  • I can't stress enough how incredibly amazing this little monophonic synth is
Color: Black Pattern Name: MONOLOGUEBK
I can't stress enough how incredibly amazing this little monophonic synth is. The fact that it's $300 is mind blowing. It's little but don't let that fool you. It's easy to go up or down octaves (for both VCOs). The envelope only has attack and decay but the rate and intensity knobs will allow you to make these effects present anyway. This synth doesn't lack much but what little it doesn't have, keep in mind that in order to make such a powerful synth at such an affordable price some things were left out. The keys are smaller than full size keys but much larger than the keys from the microKorg. It's very easy to glide around from key-to-key. The 16 step sequencer is great. It's intuitive and easy to use. Richard D. James (Aphex Twin/AFX) actually made some of the presets on this synth and communicated to Korg's chief engineer about including certain features (like microtuning). One of my favorite features: a built in oscilloscope. I don't care if you've been playing synths for years or you are just beginning. You WILL learn more about analog synthesis when you use the Monologue. You can see the waveforms react to the slightest knob tweaks. You can see what is actually happening when you shape a square waveform and change the pulsewidth or bounce a triangle in VCO1 off of sawtooth waveform in VCO2. Job well done, Korg. ... show more

  • Ancient and modern Korgs
Color: Black Pattern Name: MONOLOGUEBK
My 1st synthesizer was a Univox -Mini Korg. That was back in '75, in high school. It was a heavy beast of wood and metal, with a beautiful sound. I also had a Univox echo chamber, that ran on a tiny 8-track tape. In the late '80s, I had a Mini Korg 2. (2 oscilators). That was a great one! I noted that Korg pretty much ignored standard synth set ups, and did things their way. The results were sturdy, well made instruments that had a dense and unique sound. They were well laid out, and easy to program. I haven't owned a synth for 20 years, after an Ensoniq TS-10 made me so frustrated, I gave it up. I happened to see this little jewel on a youtube video, and fell in love with it.It has the same unique way of doing things as the old Mini Korgs. The shortcuts to the envelope generator a great idea. The shape function on the waveforms is actually what sold me.That and the interesting LFO functions. The controls seem like they are limited, (they are, to an extent) but having to work past said limitations gives rise to better creativity. Solid build and fantastic sound. I hate to use the word "cute" in describing a synth, but it totally is! ... show more

  • Highly recommended for synth newbies
Color: Silver Pattern Name: MONOLOGUESV
I own this synth for nearly two years. It was the first synth i purchased to get into the hobby as a person not having any musical training. The Monologue offers a step sequencer you easily understand and instant access to a lot of buttons - which you may not understand as a beginner, but you get go slowly learn what they do by fiddling around with them. The analogue sounds may appear a little 'nasal' when you are used to other synthesizer sounds (which are often digital, not analogue). Might not be your cup of tea, so check out a few online videos. With a little more gear now, this has found its niche as a bass line tool or a 'soundscape' device (e.g. one note with decay on a 16 steps) and as a step sequencer. Also works as drum machine (interesting presets). The only thing i am not too fond of is the settings menu, which makes it fiddly to easily override motion recording, and uses words & button combinations that keep confusing me. ... show more

  • A beautiful monophonic synth
Color: Blue Pattern Name: MONOLOGUEBL
I wish this had been my first synth purchase, sadly I went through many lesser instruments before purchasing this beautiful machine. I’ve owned the infamous OP-1, almost all of the Korg Volcas, the Elektron Model:Samples, and just about every pocket operator. If I could do it over again, I would have bought this one first. Korg’s Monologue is an unbelievable value. I don’t care how many videos you watch that demonstrate the sounds, nothing compares to the feeling you’ll get after tinkering with the parameters and striking the keys for the first time. This is a buy. This is the only musical instrument I own that I know I will never get ride of. ... show more

  • Great analog monobeast. Fantastic drum machine.
Color: Black Pattern Name: MONOLOGUEBK
Strong and capable little synthesizer. If you've done your research on what this thing can do and seen plenty of demonstrations and you STILL want to buy it, just do it already--you won't regret it!! For the money you can't go wrong. This thing is super versatile, and it actually doubles as an analog DRUM MACHINE. Due to the 4-channel motion sequencing and effective modulation options, you can actually make fantastic analog rhythms on this synthesizer. Even just today I was watching some demos of the Moog DFAM (priced at $600), and that product's sound capabilities are extreeeeemly limited compared to this Korg. Literally all sounds I heard from the demos can be recreated on the Monologue. And to add insult to injury, the Monologue can create more rhythmically complex percussion patterns than a MOOG that is specifically designed for that purpose (at twice the price point). And this ability of the Monologue isn't even the main strength of this synthesizer. Basses, leads, and pads of all types can be created on this machine, but of course pads are best done in multiple recorded layers (as this synthesizer is monophonic). ... show more

  • Better for me than the Minitaur
Color: Black Pattern Name: MONOLOGUEBK
I needed a midi bass synth module to trigger from bass pedals for modern contemporary praise and worship music. This is super flexible, more than the Moog, and sound outstanding. For all but the most discerning analog connoisseurs, this truly delivers, and at a great looking, great sounding, great priced package. Oh, and I love being able to use batteries - gets a lot of life and eliminates yet another chord to keep the platform looking neat. Oh, and lastly, having ready, intuitive access to use presets is fantastic. The Moog is cool, but this is more practical in many ways. ... show more
