• KORG launches the portable record player "handytraxx" series.

  

  2025/01/31

  KORG has introduced the all-in-one portable record player series, "handytraxx," allowing users to enjoy vinyl records anywhere with ease. This model is based on the "Handy Trax," a portable record player originally released by Vestax in 2006. For the development of KORG's "handytraxx," former Vestax president Toshihide Nakauma, who was involved in the original "Handy Trax," participated as a co-developer.
  The newly introduced "handytraxx" series includes three models: "handytraxx play," "handytraxx tube," and "handytraxx 1bit." "handytraxx play" is designed for performance, especially scratching. It features a crossfader for scratching, three types of filters, delay effects, and an audio looper function. "handytraxx tube" caters to analog sound enthusiasts, featuring a next-generation Nutube vacuum tube and a JICO-made MM cartridge ("J44A 7") as standard. It also supports digital conversion via USB (PCM-compatible) and offers tone control for low and high frequencies. "handytraxx 1bit" is the flagship model for users who want to digitize their vinyl records. Like the "handytraxx tube," it includes a Nutube vacuum tube and supports KORG’s high-resolution audio software (AudioGate 4). By connecting the device to a PC via USB, users can digitize vinyl at 5.6MHz high-res, 1bit (DSD) format. It is engineered for precise and detailed record playback, ensuring the highest audio quality.
  All models support both AC adapter and AA battery power, allowing users to enjoy vinyl records anywhere. Additional details, including the release date, will be announced as they become available.
