Korg 37-Key Compact Synthesizer (OPSIXMK2)

The opsix mk II is a digital synth that stands apart from the rest. Based on the sound engine of the original opsix, the number of simultaneous voices and voicings has been expanded to an impressive 64 voices, resulting in superior performance and precise control. For the first time, the opsix Operator Mixer has simplified FM synthesis, making it not just comprehensible but also controllable. With the addition of extra synthesis capabilities and programming, it offers a more efficient workflow and an even richer sound. Furthermore, it is fully compatible with the sounds and samples from both the original opsix and the opsix Native software, including numerous high-quality libraries.

The core of the opsix mk II is nothing short of exponential, as its Altered FM architecture delivers sounds across a vast spectrum. By arranging and modulating waveforms in nearly infinite ways, the opsix mk II can easily emulate numerous types of synthesis, including Additive, Subtractive, Semi-Modular, Analog Modeling, Waveshaping, and Classic FM. This broad assortment of sounds is made possible by new sound components, such as waveforms, filters, shaping, effects, LFOs, envelopes, and modulations.

The opsix mk II also features an incredible step sequencer that rivals groove boxes for flexibility and power. Users can press the PLAY button on any sound and experience the complexity of the sequences, with every Program having its unique sequence stored with it or the option to create their own.

The opsix mk II's 64 voices, twice as many as the original, allow for an even more expansive and expressive sonic palette. The Altered FM architecture delivers sounds that span a vast spectrum, far wider than any single synthesis has been able to cover before. This is achieved through the synth's new sound components, which enable a broad range of sonic possibilities, from additive and subtractive to semi-modular and analog modeling, as well as waveshaping and classic FM.

The opsix mk II's simplified FM synthesis, courtesy of the opsix Operator Mixer, makes this powerful synthesis technique not just comprehensible but also controllable. This, combined with the additional synthesis capabilities and programming, offers users a more efficient workflow and an even richer sound. The synth's full compatibility with the sounds and samples from both the original opsix and the opsix Native software, including numerous high-quality libraries, further expands its sonic potential.

The opsix mk II's step sequencer is a standout feature, rivaling the flexibility and power of groove boxes. Users can press the PLAY button on any sound and be immersed in the complexity of the sequences, with each Program having its own unique sequence stored or the option to create a custom sequence. This level of control and creativity makes the opsix mk II a truly captivating and versatile digital synth.
