Tone generation deluxe

The Korg opsix SE Platinum has six modes that cover more than classic FM synthesis, which is exemplarily represented with 6 operators and 40 different algorithms. Other tone generation modes include ring modulation, filter, filter FM, Wave folder and effect. The instrument benefits from a total of 23 waveforms including noise, which can be integrated into the sound generation forms as desired. Classic waveforms like sawtooth and square are also included. The elaborately created basic sound is processed by a digital multimode filter, which offers no less than 11 different filter models including the Korg classics MS-20 and Polysix. The final touch is given to each of the 500 sounds in the opsix SE with the effects processor. 30 effects from the areas of reverb, delay, modulation, distortion and more can be used to the point. Today no desire to go on sound research yourself? Let yourself be inspired by the randomize function: at the touch of a button, this dices a completely new sound or refers to individual elements such as operators, algorithms or sequences.

Modulation & Sequencer

In addition to the usual modulation sources such as aftertouch, Velocity or the modulation wheel, three LFOs and three envelopes bring life to the sounds, which are complex in themselves. What is not directly assigned or should modulate more than one destination can be animated via the modulation matrix with twelve additional entries. The polyphonic step sequencer allows sequences up to 16 steps long and records up to six controller movements (motion sequence) in the pattern. A versatile adjustable arpeggiator acts as a further playing aid.

Special features

While in the past complex FM synthesizers had to make do with a minimum of controls, the Korg opsix SE Platinum makes full use of them. This is very helpful for building targeted sounds and spontaneous changes can be made literally in the twinkling of an eye. The Display can also work as a spectrum analyzer or oscilloscope. The former displays levels, frequency bands and the harmonic structure in a simplified way, the oscilloscope mode displays the final waveform visually.
