NATURAL GATE Overview & Memory Demonstration

"This video shows our beloved dual LPG done our way... We go over basic the features but focus on a unique memory effect which allows spectral dynamics to be added, automatically, based on the speed you HIT the gate."

NATURAL GATE Demo - Chord Bingle

"A lil song/jam with all sounds processed by 2 Natural Gates."

"OFFICIAL RELEASE WITHIN 24 HOURS!

Natural Gate is a dual channel, adjustable decay, zero bleed LPG (lowpass gate) designed in our own special way.

OVERVIEW

Natural Gate has been designed to generate a signature response evocative of the acoustics of the natural world. Think of how the plucking of a string or the beating of a drum head produces organic sounds we are all intimately familiar with, sounds that resonate with us, they feel right.

To obtain these qualities, we started with a blank slate and developed an instrument with its own unique character. A character unhampered by the conventions of traditional circuits and devices.

Natural Gate's fully adjustable (and voltage-controllable) decay alters the level of damping of the object you hit - from very short highly damped events to vibrations that ring out for several seconds. The module's innovative circuitry ensures the perfect decay shape at any decay setting.

What you hit matters just as importantly; the MATERIAL switch provides a selection of three material characteristics further increasing the flexibility of the instrument.

The HIT input's circuitry was carefully designed to ensure that any signal you send in will correctly drive Natural gate's envelopes. The CTRL input allows you to open the gate in any way you see fit and when combined with HIT, natural dynamics are realised.

Natural Gate was painstakingly designed and tuned by many pairs of seasoned ears. Natural Gate defines a new paradigm of how the LPG can be experienced and used, thus opening a portal for dialing in new discoveries.

New Korg Synth Coming to NAMM

Update: a few updates have been made to this post - mainly just a little more elaboration.

So, there are rumors that KORG will be introducing a new synth at NAMM this year. I almost didn't put a post up as that's kind of the point of NAMM - manufacturers typically introduce new gear at NAMM. It's almost like posting: New Gear to Appear at NAMM!!! It's not really news until there is actually something to report. Otherwise it's just click bait imo. That said, this is what we do know:

It's not the Maxilogue pictured. That's just something I found on the net and haven't yet posted here. It also represents an evolution of the Monologue, and the actual new synth is supposedly being worked on by the people behind the Monologue and the Minilogue. Note Tatsuya Takahashi, the man behind the Monologue and Minilogue left his role at KORG back on February 17, however he did maintain an advisory role. The new synth is supposed to bring something new to the game. Of course all synths bring something new, but KORG is teasing at something akin to "mind blowing". The name will be eight letters long, start with the letter "P", and apparently will have numbers in it as well. Some are guessing it might be a Poly8000. That could imply a more-than-4-voice poly digital analog hybrid. For something "mind blowing" it will need to be more than your standard poly analog. We'll see... If anyone has anymore concrete info, please do share!

This one was spotted and sent in via Soviet Space Child.

P.S. I picked the Maxilogue render for this post as it's actually never been featured on the site before. It appears to be someone's mock up of what a larger Monologue would look like. I do hope KORG's new synth gives us more than four voices. Somehow four voices has become the standard minimum for a poly, which is unfortunate imo.
