Korg Opsix: Beyond FM with Wave Shaping

video upload by Ian Dixon

"In this Korg Opsix tutorial, I dive deep into the Wave Shaper effect—a feature inspired by the classic Korg 01/W. Discover how to move beyond standard FM synthesis to create complex, harmonically rich textures, including PPG-style vocal pads and D-50-inspired bell tones.

I explore how to use parallel routing and internal filters to tame these aggressive waveforms, turning digital noise into playable, lush patches. Whether you're looking for gritty bass or shimmering pads, the wave-folding capabilities of the Opsix open up a whole new world of sound design."

Can the Korg Opsix Recreate the Roland D-50?

video upload by Ian Dixon

"Can the Korg Opsix recreate the sound of the legendary Roland D-50 without using samples? In this video I build a D-50-inspired patch from scratch, using nothing but FM synthesis, wave shaping, layering and effects to see just how close the Opsix can get to Roland's classic LA synthesis sound.

Along the way I break down the patch step by step, recreating the D-50's signature combination of organ, bell tones and bright "spectrum" textures. Rather than copying a preset, this is a practical sound design walkthrough that explains why these layers work and how you can apply the same techniques to your own patches."

Korg Opsix | No talking, just playing my soundpack "DEATH" for some minutes

video upload by xu.sounddesign - dirk rohde

"I´m playing some patches from my soundpack "DEATH". No external effects were used. All effects are internal effects of the Opsix. No other hardware was used. No compressor, no limiter, no equalizer, nothing, but the pure Opsix.

I designed all the sounds myself. All patches are fully compatible with the Opsix Mk1, Mk2, SE hardware and the Opsix native software.

If you´re interested in my soundpacks, please send me an email (xu.sounddesign@gmx.net).
