KORG Introduces New Minilogue XD Module

Published on May 8, 2019 Korg

Priced at $589.99

"KORG’s latest polyphonic analog synth, minilogue xd, took the minilogue, the most popular synthesizer of the past decade, to an entirely new level. Now, that same extraordinarily powerful synthesizer platform is available in a compact desktop module. Welcome to the minilogue xd Module."

"The long-awaited desktop module of KORG’s next-generation analog synthesizer

minilogue xd module is the new desktop module version of minilogue xd, the four-voice polyphonic analog synthesizer with a customizable digital multi-engine and built-in stereo digital effects.

The desktop module is equipped with the same controllers as the keyboard version, making it a great choice not only as an additional sound module for your keyboard or DAW but also providing excellent performability, giving you an easy way to include an analog polyphonic synth in your setup. It's also equipped with a poly-chain function that lets you connect it with another minilogue xd or minilogue xd module so that the two units can operate as a polysynth with a total of up to eight voices in your studio or on stage.

Add the sounds of the minilogue xd to your setup or system!

Equipped with an analog synthesizer circuit and a digital multi-engine

Voice structure of minilogue xd is 2VCO + MULTI ENGINE, 1VCF, 2EG, 1VCA, and 1LFO. In addition to the distinctive circuits found in the series, such as wave shaping to shape the overtones of the oscillator and a sync/ring switch, there's also cross modulation, a two-pole filter that can be both sharp and fat, and a drive switch that adds thickness and drives signal into minilogue xd’s filter. Every parameter has been tuned in detail based on what musicians want out of their synth. The sounds range from the warm pads typical of analog to fat basses and crisp lead sounds, covering every situation.

The additional sound design possibilities of digital sound are delivered by the multi-engine: the third oscillator in addition to the two analog VCOs. This engine, which is equipped with three different types of sound generator (noise, VPM, and open-source user oscillators) lets you take advantage of a sonic character that's different than analog, and use it at the same time as the analog engine, infinitely expanding xd module’s potential through hybrid sound design.

High-quality digital effects

minilogue xd’s high-quality digital effects use 32-bit floating point DSP processing, adding a finishing touch to its deep sound design platform. The three types (modulation effects, reverb, and delay) can be used simultaneously, letting you choose from a wide range of variations including chorus, ensemble, warm tape delay, and a diverse variety of reverb. The user effect slots allow you to load your own effect programs that you've created.

User customization brings out infinite potential

KORG Minilogue Demos by Adam Borseti

Published on Jan 17, 2017 Adam Borseti

Description for the first video:

"You know, folks.... I think I might like my Minilogue even more than my ARP Odyssey? I know, I know.... but it's just so inspiring.... every time I sit down at it, I just start creating in a way that I can't do with the Odyssey. The Odyssey is great when you know what you're going to play, and need a bassline, then a melody, and everything is planned.... but the Minilogue just let's it all flow.

Anyway, this is 13 minutes of raw improvising done in one take, editing a patch I made as I'm playing. This is actually how a lot of my best patches were created! I just start playing, and the sound tells me where to go.... it leads me into different territory ever knob twist. This sound for example is going to be in my upcoming (long awaited) patch set #5. It starts as a sound called "Triangular" which I dialed in, and was quickly inspired by. It's very... phasey and almost sounds like it's run through an MXR Phase 90.....

Anywho, I play and continue evolving the sound; making it more percussive, then towards the end, I end up with a totally different patch, which I then saved as "Mourn Horn".

EFFECTS USED:
-TC Electronics Half of Fame reverb
-Echo Plex pedal.

I had an MXR Chorus and MXR Phase 95 ready to go, but never turned them on.

Enjoy!"

Korg Minilogue XD Polyphonic Analog Synthesizer With Digital Multi-Engine & Effects

Published on Jan 15, 2019 Perfect Circuit

"Korg has a new version of the Minilogue, the Minilogue XD. It has all of the great sounding analog features of the original Minilogue with the addition of the Digital Multi-Engine first introduced in the Prologue. The Digital Multi-Engine allows you to use multiple different types of digital oscillators and sound generators and mix them with the two analog oscillators. The Minilogue XD has a 12db/octave filter with drive as well as an updated polyphonic sequencer. Another upgrade from the original Minilogue is the addition of digital effects which include modulation, delay and reverb.

Blinds & JP-BOOO for Korg Prologue - Minilogue XD - NTS-1 - Edouard Digital | SynthFest 2020

Published on May 28, 2020 SynthFest France

https://edouard.digital

Blinds

"Apply PWM to any waveform!

