"This thing sounds cool - the resonance, chorus, and flange let you get otherworldly sounds out of it.
I tried all the switches, faders, and buttons, and they all seem to work to my ear. When I encountered a scratchy sounding fader, contact cleaner was able to clean up the sound. I am not a tech, so it is sold "as is".
This synth is great! It's four voices: Brass, Piano, Organ, and Strings... Each section can be manipulated by the various sliders. Too many to name. It's got a Modulation section and an Equalizer section as well as a section of Effects like: Octave, Chorus, Etc... It's a simple machine, but it's very capable of producing FAT bass sounds. I mean really FAT.
'Sequential Circuits introduces the Prelude, a polyphonic keyboard instrument with string, brass, piano, and organ sounds, all of which can be mixed together if desired. Each instrument section also has three different tone colors that can be mixed. A modulation section allows for flanging, chorusing, vibrato, and delayed vibrato from an LFO. The brass section includes filter cutoff and resonance and attack time controls. the decay time can be controlled in the piano section, and attack and release times are controllable in the string section. the instrument also features a built-in five-band graphic equalizer. A rear panel input jack allows an external signal to be processed by the equalizer and the chorus effect.
The Prelude is a 4-section orchestral synthesizer consisting of Piano, Organ, Brass and String sections. Like many other similar 4-section synths of this type, all 49 keys will play simultaneously for 49-note polyphony. Two of the sections can be played at the same time. It has an on-board chorus/flanger effect as well as a 7-band equalizer. The string sounds are the best feature of the Prelude, and the on-board effects and EQ are great for thickening and modulating the string sound beyond the scope of traditional orchestral sounds. The Prelude has a very appealing and intuitive Sequential-esque layout and appearance and is definitely one of the finest orchestral-type multitimbral synths among others in its class.'"
The Axoloti is being utilized as a stereo filter/FX processor. The Nanokontrol is controlling several parameters:
Knob 1 - LP resonance
Slider 1 - LP cutoff
Knob 2 - HP resonance
Slider 2 - HP cutoff
Slider 3 - LP/HP crossfade
Slider 4 - Bit crush crossfade"
"Hi everyone, This is my music video submission for the Korg - New Music Always OKGO contest.
If you like my music, follow me on Soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/ronotron
It took few weekends to write this song. I tried to combine both digital soft synths and physical hardware from Korg. Playing and creating notes along with real-time projection feedback and visualization, making music in a very immersive way allowed me to see a different perspective.
Used the following Korg instruments in the order of their appearance:
Korg Volca Sample for bells, drones, and clicks
Korg Gadget (Chiang Mai)
Korg Monotron Delay (x2) for delay and feedback effects
Korg Taktile 49 to sequence MIDI notes and arps
Korg KP3+ for chain effects, noises
Korg Gadget (Dublin) for intro lead patterns
Korg Volca Beats for drum parts and patterns
Korg Volca Keys for primary leads
Korg Volca Bass for bass notes and secondary leads
Korg Gadget Helsinki for saw (ending melody)
Other Korg Gadgets for subtle ambient textures (Bilbao, Marseille, Wolfsburg)
Primary camera (top-down): Samsung Note 5
Secondary camera (close): Panasonic GX1
Projection computing system: HP Sprout

"Live performance synthesizer jam with the JP-08 Brass sound using dual mode, Arturia MicroBrute on the bass, TB-3 (doing it's thing) SH-101 PlugOut provides the short stab lead sound with MB33 and finally the Korg Minpops 3 (sampled into the Akai MPX-8)
"Arturia Beatstep pro is sequencing two voices. One is the Dixie II through the uFold and MMG. uFold folds is modulated with a lfo from the a143-4 with a clocked reset. The second voice is the Doepfer a143-4 through the wasp filter. The Quadra is providing AD envelopes which are tweaked a lot. BSP is also sequencing drums. Kick and hihat are from Peaks, snareisch sound is noise through the LxD. Snare hihat and noise form MFB dual lfo random out are mixed and passed through the Synthrotek Echo.
Stuff used:
Arturia Beatstep Pro and Eurorack modular synthesizer with:
Doepfer: a-118, a-119, a-124, a-143-4, a-148, a-156, a-160-2, a-199
Intellijel: Dixie II, uFold, Quadra, 2xTriat , Linux, mult
Make noise: MMG, Lxd
Mutable instruments: Peaks
MFB: Dual LFO
Synthrotek: Echo
Audio via the Behringer mixer to a Moto Ultralite MK3 hybrid.
External effects: T.C electronics M350 for delay.
