SKU: MODWAVE(R)

Unleash your creativity with the modwave, a synthesis powerhouse that offers distinctive wavetable timbres, Kaoss Physics, and Motion Sequencing 2.0. Building on the legacy of Korg's DW-8000, the modwave transforms it into a modern monster synth with deep wavetable oscillators, gorgeous filters, and unmatched polyphony.

Key Features:

  • Deep Wavetable Oscillators: Over 200 wavetables with up to 64 waveforms each, plus 30+ Modifiers and 13 Morph Types for endless sound possibilities.
  • Kaoss Physics: An interactive x/y Kaoss pad with modulatable game physics for dynamic motion control.
  • Motion Sequencing 2.0: Evolved from Wave Sequencing 2.0, offering organic, evolving patterns with multiple lanes and real-time recording.
  • Comprehensive Modulation: Four triggerable envelopes, five LFOs, dual mod processors, and more for intricate sound design.
  • High Polyphony: Up to 32-voice polyphony, allowing for complex and layered sounds.
  • Extensive Presets: Hundreds of preset sounds, easily customizable via front-panel category buttons and Modulation Knobs.

Deep Wavetable Oscillators

The modwave features over 200 wavetables, each containing up to 64 waveforms. With 30+ Modifiers and 13 Morph Types, you can create over 230 million variations right out of the box. The unique A/B Blend allows for real-time hybrid creation, and you can even load custom wavetables in Serum or WaveEdit formats. Layer these with samples from the built-in PCM library for endless sonic possibilities.

Kaoss Physics

Kaoss Physics combines an x/y Kaoss pad with modulatable game physics, creating a responsive and interactive controller. Flick or drag your finger on the pad to control a virtual ball that generates modulation signals based on its position. Adjust parameters like Tilt, Friction, and Bump Height to create evolving modulation effects that are both powerful and fun to explore.

Motion Sequencing 2.0

Evolved from the wavestate’s Wave Sequencing 2.0, Motion Sequencing 2.0 separates Timing, Pitch, Shape, and Step Sequence values into individual lanes. Each lane has its own loop points, allowing for complex and evolving phrases. Modulate loop points separately for each note, randomize step order, and skip steps with adjustable probability for organic, ever-changing sounds.

Comprehensive Modulation System

The modwave offers a massively flexible modulation system with four triggerable envelopes, five LFOs, dual mod processors, and two key-track generators. Animate almost any parameter and create intricate sound designs. The multi-lane Motion Sequencing and Kaoss Physics add even more depth, making the modwave a powerful tool for any musician.
