Korg - Monologue Monophonic Analogue Synthesiser - Black

It's very easy to use and it sounds amazing and the quality is pretty good. You won't regret buying it.

Excellent in every way. ❤

Hands down my favourite mono synth. Add effects to this thing and life becomes do much wider. Love this!!!. Keys are synth sized, so kinda small buy fine with my little sausage fingers. It is very hands on. Twist a knob and take it from there

Another classic from Korg. Easy enough to pick up and get you started.There are plenty of vids to help you out on the YouTubes, so it shouldn’t be long before you’re making your own tunes

Had a JenSX in 80's and regret not keeping it. No keyboard player just like messing around with this synth, will never master it but endless fun. Volca drum machine next me thinks.

Convincing early 70's Moog sounds at a competitive price.

If you shop around, you can get this for much less than the £299 I'm seeing here, but it's probably worth that. It's a wonderful first monosynth, great for learning something about synthesis and does good bass and lead sounds. The little sequencer is easy to use and the narrow keys are ok (I have a separate 61 key normal size keyboard as well.)It connects to Logic Pro with no problems over USB and via my audio interface - I've even auto-sampled from my own patches!It eats batteries, and is fussy about rechargeables being near full voltage so a power supply is essential. I'm very pleased with this!

The Monologue is a very capable unique analogue monophonic music synthesiser, I know it very well because I already own the same model but in silver, however when I decided to buy it, I thought that the color (black) of the device was division the reason for low price, but it goes actually turn it out that's it wasn't brand new product has been the really. They box has been definitely opened before and thing didn't have that brand new thing smell it has has gone away - the sensation which is for me the very important part of enjoying the unboxing experience, so I returned it - zero hassle money back policy has been processed properly by Amazon. Well Moog brand devices even if brand new doesn't smell at all, but it's completely another thing.The prons: It's included the power supply, which is not in the case if you buy it directly from KORG.The cons: The box has been opened before, even if the device itself was immaculate condition it was not feeling brand new

This has great monster sounds it can create. AFX patches it comes with are also cool, if not only somewhat usable.

This is probably the most fun I've had using a synth. Everything about it is practical and fun and the sequencer is hands down the best I've used. Other amazing features: LFO can be used in audio or sub range, 4 streams of parameter locking/thru, audio in, and most importantly, MICROTUNING! Will buy another unit soon to do some neat chained sequencing.

Very good product from Korg

Źle zabezpieczone do transportu, lub produkt wyjęty wcześniej z opakowania fabrycznego. Lekko wciśnięty klawisz basowy z lewej strony co wizualnie widać, ale działa i nie przeszkadza w korzystaniu.

Il Monologue utilizza una struttura 2 VCO + VCF + VCA + LFO, con forme d’onda variabili, oscillatore sincronizzabile, ringmodulation e drive analogico; il filtro passa basso ricalca quello del Minilogue ma con una curva più aggressiva, più adatta a suoni percussivi e acidi.L'unico prodotto moderno comparabile è probabilmente il minibrute di arturia, che tuttavia suona in modo completamente differente.I vecchi Korg analogici, fino al poly800 avevano gli inviluppi più lenti che rendevano il suono molto più organico e pastoso, ma sicuramente meno percussivo. Anche lo stesso MS20 non picchiava così duro.Il Monologue ha due VCO analogici, ciascuno di essi dispone di una manopola SHAPE che va a modificare direttamente la forma d'onda senza cambiarne la tipologia. I potenziometri INS aggiungono saturazione analogica e clipping post-filtro, senza variare il contenuto armonico prima del cutoff.Il sequencerino a bordo -per me inutile- dispone di motion recording per la creazione di pattern dinamici e ritmici, particolarmente utile per gli amanti del techno, industrial, death blabla.Anche utlizzando effetti esterni, scordatevi i bassi tipici Juno o Moog.E' poi bene sapere che Il Monologue, opportunamente programmato, può avvicinarsi molto ai suoni OMD (Orchestral Manoeuvres in the Dark) del primo e omonimo album nelle timbriche monofoniche tipiche di quella scena synth-pop fine anni ’70 / inizio ’80.Dulcis in principio, ritorna il caro MS20, rivisto, meno sperimentale, demodularizzato, incattivito e modernizzato.100 memorie non sono poche e aiutano molto quando bisogna cambiare le timbriche velocemente, evitando l'acquisto di due o tre macchine nell'uso live.Il prezzo è super.Una pecca legata al packaging è l'assenza dell'alimentatore, che va acquistato a parte.L'alimentazione a pile è del tutto inutile e impraticabile, anzi, percettivamente rende un giocattolo ciò che invece non lo è affatto.La tastierina è l'unica nota dolente, tuttavia non è troppo giocattolosa e alla fine si può utlizzare, prestando attenzione.
