MINI MONSTER
"The new synth from Korg, dubbed the "Nucleus", is set to be unveiled at the winter Namm show. A raw nerve-centre of realtime analogue-esque and cutting edge digital waveform synthesis, it's a portable workstation powerhouse. A mighty gritty, rip-snorting, ear-drum obliterating, speaker-shreddingly aggressive lo-fi mean machine, fused with OASYS physical-modelling algorithms for the best in hardcore synthesis right across the board. Tame it, if you dare...
Specifications:-
Synth Architecture:-
* 8 x part multitimbral and/or combis;
* 64 note polyphony;
* 3 x Oscs, and 1 x Sub;
* Tri-filter™ - A new filter arrangement consisting of three filters per part configurable in Single, Series, Parallel, Series/Parallel hybrid, Dual-Split and Tri-Split modes;
* MS20/TB/Jupiter8/Moog/Oberheim-emulated self-oscillating filters, with selectable 1-to-6 poles, with additional tube saturation, tape saturation, and/or wave-shaping processing;
* Additional distortion/overdrive/valve-emulation/wave-shaping per part;
* 4 x LFOs with customisable/importable waveforms. Can also be used as 1-shot EGs;
* 4 x EGs, two of which have 8-stages. All EGs have selectable Attack/Decay/Release curves;
* 2 x Step/Karma sequencers per part;
* 3 x Modulation sequencers per part;
* Interpolation/smoothing between knob values, avoiding 'stepping' between discrete MIDI/knob values;
* Up to 16-voice patch unison with panoramic spread;
* 100 Comprehensive multi-timbral effects and algorithms;
---
Synthesis types:-
* Standard subtractive;
* Wavetable & vector waveshaping synthesis;
* Full Frequency Modulation;
* Oscillator-sync, Cross/Ring-mod;
* Formant/Vocoding modelling;
* Retro 8-bit synthesis/emulation including C64 SID synthesis, wave-sequencing, and individual oscillator sequencing and modulation per oscillator;
* Granular synthesis with compreshensive distortion and wave-shaping;
* UniOsc - upto 11-voices stacked using 1-note polyphony;
Physical modelling:-
* OASYS physical modelling algorithms, including STR-1 (Strings) and new releases: BRS-1 (Brass), ORG-1 (Organs), EP-1 (Electric Pianos), and BM-1 (Bass modeler - a brand new algorithm purely devoted for enhanced bass sound production and engineering);
PCM/Waves:-
* 256 onboard single-cycle PCMs and wavetables sampled from natural/instrumental sources, and vintage synths alike. The latter include the MS-20, PolySix, Pro-1, MiniMoog, TB303, Juno106, SH-101, Jupiter 8, Evolver, and many more...
* User-creatable/importable (single-cycle sampled) digital-oscillator waveforms, with onboard visual waveform-synthesis via TouchView™.
---
Hardware:-
* ±15° tiltable colour TouchView™ touchscreen;
* 3-Octave 37-note velocity-sensitive keys with aftertouch;
* 25 Knobs, 35 buttons and Jog Dial for quick parameter/value selections;
* Kaoss XY-Pad style controller, with additional Z (depth/pressure) control;
* Over-sized Modulation wheels;
* Dual x 20-Bit audio inputs for internal oscillator/filter/fx manipulation.;
* OASYS Open platform for adding additional synthesis models at a later date via Operating System updates;
---
Other highlights:-
* VSTi functionality with sound-librarian;
* Firewire transfer of digital output/input audio + midi;
* 4-stereo (8-mono) x 24-bit ¼'-jack-socket balanceable outputs;
* Oscilloscope display for monitoring waveforms in realtime via TouchView™ menu;
* Unobtrusive carry handle inset (flush) with/into rear-panel;
* DVI/VGA output 'add-on option' to display screen on a PC monitor;
* 4 x Karma phrase-arpeggiator/step-sequencer with ability to import/program user-arp's;
* User-importable 'boot-up' screen visual-image greeting with user name-tag.
A special PINK version will also be available for female synthesiser users!
