NAMM 2024: In another major announcement made in the lead-up to NAMM 2024, Korg has revealed the update to its Opsix FM synthesizer. Described by Korg as a "digital synth like no other", Opsix mkII doubles the polyphony of its predecessor from 32 to 64 voices.
Opsix mkII operates using the same 'Altered FM' synth architecture as the Opsix, a six-operator FM synth engine that augments classic FM synthesis with a variety of modern sonic possibilities. Korg tells us that mkII's Altered FM engine has been kitted out with new "sound components, waveforms, filters, shaping possibilities, effects, LFOs, envelopes, modulations and more".
