That's really sad. RIP

That's news to me. Hope Korg remain such an impressive company when the new guy is in. Korg have always been quite the innovator imo and kept that ethos for decades without going tits-up. They obvs release big sellers and churn out standard crowd-pleasers to keep the cash flowing, but have also been responsible for iconic gear for as long as I can remember, with many of those icons being the big sellers. Through analogue era to digital, back into analogue and hybrid etc they manage to release quality stuff and often very accessible prices. Currently they're the nearest to Behringer prices for some serious kit. So, chapeau to the former president. He did a fantastic job.

Though I sadly have to say that their plugin synth history is not the best - Korg have sold me some decidedly dodgy plugin synths but hopefully that history will improve. They sound great, but stability has not always been what it should be. If their sw was as reliable as their hw, I'd be a happy camper indeed.

The software is available now in Korg Software Pass as a demo. I couldn't sync the plugin with my hardware version though. Maybe it needs the full version? The librarian software for the hardware was updated, too...

It's officially released now! $150 intro price, $49 if you have the hardware multi/poly. https://korg.shop/software/natives/sing ... ative.html

Thanks for the heads up...demoing now. First impression is this is everything I had hoped it would be.

Change the filter in the "Tom Sawyer Sweep" to "Mini LP", set resonance to 75 and enjoy!

This synth has the best filters I heard so far.

How do you change the oversampling settings though?

How is the CPU usage?

EDIT -> LAYER X -> SETUP & CHORD -> PROGRAM SETUP

How is the CPU usage?

I think quite low actually.

"Demo does not work here, nothing happens when trying to launch it - and the plugins do not show up in Bitwig. Windows 11."

EDIT: Started working after installing the latest Latest Microsoft Visual C++ Redistributable Version X64 version from here:

Find on my AMD Ryzen 7 3700 X (10-20%), but still overall worse or more inconsistent than Repro or TAL J-8.

Working good on my Win 10 box.
No audio spikes either, although I hadn't checked the CPU numbers yet. And right now, anything I run under Bitwig is spiked by Bitwig and not the plugins themselves.

And my first impressions of the plugin has been really good.
