Next-Gen Analog Modeling in a Rackmount Package
Korg’s Mono/Poly analog synthesizer of the 1980s has achieved legendary status among the synth cognoscenti, and for good reason. Its unique paraphonic architecture with four stacked oscillators enabled what was essentially a monosynth to create fat, overtone-rich sounds that could go toe-to-toe with many polysynths of the era. Given vintage Mono/Polys are increasingly rare, you might be pining for a chance to own one of these coveted synths. Well, City Music has something better in store for you. Inspired by the classic Mono/Poly, the Korg Multi/Poly synthesizer leverages the company’s cutting-edge analog modeling technology to deliver the big, multidimensional sounds pioneered by its lauded ancestor — all within a convenient, desktop-friendly rackmount interface for immediate injection into any project.
Inspired by a legend
The original Mono/Poly boasted experimental features such as round-robin oscillator triggering and flexible x-mod and sync routing. Such clever engineering endowed the compact, user-friendly Mono/Poly with sonic capabilities previously only achievable in massive modular synth rigs. Providing an affordable entrée into the world of limitless sound design, today’s Korg Multi/Poly delivers the power of a polyphonic modular system in a modern analog modeling synth featuring a well-built, compact chassis with 37 full-sized, semi-weighted keys, a plethora of hands-on controls, and classic wooden end cheeks.
Explore new sonic vistas
The first Korg synth to use the company’s next-gen analog modeling technology, the Multi/Poly makes it easy to forge stunning mashups fueled by sonic elements epitomized by classic East-coast and West-coast analog synthesis. Roll up your sleeves and dive into a veritable playground of classic analog-style, digital wavetable, and wave-shaper oscillators and a broad selection of advanced modeled filters. Shape your sounds with modeled envelopes, VCAs, and portamento circuits. Add organic timbral variation with virtual voicing cards. Spice things up with Layer Rotate, which triggers new programs each time you press a key. Modern analog modeling makes it possible to model virtually any existing technology to achieve an unlimited range of sounds. City Music invites you to open up your music to new sonic vistas with the Korg Multi/Poly.
