KORG Phase8, un sintetizador ACÚSTICO peculiar y asequible
video upload by Hispasonic
"Korg Phase8 es un dispositivo musical peculiar y asequible, con un precio por debajo de 100 €, que estará disponible a finales de año. Utiliza barras de metal accionadas por un electroimán, permitiendo generar sonidos únicos mediante la manipulación de pocos parámetros: nivel/velocidad (que puede llegar a saturar y romper el sonido) y envolvente, que controla la duración y el ataque del sonido, desde percusivo y corto hasta más suave y prolongado.
Destaca por su construcción robusta y metálica, lo que resulta sorprendente para su bajo costo. Ofrece opciones creativas como la posibilidad de añadir apagadores, golpear las barras manualmente para producir sonidos o usar la acción electrónica. Incluye un modo de grabación por pasos (step mode) que permite registrar pequeñas secuencias de hasta 8 pasos, aunque también es posible grabar a tiempo real. Cuenta con un efecto con tres variantes, incluyendo delay (desde breve tipo slap o más extenso y con feedbacknpara crear eco) o modulación, capaz de trémolo y variaciones de tono, que se pueden ajustar para añadir animación o prolongar la duración del sonido.
En cuanto a conectividad, dispone de puertos USB, MIDI, sincronismo y una entrada de voltaje que controla alguno de los parámetros comunes. Es un dispositivo rudimentario pero curioso, que da forma a un instrumento simple y económico. Aunque no se espera un rendimiento complejo, su diseño metálico y la posibilidad de experimentar con sonidos lo convierten en una propuesta muy singular, desarrollada en la sede de Korg en Berlín."
Googlish:
"The Korg Phase8 is a unique and affordable musical device, priced under €100, and available later this year. It uses metal bars driven by an electromagnet, allowing unique sounds to be generated by manipulating a few parameters: level/speed (which can saturate and break the sound) and envelope, which controls the duration and attack of the sound, from percussive and short to softer and longer.
It stands out for its robust, metal construction, which is surprising given its low cost. It offers creative options such as adding dampers, manually striking the bars to produce sounds, or using electronic action. It includes a step recording mode that allows you to record small sequences of up to 8 steps, although it is also possible to record in real time. It has an effect with three variations, including delay (from a short slap-like delay to a longer one with feedback to create echo) or modulation, capable of tremolo and pitch variations, which can be adjusted to add animation or extend the duration of the delay. sound.
In terms of connectivity, it has USB, MIDI, sync, and a voltage input that controls some common parameters. It's a rudimentary but interesting device that creates a simple and inexpensive instrument. While complex performance isn't expected, its metallic design and the ability to experiment with sounds make it a very unique offering, developed at Korg's headquarters in Berlin.
