Korg Modwave MKII Wavetable Synthesizer

Description

Korg Modwave MKII Wavetable Synthesizer

In 1985, Korg introduced the world to the DW-8000, a groundbreaking synthesizer that merged digital wavetables and rich analog filters to give players access to a new universe of synthesized sounds. Korg’s Modwave MKII continues the DW-8000’s storied legacy while representing a new evolution in wavetable synthesis. Comprising a vast collection of wavetable oscillators, a dozen gorgeous stereo filters, a humongous PCM sample library, and a host of modulators, the Modwave MKII launches you into a deep and immersive world of exploratory sound design. Yet, with its compact 37-key keyboard and remarkably intuitive user interface, the Modwave is anything but overwhelming — it’s a fun and interactive synth that will appeal to seasoned and aspiring synthesists alike. Plus, synthesists at Music Bliss are ecstatic over the inclusion of a built-in KAOSS Pad, which facilitates incredibly expressive performances. Let your imagination soar and tap into new sonic dimensions with the Modwave MKII wavetable synthesizer from Korg!

FEATURES

• Loaded with over 200 characterful wavetables, each with up to 64 waveforms
• Modifier and morph features allow for a staggering 230 million wavetable variations
• 2-oscillator structure with 2-part multitimbrality and 60-voice polyphony nearly doubles the voicing of its predecessor
• Includes modeled MS-20 lowpass/highpass filters, modeled Polysix lowpass filter, and Korg multimode filter
• Plenty of modulation with 4 envelopes, 5 LFOs, and aftertouch
• Extensive parameter controls include individual Motion Sequencing steps, which can yield up to 1,000 possible modulation destinations in a single Program
• 4 programmable Mod knobs give you custom access to whatever parameters you’d like to tweak most often
• Motion Sequencing 2.0 allows you to manipulate sample sequence, timing, and pitch independently to create complex, evolving patches with a nonlinear vibe
• “Lanes” provide unique ways to manipulate pitch, sample duration, gate times, step sequencer values, and much more
• Layer samples over wavetables from the included multi-gigabyte PCM library
• 13 morph types for stretching, squeezing, and altering wavetables in real-time
• Massive collection of built-in distortion, modulation, delay, and reverb effects
• Ample hands-on control over practically all parameters
• Built-in KAOSS Pad with KAOSS Physics encourages unprecedented interactivity
• 37 full-size keys balance playability and portability; key zoning for splitting and layering sounds
• Polyphonic legato, velocity sensitivity, exponential velocity, and release velocity ensure nuanced, expressive performances
