Microkorg Demo and Review Part 1

If you have any questions, just give me a comment. I have watched many microkorg videos on youtube and it seems the majority of people on youtube have no idea of how to use one. This is for them and anyone new to sythn or the microkorg.

Hey man, my MicroKorg arrived yesterday. I'm a little confused, I can't seem to play chords. The MicroKorg is polyphonic so I should be able to play chords shouldn't I? Also, what are voices and timbres in synthesizer terms?

[earlky94]

@Spacemonkeymojo a difference in timbre within a synth is the subtleties of a sound. if you play a saw wave, then combine that saw wave with a new saw wave that has a slightly different timbre, the sound will become larger and louder. if you play each saw wave separately, they will sound very similar, but when they are played at the same time, very little next to zero phasing will occur.

@earlky94 So is a voice one wave? 

[earlky94]

@Spacemonkeymojo a voice is a combination of up to two different waves with up to two different timbres per wave. also consider all the other functions you can use to alter the sound along with that.
