Korg Multi/Poly Analog Modeling Synthesizer Module

Multi/Poly in module form is Korg's analog modelling synthesizer with the keyboard left off. Digital processing does the work, and the goal is the behaviour of analogue circuitry rather than a clean emulation of it. Anyone who already owns a controller and wants the sound engine on its own is the buyer here.

• Sixty voices: maximum polyphony reaches 60, which leaves room for stacked pads and held chords under a moving line. Korg notes that the figure shifts with your settings, so busier patches will draw on more of the total.
• Desktop chassis: 483 x 172 x 107 mm (W x D x H), or 19.02 x 6.77 x 4.21 inches.
• Weight: 1.7 kg, about 3.75 lbs. That is light enough to sit on a crowded desk or on a second tier above a controller keyboard, and it adds very little to a case going out to a gig.
• Included items: Korg lists an AC adapter and nothing else, so budget separately for a MIDI controller, a couple of audio leads and whatever else your setup needs.

If you already have a keyboard you like playing, buying the engine on its own saves both the money and the desk space that a second keybed would take. It also means the module can live on a shelf or a stand rather than eating into your playing surface.
