Korg monologue Video Overview Part 4: Sequencer, Microtunings, and User Scales

[@SPAZit101]

Pro tip: Step 1 - send midi from monologue to volca bass Step 2 - send audio from monologue to R channel Step 3 - send audio from volca bass to L channel or just both stereo, Step 4 - play around with your new epic sounding 5 voice synth (Even more voices than minilogue!)

[@rokdrofenik7604]

Korg, thanks a lot for the microtuning! Hope to see it more often in stuff like this.

[@polynomiallemniscate]

Kwas means Acid in polish - just like those sounds

[@pyrofiliac]

yeah true hahaha

[@JestersGeneration]

Nice! I'm a regular monologue user and there a few things in here i missed thanks!

[@AlexWhiteAuthor]

This is great! Subscribed! You're a great brand ambassador. (Tell your boss the KZbin commenters said you needed a raise.)

[@iron_buddha]

very cool synth, KORG. great job

[@fakihkademoglu2806]

thanks for this video series. can you explain how custom microtonal scales are programed on monologue ? note by note ? on cent basis ? shortly how ?

[@pyrofiliac]

You select which notes you want to change in the scale and then use a knob to adjust them up by cents or down.

[@p07a]

Thanks Nick!

[@CappnRock]

aaahh yes!!

[@fransiscovargas4368]

My boi APHEX!

[@Paradroidx]

so fun just to pick a factory preset, then just mess with the motion sequencers. create crazy glitches so much fun. I forgot i had a daw and vst.

[@kristiaanreekmans8574]

question : is there some way to get more steps, or more notes into the sequencer .Say , 32 steps ( or notes for that matter ) Also, is there a kind of arpeggiator on this Monologue ??

[@myousickoflife]

Its a stripped down analog synth with a basic sequencer which is more than worth the retail price tag. I hooked it up to my Roland synth via midi and used the arpeggiator from that it worked perfectly, also sounds pretty amazing paired with the Korg KP3. I'm sure you can hook it up to any external sequencer without any problems.

[@New_Zealand_Music]

Yes use an external sequencer 😉

[@moskva-kassiopeya]

Please bring these features to the Minilogue!

[@savanaviolenta]

Thanks god I didn't buy the Minilogue,instead of that I bough the monologue.Much better sound IMO.

[@moskva-kassiopeya]

T.I.N Mateus but still mono ;)

[@savanaviolenta]

That's not a problem for me,cause I will run it trough TC Electronic Mimiq doubler and will turn it immediately into stereo synth ;) .

[@moskva-kassiopeya]

T.I.N Mateus are you sure you know the difference between mono and poly synths? :)

[@savanaviolenta]

Did you read my post?I said that I run a mono synth into a doubler pedal which automatic turns it into a stereo one.Yeah I know the differences.

[@whalebonefields]

Can you adjust the tuning of every note across the keyboard or are you limited to doing that to a 12 note octave range?

[@monomakes]

Thanks for uploading these videos. They worked, I want one ;)

[@futurfry]

will the MINIlogue be getting any os updates allowing for some of the new features like parameter step sequencing and micro tuning?

[@pyrofiliac]

Korg is always updating firmware for many of its products. I wouldn't be surprised if we see software updates for minilogue for years to come.

[@EliahHoliday]

When will the manual be available for download? Also if they can add to next firmware update instead of sequenced notes off going dark have them flashing. That way if I want to bring back the exact sequence I can by merely hitting the flashing buttons.

[@FluxNomad678]

Can you play the board while the sequencer is playing or do the two interfere with each other?

[@maachdichfott]

That's exactly what I need to know and until this day I could not find any answer to this question...just say yes and I'll buy one immediately :)

[@evanfrench]

The answer is yes

[@RandomOscillationOfficial]

can you use the microtuning feature over the midi out?

[@NateSassoonMusic]

^^I too would like to know the answer to this question.

[@rossmillington8700]

No I dont think so man, i think thats actually way more complicated than it would initially seem. Midi is a format that doesnt really include that, i think here is a way but would be very sirprised if this was included in this synth. I dont own one though (yet) so i might be talking out my arse

[@tomdwij]

No dont reckon it would send it as midi data..

[@cr8on-b3rman]

Hey it's the "modular on the roof" guy!

