Korg Minilogue XDM 4 Voice Analog Synthesizer Module

The minilogue xd module is a desktop version of one of the most popular synthesizers in its class. It is a superb option for the synth lover who works in home studio DAW environments with a MIDI controller. 

The voice structure of the minilogue xdm consists of 2VCO + MULTI ENGINE, 1VCF, 2EG, 1VCA, and 1LFO. In addition to the distinctive circuits found in the series, like wave shaping for the overtones of the oscillator and a sync/ring switch, there's also cross modulation, a sharp two-pole filter, and a drive switch that adds thickness and drives signal into minilogue xd’s filter. The sounds range from the warm pads to fat basses and crisp lead sounds.

Digital multi-engine
To take its sound shaping capabilities even further, minilogue xd uses a digital multi-engine that provides a third oscillator in addition to the two analog VCOs. The engine is equipped with three different types of sound generators (noise, VPM, and user slot).

Noise generator
The noise generator provides four types of noise that are indispensable for percussive sounds or for sound effects. You can use the digital filter to directly change the color of the noise.

VPM oscillator
The VPM (Variable Phase Modulation)/FM oscillator can produce sharp, metallic sounds with complex overtones beyond the possibilities offered by analog systems. With 16 types of oscillator and a SHAPE knob control, you'll be able to create complex sounds intuitively.

User oscillators
User oscillators allow you to load your own oscillator programs. There are 16 user slots, as well as one type of morphing wavetable oscillator provided as a preset.

High-quality digital effects
minilogue xd’s digital effects use 32-bit floating point DSP processing, adding a finishing touch to its deep sound design platform. The three types (modulation effects, reverb, and delay) can be used simultaneously, letting you choose from a wide range of variations including chorus, ensemble, warm tape delay, and a diverse variety of reverb.

User customization
The minilogue xd features a customizable open environment. The unit comes with 16 user oscillator slots and 16 user effect slots you can customize. Oscillators and user programs that you've created with the SDK (Software Development Kit) can be loaded into the minilogue xd via the dedicated librarian software. Create original programs, share code, and participate in the user community. You can start with sample code provided by Korg.

Polyphonic step sequencer 
The step sequencer provides 16 steps and supports both real-time recording and step recording. Motion sequence lets you record the movements of up to four knobs, adding time-varying change to the sound, and you can record not only smooth changes in value but also values that change precisely at each step.

Micro tuning
The minilogue xd is equipped with the micro tuning function featured on the monologue, allowing you to individually adjust the pitch of each key. There are also 23 preset tunings built-in, including some created by Aphex Twin and Dorian Concept, and users can also create and store six user scales and six user octaves.
