Product Overview
The wavestate mk II utilizes the legendary wave sequencing synthesis developed by Korg, resulting in an impressive assortment of continuously evolving sounds, textures, and rhythms that offer extensive exploratory possibilities. This iteration of the wavestate synthesizer represents a significant advancement, featuring an expanded number of voices (96 stereo voice polyphony), greater personal sample space (4GB), and a refreshed design.
With the contemporary musician in mind, Wave sequencing 2.0 incorporates elements inspired by modular sequencing, enabling the wrapping or looping of modulators at various stages to generate unique and dynamic sounds. Furthermore, the Randomize feature instantly generates entirely new sounds without the need for manual programming.
