KORG minilogue bass - 4-voice polyphonic analog synthesizer optimized for bass (limited edition)

The KORG minilogue bass is a limited edition of the renowned minilogue, designed to deliver powerful analog bass from the moment you power it up. It maintains the 100% analog signal path with two VCOs, a VCF, two EGs, a VCA, and an LFO , and features a 16-step polyphonic sequencer with up to four parameters of motion for creating vibrant, organic bass lines. The top panel features an OLED oscilloscope displaying the waveform in real time, and dedicated 41-knob and dial controls provide immediate access to key parameters whether you're playing live or in the studio. This version adds a bank of 100 new presets created by pro programmers and players, full compatibility with software from the original minilogue, and a unique aesthetic with red/black reverse keys and a red wood grain back.
