KORG multi/poly – a modeled mono/poly that’s secretly a KAOSS-filled studio

KORG’s new multi/poly is an analog modeling synth, not an analog remake of the Mono/Poly. But it’s the debut of a new platform for the company – and the digital approach could mean a balance of authentic sound with some much-needed new ideas. It’s really a Mono/Poly crossed with some of the best of recent KORG digital synths and modular. And there’s even a dose of KAOSS.

All the KORG synth news: mini ARP modular, a reissued classic, more wavetables…

Let’s get KORGanized, because the Japanese maker dropped a whole lot of synth news at once. Wave-which now? Reissue? Here it is all in one place.

KORG wavestate synth is modern successor to Wavestation

Don’t call it a comeback. KORG R&D is reimagining one of their more unique ideas from the 90s – but the result promises to be very 2020.