The KORG prologue, their flagship analog synthesizer, has been the first to offer customizable digital oscillators and effects in addition to the analog ones, in Summer 2018. Then in Winter 2019, KORG has introduced the minilogue xd, bringing the same excellent features to the more affordable minilogue. Then in Winter 2020, KORG has introduced the Nu:Tekt NTS-1, an affordable and portable DIY one-voice version of the -logue family’s digital oscillator. Using the Sound Librarian software, you can upload new digital oscillators to those devices and multiply their possibilities.

MULTI Engine Type Display
While many great sounds come from the classic waveforms available in analog oscillators (the sawtooth, the triangle, the square), they are always the same and are mostly static. Digital oscillators have the power to enhance your sounds, adding interesting harmonics and textures, and even be the centerpiece."


JP-BOOO / JP-8000 Supersaw Oscillator

"Amazingly phat and powerful oscillator for the prologue, minilogue xd & NTS-1

In early 1997, Roland introduced a cult synthesizer, that was seen as a modern digital incarnation of the classic analog Jupiter-8 from 1981. Offering a very intuitive interface with 40 knobs and sliders, and a large breadth of sounds, it soon became a classic itself as it was used by The Prodigy, Nicky Romero, Depeche Mode, Gary Numan, BT, Paul Van Dyk, Faithless, Dash Berlin, Pet Shop Boys, The Crystal Method, Orbital, Ken Ishii, Vince Clarke, Goldie, Dave Holmes, Groove Armada, ATB, Überzone, Ferry Corsten, Scooter, Konflict, William Orbit and Garbage.

Though it was a virtual analog—or analog modeling—synthesizer, it was digital at heart, with a lot of grit that made it perfect for all styles of electronic music. But there is a more specific reason why it became so famous and appreciated: the first of its two oscillators offered a revolutionary brand new mode, named Super Saw. Instead of the classic sawtooth, square and triangle waveforms, the oscillator would generate seven detuned sawtooth waves played at the same time on each of the voices. It allowed the creation of both harsh “fat” leads when used raw, and smooth “creamy” pads when filtered, and it quickly became the defining sound of the trance genre, and a staple of electro, techno, drum’n’bass and house....

Not everyone can buy that vintage synthesizer, as they run in the range of $700 to $900. Adding JP‑BOOO 👻 to your KORG prologue, minilogue xd or NTS-1 is incomparably easier and more affordable!

On both the prologue and the minilogue xd, you can use the Shape knob to change the Detune and Shift+Shape to change the Mix. On the NTS-1, you can use the A knob to change the Detune and the B knob to change the Mix.

Thanks to JP‑BOOO 👻, you can now use a realistic oscillator inspired by the Super Saw, along with the analog oscillators and filters of the prologue and minilogue xd, and with your favorite effects and custom modulations on the prologue, minilogue xd and NTS-1.

If you have a prologue 8, you will have 8 voices, as many as there are on that cult synthesizer, and if you have a prologue 16, you will have twice as more!"

Double Korg Minilogue jam - Minilogue, Minilogue XD and Volca Sample with heavy effects

Published on Apr 25, 2019 Expanding Sound

"I recently picked up a Minilogue XD, and I am a big fan. My plan was to sell my old Minilogue and use the money towards the new one. It is a tough call though, the older Minilogue does have some differences that make it unique unto itself. So lately I've been having some fun with both.

I panned each Minilogue a little bit to separate the sound. I also pushed the delays pretty hard. The new ones delay is just so much cleaner, and it sounds great. Something about the old delay sounds really cool too. Its dirty and gritty. It has a life of its own.

I gravitate more towards song based jams, I used presets to change the sequences to make more complex chord progressions, as opposed to staying on a 16 step with modulation. I liked how this one sounded.

Give it a listen, and I hope you enjoy! Do you hear how different the delays sound? which do you like better?"

Minilogue through Microbrute Filter- and a Roland Tape Delay - TR8

Published on Feb 27, 2016 Earmonkey Music

KORG minilogues on eBay | Korg minilogues on Amazon
MicroBrutes on eBay | MicroBrutes on Amazon

"NOTE--THERE are lots of extreme volume fluctuations here. Sorry about that. But just be careful if you're listening on headphones.... SO...I had a request to demo what the Minilogue sounds like through the Microbrute Steiner-Parker filter. My take on it? It sounds bad ass. Like a Bad Ass Boss. I start simple in the video, as usual. Just one square wave from the Minilogue with no modulation at all, running into the audio input of the Microbrute. I tried to sweep the filter with differing amounts of resonance and Brute Factor so you can see how the Microbrute filter affects the Minilogue.

After a bit of noodling, I started a simple sequence from the Minilogue and used the Micro's filter and sequencer. Simple drum pattern playing on the TR8. By using the sequencer, you get the envelope to modulate as well. Ideally, you'd have a Keyboard going in to the Micro to control the envelope with note-on, note-off info, but you get a very interesting delay type effect when you use the sequencer, and change the rate relative to the Minilogue.

