Korg opsix FM Synthesizer Rack Mount Module

Now, Korg has developed a new form of the Opsix: Module. This model supports MIDI 2.0 property exchange and poly aftertouch, making it a powerful complement to Keystage. It's also fully compatible with original opsix, opsix mk II, opsix SE, and opsix native software sounds, as well as many great third-party libraries to keep your sounds and software up to date. The new 19 rack-mountable enclosure features the same controls as the Keyed model, but is more portable and easily fits into any studio or desktop production system. MIDI 2.0 Property Exchange and Polyphonic Aftertouch support With the latest software update, all opsix models, hardware and software now support MIDI 2.0 property exchange. Hundreds of original factory sounds have been updated to include polyphonic aftertouch modulation (channel aftertouch is also supported). All of this makes the opsix module an excellent companion to KORG's Keystage controller. Rack-Mount and Desktop The opsix modules are cleverly designed for desktop and rackmount use. The panel has been redesigned to fit a standard 19-inch width, and the rear jack panel is recessed for easy access to cables even when equipment is mounted directly above. For desktop setups, the mount allows you to choose the angle of the panel. Lay it flat if you're performing standing up, or upright if you're working seated in the studio. Features Six in One Synthesis - The core of opsix is nothing short of exponential. Since waveforms can be arranged and modulated in nearly infinite ways, opsix can easily do the sonic work that is similar to numerous types of synthesis: Subtractive Removing parts of the sound to get the sound you want; the most widely-used synthesis. opsix uses up to six envelopes and multi-modeled filters to achieve many cutting-edge and classic tones Semi-Modular Rerouting signal paths to change the sound. A spin through the Algorithms section will dramatically reshape the base sound by changing how the six mixer parts work together, and no patch cables are needed. Analog (Modeling) Analog-style controls and plenty of stackable waveforms take you from digital to analog-sounding in no time. Enjoy deep basses, crisp leads, thick pad sounds, fuzzy brass tones, and so much more Waveshaping Adding intentional distortion to the waveforms to achieve aggressive overtones that are either harmonic or inharmonic. This will help you achieve gritty, bitey tones dripping with character Additive Stacking waveforms and blending their harmonics is key to an expansive range of harmonious, dissonant, and tension-driven sounds. With six operators available, the complete FM experience is possible, including the ability to go back in time for classic sounds you have heard throughout recording history Classic FM Last but certainly not least, opsix’s highly flexible and powerful architecture starts with true six-Operator FM. As a result, it easily delivers signature sounds you have surely heard on thousands of hits from the ‘80s on through today, and with far more polyphony than other standalone FM synths available today
