Multi/Poly SE?

Post by mike3000 »

I think the Multi/Poly is a revolutionary synth and will become part of history, just like the Mono/Poly did. You can really tap into its glorious VA sound.
That being said, for a synth with such depth and capability IMO it really needs a bigger keyboard with 61, or at the very least 49, keys, particularly for skilled keyboard players. I know, you can say well just get the module and use a full size keyboard MIDI controller with it. And if Korg never releases a larger keyboard version of the Multi/Poly, that’s what I will do. But it’s nice to have an all-in-one five octave keyboard synth where you don’t have to plug in an accessory controller to get the full range of keys. This is especially true if you are playing live on stage. Just my opinion.
Many people like to have a blend of several synths in the mix and I can understand that. I do that myself. But I most enjoy playing when I have one capable synth in front of me and I can focus on just tweaking and playing it alone. Maybe I’m old school. 😏 For the moment I’m going to wait and see if Korg brings out an SE version like with the Wavestate and Opsix. 🤞

I think the Multi/Poly modules might sit nicely on their Keystage, giving you a nice controller with polyphonic aftertouch.
