"The keyboard has not had the red glue issue which tends to plague some of these. The key-weight glue is still intact and not sticky. All controls are working with a few of the sliders showing slight signs of jitter. For example, a slider may be sitting at a value of 50 and over time, without touching the slider, it may rise to 51 or lower to 49."

Korg Opsix - The Movie


Red Means Recording

"The Korg Opsix is a 6-op FM synth. It's fun. Here's some music I made with it."

See the dealers on the right for availibility.

Update: video link corrected. Thanks to Epsilon Process in the comments for catching this. 

Korg Opsix Altered FM Synthesizer Demo


Reverb Reverb

"Back at the January NAMM show earlier this year, Korg's booth featured a few pieces of concept and "coming soon" gear hanging up behind some protective glass. One of the particularly interesting prototypes was a sharp-looking FM synthesizer called the Opsix. And today, we're finally getting the chance to get a hands-on look at what the final product is capable of. Watch as Natalie demonstrates what some of the Korg Opsix can do as well as how it works.

Korg Introduces the opsix "Altered FM" Synthesizer


Own FM with Korg’s opsix Altered FM Synthesizer

Update: Kraft Musik video added to the playlist below.

The KORG opsix is here. It appears KORG went with the smaller Wavestate-like body. You might remember the full size keyboard teasers from previous posts. That said, details:

"The legendary sound of FM synthesis had graced hundreds of albums, from its introduction in the 80’s to today. Korg’s opsix puts the power of expanded six-operator FM synthesis in your hands, with instant on-panel controls that help you create custom FM sounds with unparalleled ease.

'Altered FM' takes you light years beyond classic FM with 32 voices of polyphony, five modulation types, a user algorithm mode, multiple filter models 1 “logue”-style 16-step note and motion sequencing, effects for days, a 12-point modulation matrix, and much more."

User videos:

Use the player controls at the bottom left of the player once started to skip around. Some are long.

"Rethink everything you know about FM synthesis.

The opsix represents a new and expansive reimagination of classic digital synthesis. Much like Korg did when bringing wave sequencing back in a more powerful, more musical, and more immediately accessible way with wavestate, so was the approach to FM sound generation of the opsix, resulting in another incredibly flexible and unique synth.

Chainsaw VCOs through Moon Phase Filter


Precarious333 Music

"Just a little test of Acid Rain Chainsaw stereo supersaw VCOs used with Patching Panda Moon Phase. Both are stereo so seems a good fit. All 3 voices of Chainsaw are being sequenced separately by 3 channels of Industrial Music Electronics Stillson Hammer mkII with the 4th sequencing Erica Synths Pico Voice in acid bassline mode through G-Storm Electro 101-VCF and into 2hp Delay. It's a pretty rich sound for so few modules. It helps that Moon Phase allows for enhancement of the stereo field, and I begin to apply detune to Chainsaw's VCOs at the 01:20 mark. Recorded into Ableton as 1 stereo and 1 mono track. Reverb, compression, and EQ added in post."