[@TristanBanks]

How do you use the microtonal feature? I want to make middle eastern scales with microtones.

[@CappnRock]

are the microtunings able to be played over midi? for example, if I plugged it into logic pro via midi and selected bosendorfer piano in logic, would i hear the piano in my desired microtuning??

[@setphaser]

I'd like to know whether vocoder is possible with the monilogue, I know it has audio input, but vocoder sneed certain frequencies or something to work really well...?

[@jimabbey9544]

Love mine,have had my blue one for 3 years now! I use it and the Minilogue xd together ,get unique sounds and sequences!

[@blerkblerkington1427]

Very nice.

[@GrootsieTheDog]

Why did you guys omit the trig/hold function on the new Minilogue xd?

[@totheadblogspot]

What about ODD tempos in the sequencer? Can you shorten the seqencer to 5, 7, etc?

[@pyrofiliac]

Yes!

[@marhabrine4516]

Can Microtonal scale data be sent from the Monologue to the Minilogue with Midi while both playing different sequences ?

[@samerika]

i follow this dude on instagram and now i see him on youtube :D

[@hendrikvandevaart1596]

Nice but a sequencer whit only one 16 parts sequencer to short voor my please

[@MAXTUBE03]

The knobs transmit MIDI to Ableton yes?

[@guitarman122763]

when you choose a scale mode such as ( ionian ) Can you play the scale in any key ?

[@totheadblogspot]

you know what it looks like? a perfect date for the minibrute. They both will be a "2 voice poly" beast, as I understand the 3,5 jack sockets are cv and pitch gates...?

[@naomisalama430]

tothead Yes!!! I was thinking the same thing! A perfect couple, these synths :p

[@IoannisSpyrakis]

Hey! How can I save my microtuning scales?

[@haukesteinbach]

My scales won't change. Is there a button to slect them?

[@simonderycke7545]

The sequencer reminds me of the microkorg arpeggiator a lot...

[@Cemental]

Hi, Enjoyed the whole series. Questions: What is a 1 Shot? Also what is the Shift button for? Thanks.

[@jimabbey9544]

read the PDF manual? lmfao seriously

[@robertdavalos5227]

How many patterns/sequences can it store?

[@nuriamarti100]

can you chain sequences for 32 or 64 steps?

[@pyrofiliac]

not yet but that's a great idea for a future update

[@josehaya6362]

Whats the difference between pure major and pure minor?

[@Interstellallout]

Monolouge or bass station

[@cjolaguera5469]

Anyone now if you can subtract notes from the 16 notes so you can play odd meters?

[@MicaelAzevedo]

You can shorten the 16 steps. You can also Change the resolution of the step sequencer. Better than the volcas although only 16 steps those can look like 64 or even more ahaha

[@YourFreeBeats]

This is a commercial not an overview.We already know the wHat. Qe can never find the how.

[@fret737]

tank you is 'goed spitch , whynot, possibility in french , dis verry much easy for me , so long :)

[@New_Zealand_Music]

Ahh, the friendly face of korg!🤙

[@marlonjarek9071]

Who is this artist called “A-fex Twin?” ... 😂

[@bitspacemusic]

The Aphex Twins is a duo. Great band. They won an Oscar for their Billboard #1 hit Vordhosbn.

[@baward]

PS-3300-logue

[@dalecharlesphoto]

0:19

[@ivanfiasco654]

maybe a "maxilogue" will be the next step, obviously with some improvements: 6 voices of polyphony, and a 32 steps sequencer among other updates... oh and a full size four octaves keyboard please

[@Toshfunk]

You got your wish.... and more

[@ivanfiasco654]

now I need a lot of money

[@hungmichael8]

Wandertalkkkkk

[@Digiphex]

Aphex Twin makes me buy it for sure. However, the wood on the back is atrocious and whoever came up with that should be fired.

[@savanaviolenta]

I love the wood.Looks very stylish.

[@CholokMauser]

dude come on! This wood makes that synth even more beautiful!

[@slaprakshas]

Funny... I love the wood! Gives it a bit of organic touch

[@robertwood1689]

Digiphex Electronics nooo the wood is good XD

[@pauls1555]

why do you hate wood so much
