Now let's just hear a polyphonic sound instead of paraphonic, which is what's been demo'd so far.
So which of the 8 modes changes the whole per-voice and overall synth architectures to something that isnt shown on the diagram then?

No idea, that's why it's so strange to me that the sounds so far only had one filter, including the chord parts. You can clearly hear that it's one filter when the resonance is very high, there is only one filter resonating.

Of course, since keytracking was disabled, all 4 filters would sound as one. Especially if they are well-calibrated.

Ultimately, I don't care if it's paraphonic or polyphonic or whatever. The bottom line for me is that it sounds great and is a fantastic price. It's also great that these are apparently actually on their way to dealers... as opposed to making promises that they later cannot meet or have difficulty meeting. I can think of at least one manufacturer who falls into that category. I don't mean to sound crafty but some of you may know who I mean. It seems that Korg has their cookies together on this one! :tu:

Man, yes, that could very well explain it. One thing I'd never even considered is disabling tracking for chords, that's just crazy. And I just checked the video and it is always disabled, geez. Well, just waiting for a proper poly demo and I'll be happy. Sorry, I have no hat to eat in here.

Based on Shy's recommendation, I ordered one from Sweetwater. They called and said they hoped to get a shipment in and send mine out...tomorrow!

though according to audiofanzine it's 599 euro... which kind of dials down the initial 'wowee weewow' factor.

Funny, whenever I see that thread title in the forum post box on the right, I read Kylie Minogue 8) I think it is the K and MINilOGUE together that are playing a trick on my mind :hihi:

That would explain them registering the name after Minilogue stopped recording.

I look forward then to the arrival of the Korg Adele, Korg Ed Sheeran and Korg Sam Smith. :hihi:
