Analog synthesizer circuit that destroys the common sense of ■class.
Analog synthesis with 4-voice polyphony. minilogue's analog synthesizer circuitry, which has made a huge impact with its authentic analog sound, has been further brushed up in the minilogue xd.
It consists of 2 VCOs + MULTI ENGINE, 1 VCF, 2 EGs, 1 VCA, and 1 LFO, and features the wave shape that forms the overtones of the oscillator, a sync/ring switch, and other common features of the series, plus cross modulation, a sharp 2-pole low-pass filter, and a drive switch that adds fatness to the sound. A drive switch is also included to add fatness to the sound. All parameters have been tuned down to the smallest detail based on the series products. The sound covers all variations, from pads with the warmth of analog to fat basses to clear leads.
Of course, you can save your own programs, including 200 presets, for a total of 500 programs.
Digital multi-engine.
In addition to the two analog VCOs, a third oscillator, the Multi-Engine, offers the charm of digital sound. This engine, which features three different sound source types (Noise, VPM, and User Slot), can be used in conjunction with the analog engine to expand the possibilities of hybrid sound creation by taking advantage of the unique characteristics of sounds different from analog.
Noise Generator
Four types of noise generators are essential for percussive tones and SE sounds. The digital filters allow you to enjoy direct changes in noise color.
VPM Oscillator
VPM (Variable Phase Modulation) / FM oscillator with 2-operator configuration. The 16 oscillator types and SHAPE knob control intuitively guide you through complex sound creation.
User oscillators
16 user oscillator slots with one built-in morphing wavetable oscillator preset.
High-quality digital effects.
High-quality digital effects with 32-bit float processing further polish the sound of minilogue xd. Three simultaneous systems of modulation effects, reverbs, and delays are available, and you can choose from a wide range of variations, including chorus, ensemble, warm tape delays, and a variety of reverbs. The user effects slot can also be used to load your own effects programs.
User customization for unlimited possibilities.
minilogue xd offers an open environment for customization: 16 user oscillator slots and 16 user effect slots are preloaded into the unit for customization. Oscillator and effect programs created with the SDK (Software Development Kit) can be loaded into the unit via dedicated librarian software.
What kind of sounds can be created by the fusion of extended digital oscillators and analog synthesis? Create your own original programs, share your code, and engage with the user community. Try out the sample code provided by Korg first.
Polyphonic step sequencer with 16 buttons.
The 16-step step sequencer supports both real-time and step REC, with 16 directly selectable step buttons for quick editing and improvisational performance, such as replacing or muting step notes. In addition, motion sequencing, which stores up to four knob movements to affect the sound over time, can be used to store not only continuous value changes, but also intermittent values for each step. Since different sounds can be created and arranged for each step, for example, drum patterns and sound effects can be created from a single program, the possibilities for use are endless.
The interface has been well designed.
Joystick
The joystick controls pitch bend, modulation depth, and other parameters. You can also assign any parameter to the up and down directions.
