Korg Monologue Silver is a sleek, fully programmable monophonic analog synthesizer that brings the power of sound creation to your fingertips. It's a new synth for all types of musicians; rock keyboard players will appreciate its sine, saw, and square wave leads, and EDM producers will find its bass patches attractive for recording and shows.

The monologue offers knob-per-function programmability, allowing you to create everything from crushing basses to crisp leads and complex rhythmic soundscapes quickly and easily. It features a 2-pole VCF that provides added bite, and a new analog Drive circuit that delivers further punch and richness. The LFO has expanded control capabilities with higher rates for deeper modulation possibilities.

One of the standout features of this synth is its powerful 16-step sequencer with a dedicated button per step for added ease of editing. It features motion sequencing with editing and the ability to “lock” parameters with individual steps. The sequencer also offers on-the-fly transposition via key triggering.

Another unique feature is its key layout. The monologue features a 25-key version of the same great-feeling key bed as minilogue, but instead of traditional C to C octaves, monologue is laid out E to E, so those low bass notes are always there! This makes it particularly appealing to guitarists and bassists looking to expand their sound palettes.
