Analog synth out of the 80's to beginners. It is a Polyphonic -4 channels that can be stacked (unison mode) - that can be used in mono ... In the name o ...
Its architecture is a little particulire, in the sense that this possde 4 Osc synth which can rgler volume, waveform and pitch indpendamment. In contrast, 4 Osc. share the same filter and EG and the EG and VCA even its own. There are also two LFOs, an effects section and an arpgiateur.
In dtail, we have:
Section Oscillator
-4 VCO (SSM) indpendamment tunable (VCO 1 except that the agreement gre general).
-4 Waveforms for VCO: triangle, sawtooth down, square whose width can be module (or VCF envelope or LFO is one of two) and whose square RULES the width manually.
-1 Gnrateur white noise which can only Determines the level.
-1 Portamento.
Filter section:
Low-Pass VCF -1 24 dB which can Determines the frq. cutoff and rsonnance. It is easy to self-oscillate.
We found a package named Amount EG intensity, to use the envelope around.
-1 Keyboard tracking (tracking).
-1 Envelope Generator ADSR with the classic.
Amp section:
-1 VCA base with CONTRL classic ADSR envelope.
modulation section:
-2 LFO named MG 1 and MG 2. For MG1, can Determines the frquence and the shape of the LFO with a choice, triangle, ramp up, ramp down and square. Determines MG 2 is its frequencies.
-1 Bend Wheel for which Determines the intensity and the destination: the VCF cutoff, pitch and the famous VCO 1 / slave VCO.
Mod Wheel -1 assigned to a MG and from which we can route it to the same destinations as the Bend Wheel. We can CONTRL the intensity.
Section arpgiateur:
-1 Arpgiateur whose speed is CONTRL either MG 2, or between the ARP Trig IN.
-1 Slecteur amplitude with an octave, two octaves and all the tension of the keyboard.
-1 Direction selector ultra classic: Up, Down and Up and Down.
-1 Selector 3 positions: off, on and latch (hold on arpeggio).
Effects section:
-3 Effects: Osc. Sync., + Sync the same cross-modulation and finally, only the cross mod.
-2 Modulation sources to the effect chosen: either the envelope of the VCF, or an MG.
-2 Mode: single and double for the osc sync: VCO sync either all of a VCO, or paired with a VCO and VCO 2 3 4.
modes of play:
-5 Possibilities: Hold, Chord Memory (mmorisation an agreement for a replay button), Unison (single stacked with Osc.) Unison / Share (stacking Osc. Unless more a note is played simultanment, in which case one or more librent VCO is to play the note or notes) and finally Poly mode (polyphonic mode up to four notes simultaneously with one for each VCO mobilis notes).
UTILIZATION
It is true that the MP4 (abrviation is the Mono / Poly 4 voices) can stepfather Drout on some of its aspects.
It is a machine that wins be used in depth. It would be a shame to trs operating only a single mode with just the filter and envelopes.
It is not necessary to recall the use of a synth for the subtractive synthse base. O The MP4 is strong, it is at the potential of its five game modes but also the fabulous section effect and its potential modulation.
Frankly, two LFO routable, 4X4 waveforms, the cross mod that allows you to do the VCO as LFO 1, the cross-mod + sync together and you have a VCO modulated by the envelope filter modulates the pitch. You want a FM? There's ... Until three porters and a VCO VCO, 1 LFO and an envelope as modulators ... What could be better in this price range?
It is important to remember that the MP4 is also widely provided in connection: CV IN / Out, Trig In / Out, VCO and VCF FM In (TERRIBLE!), Portamento In Arp and Trig ITEM
However: no memory, a keyboard and a little fake TLEs (bottom and rear) that tend twist (beware of transport).
SOUNDS
The sounds that can be drawn from the Mono / Poly are compltement dpendantes matrise of the craft is often the case ... you tell me ...
Well, it is obvious that this is not a monster versatility. However, we get almost everything.
The lack of peru DEFINITIONS must here be an asset. The ability to allow dsaccordage sounds of a certain width. But it sr, it will never be super sharp.
One often reads that the MP4 sounds a bit late from its competitors, it is less fat to use the accepted term. Honntement is not a Mini but applying a bit, we arrive terrible things. For example, has no use wanting anything systmatiquement always stack the VCO 4 volumes with their respective merits: leave a triangle or saw down a pass over the other VCO. Using a VCO as a sub-oscillator (Bend-wheel which CONTRL 1/Slave Osc Osc., Intensity max wheel base and Bend down ...)
OVERALL OPINION
A superb machine, capable of much, not so fragile as they say ...
From all that I had the Korg, I have only kept two: the MS 20 and the Mono / Poly...Et I use most often the MP ...
For all that is electro, techno sounds, FX is a must ... Listen to artists like The Hacker and Arnaud Rebotini and you'll quickly an ide of what the MP is able hands expert ...
