New Korg Wavestate Wave Sequencing Synthesizer Revealed
Published on Jan 6, 2020 Korg
Update: Details are in... Playlist with the first user videos added below.
"Legendary synthesis, radically re-imagined. Organic, inspirational, and mind-blowingly powerful.
KORG’s legendary Wavestation introduced the world to Wave Sequencing, transforming raw samples into sounds that no-one had ever heard before. The flagship OASYS and KRONOS keyboards developed Wave Sequencing even further, expanding on its unique palette of lush, evolving pads and driving rhythms.
Now, KORG is proud to announce the next step in digital synthesis: the wavestate. Featuring the radically re-imagined Wave Sequencing 2.0, the wavestate delivers astonishing, ever-changing sounds with extensive hands-on control.
Far from a nostalgic reissue, the wavestate is designed from the ground up for a new generation of musicians, producers, and composers, taking cues from sources as diverse as modular synths, groove boxes, and algorithmic composition. The compact form-factor, with 37 full-size keys, transports easily and fits neatly into any stage, studio, or desktop setup."

NAMM 2020: Korg Wavestate Sounds
Published on Jan 21, 2020 Perfect Circuit
"Korg's Wavestate revisits the sounds of the 1990s Wavestation, bringing wave sequencing and vector synthesis into the 2020s.
The Wavestate features four "oscillators" per voice—oscillators which scan wave shapes from an enormous bank of PCM sounds. By sequencing the order of waveforms per oscillator, effects ranging from smooth wavetable shifting to all-out percussive soundscapes can unfold, leaving the Wavestate with an uncommonly large sonic range. Not bound to the sounds possible with simple oscillators, the Wavestate's advanced options for waveform sequencing and modulation make it a perfect choice for animated textures, rich soundscapes, and deep, cinematic pads.
Wavestate is expected to ship soon, so expect to hear more brooding, undulating soundscapes and peculiar timbral sequences on the horizon.
Korg Wavestate available here: https://www.perfectcircuit.com/korg-wavestate.html"

Charlottenburg, Live Ambient Impro, Wavestate, MicroFreak v3, Volca Drum, Monologue
video by Waveformer
"In this live improvised jam, I introduce the Wavestate to some old and new friends - MicroFreak, Monologue, Volca Drum, Novation Circuit, 3 Zoom MS-70CDRs and Korg NTS-1. The only prerecorded sequence is the drums on Volca Drum. The rest of the jam is live playing and active use of the arpeggiators on the Wavestate and MicroFreak. The recorded video is annotated with some notes about the performance.
During the jam, I let each synth/layer have a solo part where it is up front and center - the MicroFreak, the Monologue and the two arp parts and the pad part on the Wavestate. I try to think of them as different members of a band.
My music on Bandcamp: http://waveformer42.bandcamp.com/
The Wavestate patch/performance is a slightly modified version of "WF Charlottenburg" and is a part of the "Berlin School and Ambient Construction Kit" available here: https://gumroad.com/waveformer.
It has four layers - 2 arpeggiators, one arpeggiated bass and one pad. I added some inharmonic wavesamples to steps 9-16 of the pad sample wavesequence, moved around a few notes and rests on the timing lanes for the two arps, added some octave shifts to the pitch sequences, and some ratcheting to one of the arps.
During the jam, I play around with the wavesequence lanes for all the four layers - timing lane to change rhythm, sample lane to vary the wavesamples, pitch lane to add some octave changes to some notes, shape to add ratcheting, and gate to add some variation to note length. The wavesequence loop lengths are different from lane to lane, creating interesting polymeter effects. I also modify pan, filter cutoff, envelope decay and reverb mix through the jam.

From Korg:
KORG’s legendary Wavestation introduced the world to Wave Sequencing, transforming raw samples into sounds that no-one had ever heard before. The flagship OASYS and KRONOS keyboards developed Wave Sequencing even further, expanding on its unique palette of lush, evolving pads and driving rhythms.

Auto Rhythmica for the Korg Wavestate: Heavy Levee Demo
"These videos demonstrate our new drum and percussion performances from 'Auto Rhythmica'. Our (soon to be released) brand new bank of drum and percussion sequences for the complete Korg Wavestate lineup!
You might ask yourself, 'What am I looking at?' when watching these video demonstrations. Sorry, we tried to make the mod knob actions easy to see and hear in these videos. The mod knob automation lanes are labeled but you may need to view these videos in full screen mode to make them easier on the eyes. The videos demonstrate just a few of the mod knob modulations, each performance has more under the hood than we could possibly demonstrate in 90 or so seconds. As always, absolutely no talking!!!

Is this brand-new digital synth, facelift of the original Korg Wavestate, modern take on the legendary Korg Wavestation from the 90s worthy of the rich wave sequencing legacy?
