korg wavestate wave sequencing synthesizer

The KORG wavestate also incorporates “Lanes.” Individual Lanes include shapes, gate times and step sequencer values.

Instead of just repeating, this allows each to be manipulated independently and evolve in organic, unexpected ways. The wavestate’s radically re-imagined Wave Sequencing 2.0 splits apart the timing, the sequence of samples and the melody. While this created ear-catching patterns, the sequence repeated the same way, over and over. With Wave Sequencing on the original Wavestation, each step of a wave sequence had a duration, a sample and a pitch. Run 14 simultaneous effects, including compressors, EQs, modulation, delays and more.

64 stereo voices, 240 Performances, 740 Programs and 1,000 Wave Sequences.

37 velocity-/release-velocity-sensitive keys with programmable Mod Knobs and more.

Wave Sequencing 2.0 with independent control of time, sequence and melody.

It takes cues from sources as diverse as modular synths, groove boxes and algorithmic composition, delivering astonishing, ever-changing sounds with extensive hands-on control. Far from a nostalgic reissue, the wavestate was designed from the ground up by KORG R&D in California. The compact synth expands on KORG’s legendary Wavestation, adding Wave Sequencing 2.0, the next step in digital synthesis. The KORG wavestate wave sequencing synthesizer is now available at Guitar Center.
