With the Wavestation, each step of a Wave Sequence had a duration, a sample, and a pitch. The compact form-factor, with 37 full-size keys, transports easily and fits neatly into any stage, studio, or desktop setup. Featuring the radically re-imagined Wave Sequencing 2.0, the wavestate delivers astonishing, ever-changing sounds with extensive hands-on control.įar from a nostalgic reissue, the wavestate is designed from the ground up for a new generation of musicians, producers, and composers, taking cues from sources as diverse as modular synths, groove boxes, and algorithmic composition. Now, KORG is proud to announce the next step in digital synthesis: the wavestate. The flagship OASYS and KRONOS keyboards developed Wave Sequencing even further, expanding on its unique palette of lush, evolving pads and driving rhythms.

KORG’s legendary Wavestation introduced the world to Wave Sequencing, transforming raw samples into sounds that no-one had ever heard before. Organic, inspirational, and mind-blowingly powerful. Legendary synthesis, radically re-imagined. Korg Wavestate SE is still in development and date/price TBA.Do to size and weight, this item is not eligible for Free Shipping. Hopefully, we will see the OPSIX and the modwave in future also in these bigger versions. It opens up a new sonic layer and expands the possibilities massively. A sophisticated engine like this lives from aftertouch. You can only ask them why not with this design from the beginning. This is how it should be at Korg, this is what a new generation Wavestation aka Wavestate should look like. It will have a more solid housing, aluminum panel, and panels. Also, the case got a major design upgrade. It will also feature a new set of internal programs and the existing ones will be optimized for aftertouch.

The biggest difference of the Wavestate SE will be the format. They hunt for the ghosts they have created themselves, that’s very good. Korg has today teased the Wavestate SE, a new version with more keys and improved design. But it seems that the negative points have reached those responsible.

Great synth engine but implemented in rather half-heartedly keyboards. I personally never understood this decision of the Korg developers.
