Korg Minilogue XD Module: Compact Polyphonic Analog Powerhouse

The Minilogue XD Module encapsulates everything that made the Minilogue XD a fan favorite, now in a sleek desktop format. Designed to function as a standalone sound design hub or as an additional sound module, this compact unit seamlessly integrates into your setup, whether you're using it with a keyboard, DAW, or other gear.

Why the Minilogue XD Stands Out

Exceptional Analog Circuitry

The Minilogue XD Module features four-voice polyphonic analog synthesis, delivering the classic warmth, grit, and depth analog synths are known for. Its efficient voice structure provides intuitive sound design with tools like:

• Sync/Ring Modulation
• Cross Modulation
• Two-Pole Filter with Drive

From lush, ambient pads to cutting-edge EDM leads, the Minilogue XD combines compact size with expansive sound design potential.

Hybrid Sound Engine

The digital multi-engine adds even more versatility to the analog foundation. It includes:

• Noise Generator: Perfect for adding texture.
• VPM Oscillator: Ideal for complex harmonic tones.
• User Oscillators: Load custom sounds from the internet for endless sonic exploration.

This hybrid approach offers a massive sound palette, blending the warmth of analog with the precision and flexibility of digital synthesis.

Studio-Quality Effects

The Minilogue XD’s 32-bit DSP processor powers a suite of high-quality effects, including modulation, reverb, and delay. Use these effects simultaneously to fine-tune your sound and elevate your tracks. Options like warm tape delay, chorus, and a variety of reverb styles provide the finishing touch to any soundscape.

16-Step Polyphonic Sequencer

The built-in 16-step sequencer is a creative powerhouse, perfect for real-time performance or complex sound design. Features include:

• Step Recording: Precisely automate pitch and rhythm.
• Motion Sequencing: Record movements of up to four knobs, adding dynamic, time-based changes to your sounds.

This intuitive sequencer lets you create intricate patterns and automate complex parameters effortlessly.

Intuitive Layout and Visual Feedback

The Minilogue XD Module’s layout prioritizes ease of use, offering a clear overview of its powerful features. Key design highlights include:

• Joystick Control: Full 360-degree pitch bend and modulation control.
• Oscilloscope Display: Visualize your waveform in real time, providing instant feedback for sound shaping.
