Korg Minilogue XD Module

<article id="desc" class="webtext"> <div class="webtext-block webtext-block--mixed-content"> <div> <h2>Expand Your Synth Setup with the minilogue XD Module</h2> <p>The Korg minilogue XD module is the desktop module version of the company's acclaimed minilogue XD keyboard synth. A 4-voice synth with two analog VCOs plus a customizable digital Multi Engine and built-in stereo digital effects, the minilogue XD module is equipped with the exact same control set as the keyboard-equipped version. The minilogue XD module features a Poly Chain function that lets you connect it with another minilogue XD keyboard or XD module so that the two units can operate as a polysynth with a total of up to eight voices. Korg's building-block approach makes a lot of sense: it's not only a simple way to add a sound module to your studio DAW setup, but it also makes it easy to include a polyphonic analog synth in your onstage rig.</p> </div> </div> <div class="webtext-block webtext-block--video-content">&nbsp;</div> <div class="webtext-block webtext-switched webtext-block--media-right webtext-block--mixed-content"> <div class="webtext__column webtext--text"> <h3>Analog synth circuit plus digital Multi Engine</h3> <p>The voice structure of the minilogue XD module starts with two VCOs plus a Multi Engine; the signal path continues with a VCF, two envelope generators, an LFO, and a VCA. In addition to the unique circuits found in the series, such as waveshaping to shape the oscillator overtones and a Sync/Ring switch, there's also cross modulation, a 2-pole filter that can be both fat and incisive, and a Drive switch that adds girth and drives signal into the minilogue XD's filter. Korg hand-tuned every parameter in detail based on what modern musicians want from a synth. From warm pads to fat basses and crisp lead sounds, the minilogue XD module covers every scenario.</p> </div> </div> <div class="webtext-block webtext-switched webtext-block--media-left webtext-block--mixed-content"> <div class="webtext__column webtext--text"> <h3>Hybrid sound design capabilities</h3> <p>The minilogue XD module offers additional sound design possibilities courtesy of its digital Multi Engine &mdash; effectively the third oscillator that complements 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 leverage a sonic character that's distinctly different from analog and use it at the same time as the analog engine, greatly expanding XD module's potential through hybrid sound design.</p> </div> </div> <div class="webtext-block webtext-switched webtext-block--media-right webtext-block--mixed-content"> <div class="webtext__column webtext--text"> <h3>Studio-grade digital effects</h3> <p>The minilogue XD's studio-grade digital effects engine uses 32-bit floating-point DSP processing, putting the finishing touch on what is a deep and powerful sound design platform. The three effect types (modulation effects, reverb, and delay) can be used simultaneously, letting you select from a broad range of variations that include chorus, ensemble, warm tape delay, and a versatile range of great-sounding reverb types. The user effect slots let you load in your own effects programs that you've created.</p> </div> <div class="webtext__column webtext--media">&nbsp;</div> </div> <div class="webtext-block webtext-switched webtext-block--media-left webtext-block--mixed-content">&nbsp;</div> <div class="webtext-block webtext-switched webtext-block--text"> <div> <ul class="webtext-block--colcount"> <li></li> <li>Korg Gadget Le (music production studio DAW app)</li> <li>Korg Module Le (piano/keyboard sound module app)</li> <li><strong>Software for Mac/Windows:</strong></li> <li>Korg Collection - M1 Le (synthesizer sound module)</li> <li>UVI Digital Synsations (synthesizer sound module)</li> <li>AAS Ultra Analog Session (synthesizer sound module)</li> <li>AAS Strum Session (acoustic guitar sound module)</li> <li>AAS Lounge Lizard Session (electric piano sound module)</li> <li>Propellerhead Reason Lite (DAW music production software)</li> <li>Skoove free 3-month trial of Skoove Premium (online piano lesson)</li> <li>Korg Gadget Le for Mac (DAW music production software)</li> <li>iZotope Ozone Elements (audio mastering plug-in software)</li> </ul> </div> </div> <div class="webtext-block webtext-switched webtext-block--media">&nbsp;</div> <div class="webtext-block webtext-switched webtext-block--text"> <div> <h2>Korg minilogue XD Module Features:</h2> <ul class="webtext-block--colcount"> <li>4-voice hybrid analog/digital synthesizer module</li> <li>2 VCOs plus digital Multi Engine</li> <li>Studio-grade digital effects: modulation effects, reverb, and delay</li> <li>16-step motion sequencer with Keyboard mode</li> <li>Micro tuning;
