Product Overview
Derived from its vaunted polyphonic analog predecessor, the Korg miniloguebass takes the heart of the classic synthesizer and expands its range so you can take the full force of its distinctive voicing into the deepest caverns of the sonic spectrum. Dive into 100 newly developed presets, including 40 dedicated to exploring the vast low end that were programmed in collaboration with premiere bassists and synthesists. Like its predecessor, miniloguebass includes eight voice modes, with an onboard oscilloscope to provide real-time visual feedback as you shape and form your dual-oscillator output. Armed with authentic analog circuitry, a 16-step sequencer, and a suite of sonic sculpting tools, AudioProCT's synthesists agree that this 37-key Korg synth succeeds in bringing the rich minilogue magic to the low end.
Eight voice modes to craft your sound
If you’ve heard the original minilogue, then you know how much range its 4-voice polyphony can achieve. The miniloguebass continues this trend with aural architecture that’s optimized to for low-end utilization. Poly mode functions as a standard 4-voice synth; Duo stacks two voices in unison, and Unison stacks every voice, turning the miniloguebass into a monstrous mono synth. With its Mono mode, the minilogue bass kicks the low end into high gear by adding a sub-oscillator. You can craft aural vistas with the Chord or Delay modes, with the latter layering your sound by delaying the second, third, and fourth voices after the first voice is played. For rhythmic consideration, Arp gives you a 4-voice arpeggiator, while Side Chain creates volume swells as you move from voice to voice.
Pristinely programmed synthesizer circuitry
Korg’s distinctive all-analog architecture guarantees the ineffable oomph you won’t find in digital synthesis. Unwavering aural heft and characteristic sonic scope abound across 100 uniquely designed presets, with 40 bass-specific options programmed in collaboration with top-flight talent. With all its sound-design potential, the miniloguebass includes a bank of 100 slots for user-assignable presets. Ride the rhythm with the 16-step polyphonic sequencer, which can assign motion sequence to a max of four parameters. An onboard OLED oscilloscope delivers vivid visualizations for real-time monitoring, coupled with full access to Korg’s Sound Librarian, letting you manage, modify, and move programs to your computer, or even to another minilogue synth!
Vaunted voltage, powerful playback
An intuitive interface comprising 41 ergonomic panel controls guides and inspires across an electric landscape of tri-waveform oscillators, envelope generators, lush LFO options, and a unique, delay-infused highpass cutoff. Korg’s versatile LFO — pioneered for the original minilogue — is the secret weapon to expanding the aural horizons of the miniloguebass. Achieve sonorous oscillator harmonics with compelling wave-shaping tools, while cross and ring modulation can be coupled with oscillator sync across a litany of combinations for unparalleled low-end lightning. Add in a flexible multi-mode filter and the suite of expression tools for truly individual sound that will beg to be unleashed. Versatile MIDI in/out/thru connectivity is accompanied by dedicated Sync and audio I/O, as well as a USB-B port and a headphone jack, ensuring seamless integration into any setup or setting.
