Hi nickle, thanks for the reply. Maybe someone else in the forum can shed some light.
I’ll probably get the Opsix next month unless I’ll find 800$ In the street, in which case I might consider a Hydrasynth.

Hi everyone,

I tried to understand what is the actual polyphony of the Opsix. It states 32, but in some instances 24 and even 2 or 3. I’m thinking of getting an Opsix to complement my Minilogue xd, but less then 8 note polyphony is a no go. Can someone explain what’s the actual polyphony?

Hi OpAmp,

Yeah I saw the PM, even showed them the difference and what not (before sending the unit for the tech). They still said there is nothing wrong with it.

Thanks for helping out.

Well they checked it in and out, including comparing it to a unit they had in the lab and they found nothing wrong. Very disappointing. Guess I’ll try to use it for a while and put it in the drawer or sell it. I’ve been eying the Modal Cobalt 8, but apparently they have serious volume issue..

Hi,

I has the same noise with the headphones out, and also when using batteries (ruling out ground loops). I'll contact the store ands update how they'll try to convince me that the "lofi sound of the microkorg". Thanks for the update.

Hi OpAmp, thank you for spending time around this issue. I also have the WAV recording if you want me to send it to you. I’ll try to record the phaser (or chorus - same result) completely wet later this week. From noodling for a minute last night it had the same artifacts. Next week I’ll go to the st ...

Hi OpAmp, Here is the recording. https://soundcloud.com/lee-firsel/microkorg-noise-test-1?utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=text&utm_campaign=social_sharing First part is initialized patch. I play first the lower part of the middle octave, and when going up the high end shrill/resonance like sound ...

Hi OpAmp, I'll record some samples later this week and share them. However I had some time to initialize a patch. The results so far: - The saw wave has harsh overtones, but that just might be "by design" - in the middle of the middle octave it sounds OK, but any higher than that it sounds like the ...

Hi OpAmp, thanks for the reply.

Yeah I was referring to the XL+. I can't find the vibrato intensity you mentioned, where is located?

Edit - found it.

Hi everyone!

A question (couldn't really find anything definitive on the forum) - can I have the mode wheel control only one function that is not mode depth? e.g. control only the shape of a waveform, or control only the amount of repeats on the delay?

Hi everyone! I started messing with the PCM sounds and I noticed the Rose EP has some hiss (can be heard when the keys are held/sustained). Is it part of the PCM or is my XL+ faulty? I can hear it on other PCM sounds. Edit - also in some sounds with delay effect or long release the trails/end of the ...

Hi everyone, I started to dive deeper into the MKXL+ parameters and the filter kind of confuses me, especially if I try to compare it to my Minilogue xd. When I turn the filter type knob I see 4(5?) types of filters that change, but in the editor I can't choose a filter type but I can for filter 2 ...

Hi OpAmp, that cleared everything up. I think I have my project for the next year or so - changing (almost) all the presets to a library of my own. At first I was a bit disappointed with the sound of the MKXL+ but apparently I just don't like most of the stock presets. It's such a versatile machine ...

Hi OpAmp, thanks for the reply. I managed to do everything I wanted so far, however there's something I don't get. After saving via "Save as" and then pressing "Import Library File" it doesn't show me any of the Library files. Only when I choose "Open" it shows be the 128 preset banks (including the ...

This is one of the great mysteries with Korg.. They barely answer emails, if you can get one. They also don't have a place to report bugs.
