Korg Monologue Synthesizer brings a new level of sound and creative possibilities all in a compact, solid case with plenty of hands on control, on screen wave display and a 25 note full size keyboard. Finished in a stunning Red finish
Powerful Analogue Sounds
Based on its bigger brother - the Korg Minilogue, the Monologue offers powerful monophonic sound production but with a new analogue circuit. The re-design makes the Monologue rather different in sound production creating incredibly rich sounds. Sound enhancements include a newly designed envelope section, modulation routing, and a filter with powerful low-end punch.
Sound is generated using a 2VCO, 1VCF, 1EG, 1VCA, and 1LFO structure. A new drive circuit lets you add deep overtones and distortion for mega bass and lead sounds. Combined with this is a massively variable LFO system which lets you go from tame to insane rates and can even be switched to act like an additional envelope.
Total Customisation
There are 80 incredible preset sounds to choose from all of which can be warped and twisted to your own desires with the great selection of hands on controller knobs. Powerful filters combined with lots of other controls sound simply amazing for absolute control over your sounds. There are 20 spaces to save your own sounds on top of the 80 preset spaces. Built-in programs provide 80 preset sounds and sequences made by creative artists around the world including legendary electronic artist Aphex Twin.
16-Step Sequencer
There is a newly developed built-in step sequencer for you to lay down complex patterns. It supports both real-time recording with overdubbing capability as well as step recording that lets you record simply by pressing keys in the desired order, and you can also use the 16 physical buttons for quick editing or for improvisation.The motion sequence function lets you record up to four knob movements to apply time-varying change to the sound, and allows you to record not only continuously changing values as on previous models, but also values with step-wise variation.
There's also a key trigger function that lets you play back a sequence while you hold down a key, and even transpose it. Another new function is slide, which can be used to produce smooth bass lines by specifying portamento for each step!
Oscilloscope Display
A compact display allows you to visually see your transformations to the sound as you make them. This is awesome for generating specific waveforms or simply learning what things actually do to the sound when they are changed!
Battery Power
Play anywhere you feel like it with batteries. 6x AA batteries will keep you going for a while when creativity strikes! Of course the classy build quality with the wooden panels and metal chassis will ensure your Monologue is reliable and working when you need it most.