I just can't seem to lay off the Roland RE-301 Space Echo, so you get some tape delay in this video as well. I felt like I should be auditioning for a Flock of Seagulls cover band at one point (you'll notice).

But I hope you enjoy this little demo. The Micro's Steiner Parker filter is much more aggressive than the Minilogue's and is a really nice complement to it"

"I wanted to get a slightly more scientific view of how the filters are compare on my three hardware analog synths.

I ran my Korg DSS-1 through its own filter first, then through the filter in the Korg Minilogue and then the Dave Smith Mopho.

Just by looking at the 3 tracks you can see how they compare.

For each filter I did a sweep. Durin the first few seconds you see a screenshot of all the clips. No EQ or volume correction has been added. Clips 1-4 for each track are sweeps at 0% resonance, 50% resonance, 75% resonance, and 100% resonance of the 24dB filter. Clip 5-8 for each track are sweeps at 0% resonance, 50% resonance, 75% resonance, and 100% resonance of the 12dB filter. You can see how some filters make the signal quieter, while others make the signal louder.

0:07 is the raw sound
0:12 Korg DSS-1 24dB filter sweeps
1:04 Korg DSS-1 12dB filter sweeps
2:01 Korg Minilogue 24dB filter sweeps
2:52 Korg Minilogue 12dB filter sweeps
3:49 Dave Smith 24dB filter sweeps
4:39 Dave Smith 12dB filter sweeps

My take is that the filters all have different qualities that make them unique. The DSS-1 isn't as resonant as the others and it gets quieter when the filter is applied, even with max resonance. The Minilogue gets a little bit dirty, doesn't seem to sweep as low in frequency, has less bass to it than others and the 12dB filter signal is a little "hotter" than the 24dB filter. The Mopho adds volume when in 24dB mode and the resonance is up, which is unlike the other two. It's resonance sweeps super low and is slightly more bass heavy. Watch the peak of the spectrum as it sweeps during the 24dB 100 resonance sweep. At 4:27 the peak is about +6dB, but it increases as it gets lower in frequency. At 4:32 it is about +18db, so it resonates more at low frequencies and is not quite linear across the spectrum. The Mopho 12dB filter has less character though.

Basically 12dB Minilogue is my favorite "dirty" sound, the DSS-1 12dB is my favorite "clean" filter for pads and mid-range sounds, 24dB Mopho is my favorite for bass type sounds."

Korg Minilogue - "Stranger Things" & More

1. Korg Minilogue - "Stranger Things"

"I was a little slow obtaining a Minilogue since I live in Canada. I happened to get mine last weekend while binge watching Stranger Things on Netflix. Although this is not what the synth is known for (based on what I've seen), I figured I would take a shot at making something that wouldn't be out of place on a scene in the show. This whole sequence is just one track of the Minilogues audio out. No overdubs. No second synth. No layers, just 1 pure audio track of Minilogue madness. As usual I recorded this to the UAD Studer tape plug in and added some delay and Lexicon 224 reverb for width and depth.

I also own the Korg Arp Odyssey and MS-20 Mini and I must say that at some points this synth can sound very similar to those, even in how difficult it can be to find the sweet spot. When you open this thing up though, it has a sound that's all its own. Personally i'm not a huge fan of poly synths but ANY analog at this price is worth owning. The Minilogue has a very unique character, love it or hate it, you'll be hard pressed to find the sound anywhere else."

Korg Minilogue Within The Realm Of Giants Part 2 Analog Synthesizer Rik Marston Monologue

"KORG MINILOGUE 'WITHIN THE REALM OF GIANTS' Part.1
by Rik Marston 100% NO TALKING! Just PURE Minilogue!
**Watch in HD & Headphones Friendly!**

This is Part 1 of 2.
The world famous KORG MINILOGUE in action!
Here we have 3 Minilogue presets tweaked beyond
all space & time. Here are the names & time frame:

Liquid Pad @00:07
Magic Spells @04:41
Outer Space @08:21

It was a big shock to me to buy an all new analog
polyphonic synth with 4 voices for just under $500!!
It is worth the money! Fun to play & sounds sweet!
OK that said I have ONE problem with this synthesizer,
THE DELAY IS TOO DARN NOISY!!! HISS EVERYWHERE!
Great if you like that distortion / aggressive sound....
but if you are like me, you might want to use an external
effects processor with this synth or no effects at all.
Cuz it is NOISY! Clean signal, this synthesizer SHINES!
SA-WEET design, holds itself up against other larger
analogs with bigger price ranges with no problem!
So buy one if you need a powerful, compact analog.

PLEASE comment below & tell me if your Minilogue
is as noisy as this one, I'd love to hear what you have
to say about it! Is mine busted? Are they all this noisy?
Let me know!

Thank you for watching!
