The Korg Minilogue is a two VCO per-voice, four-voice, polyphonic analog synthesizer from Korg,[5][6] designed by Korg engineer and synthesizer designer Tatsuya Takahashi.[7] It was announced just prior to NAMM 2016,[8] and is priced new at $499.99 in the United States,[6] ¥55,000 in Japan[7] and £449 in the United Kingdom and Europe.[9] Its official release was preceded by leaks which caused media speculation.[10]

Voice modes

The minilogue features eight distinct voice-modes:

  • POLY – operates as a four-voice polyphonic synthesizer
  • DUO – operates as a unison two-voice polyphonic synthesizer
  • UNISON – operates as an all-unison mono synthesizer
  • MONO – operates as a mono synth with sub-oscillators
  • CHORD – produces chords
  • DELAY – voices 2–4 sound consecutively at a delay following voice 1
  • ARP – an arpeggiator operates with up to four voices
  • SIDE CHAIN – when a note sounds, the volume of the preceding voice is lowered[11]
