in versions so you can run them inside your DAW. Now if you were hoping you might be able to get these awesome little instruments on your Mac for around the same $40 it’ll cost you to get them on your iPad, think again.
The new KORG Gadget for Mac will run you $299, but it can be had for just $199 during the launch period promotion. Reports suggest the KORG store wasn’t quite ready for the traffic, but it appears to be up and running again now. The Mac version does not appear on the Mac App Store. While the price may seem steep, there are 30 instruments/gadgets inside of here, so by comparison to other third party options (which can be as much as $250 a pop or more), this really isn’t that bad.
In celebration of the release of Gadget for Mac, KORG has put a number of its popular iOS apps on sale and we are seeing a number of great prices here. Everything listed below is matching the lowest price we have ever tracked on the App Store, including Gadget for iOS.
