I spent much of 2020 designing presets for the Korg OpSix, so in 2021, Korg asked me to do a short series of Patch Of The Week tutorials for creating your own original sounds on this synth.
This playlist on my YouTube channel contains all five tutorials, ranging from beginner tips to recreating famous sounds like the DX-100 “Solid Bass”.
Here’s my take on what it’s like to design for Korg’s new Modwave digital synth. Incredibly deep instrument. Worth your attention.

If you’ve read the specs, Korg’s new Prologue polysynth is far more complex than either of its siblings—the Minilogue and Monologue—though it shares their heritage. Consequently, the Prologue’s analog side is similar, but with a few notable upgrades.
The Prologue’s digital side, however, has some groundbreaking innovations. This Music Radar Master Class takes a close look at its synthesis engine and explains how to make the most of it.

In 2017, Korg expanded Gadget’s range by introducing an identical version for Mac OS, bringing its intuitive approach to the desktop. The full install of Gadget for Mac is bundled with more than 30 plug-ins, including the recording gadgets Zurich and Rosario, as well as a virtualized collection of their most iconic hardware synths.
Though many of Gadget’s synths are so immediately approachable that there’s no real need for tutorials, others can look a bit cryptic to new users. Even if you’re an experienced synthesist, there are nuances in each of the instruments that go beyond the obvious functionality. So, for this Music Radar master class, we’ll dig deeper into the more sophisticated gadgets, exposing possibilities that may not be immediately apparent.
