KORG ANNOUNCES NEW MONOLOGUE SYNTH
Fully programmable, analog synthesis for all players, monologue is an advanced monophonic synthesizer with
a new voice and features. It has a sleek layout, knob-per-function workflow and high quality construction
like the minilogue and is a unique new synth for all types of musicians featuring new voicing and sound
sculpting abilities. Its completely new filter, modulation, drive and LFO can generate powerful basses and
sharp leads creating good mono sounds.
The structure is 2VCO, 1VCF, 1EG, 1VCA, and 1LFO. The monologue contains monophonic analog synthesizer
circuitry that builds on the circuitry of the minilogue. It has an efficient power that comes from a
redesigned envelope section, modulation routing and a filter with a powerful low-end punch. Also, the
LFO rate can be adjusted into an unprecedentedly ultra-high-speed range to generate substantial
space-shattering sounds.
The 16- step sequencer of the monologue has been significantly enhanced to deliver musical, complex
rhythms that are easy to capture, see and edit. The monologue also has a set of factory tunings and
well as 12 user slots and is compatible with MIDI Tuning Standard 3Byte messages. Its compact and light
weighted body is only 1.7 kg / 3.78 lbs. providing an unprecedented combination of toughness and
portability. In addition the monologue can operate on batteries. With its Audio Sync connectivity,
it allows it to play in time and integrate seamlessly with KORG volcas, electribes, minilogue and SQ-1.
Available in five colours, it gives the users an extensive choice. The instrument is expected to strat
shipping in 2017.
