Korg Prologue SDK Board

First i assume this is for the multi-engine, though it might be for the main onboard effects processsor, we’ll find out.

I’ll for now assume this is for the multi-engine:
There’s an audio input port. That could be there for just development purposes to input samples, or it could represent that capability inside the Prologue like input from that voices analog synth part. That would be nice if that’s in the hardware.

Interested to see if there might be LFO control going out as well.

Yup, tt’s a neat twist.

However, with all due respect to Kirn, this ain’t the first time Korg has released a board that can run user-created synth stuff - he forgot about the OASYS.

I bet that board contains the full digital section of the prologue.

Even as a separate device, this could work like a sound processor. No MIDI i/o though.

I wonder if a board like that could be haxd into a digital synth / fx with USB MIDI?

Following for the SDK

How is the Korg Prologue with the tuning fix just released?

Looks like a nice poly synth for the price. Currently $1,250-$1,500 and it comes with a free Electribe from Korg!

I’ve heard mixed things and listened to plenty of demos, anyone have some further comments on how it sits in a mix?

Korg has done a great job fixing the tuning issues…sounds great to my uneducated ears

This synth is a killer for the price… i got it last month in the sales here and basically got the 16 voice for the price of the 8 voice…I bought it on the back of Korg saying they were going to fix the tuning issues by the end of year and they have came through as promised

wished I knew how to code so I could take advantage of building my own oscillators and FX

Plaits ported to Prologue

It’s free! A little extra plus on the Prologue, And this puts a extra shine on the Minilogue xd, if that turns out as expected.

Yeah thanks. I really like the idea of the prologue, I wish they would’ve put out dev boards for people to buy.

I haven’t seen a Korg dev board since the OASYS PCI but ya never know.

They gave some out to people at Superbooth last year, was a single oscillator and fx chip from the prologue, theres an SDK as well. The only other option is to buy a prologue and that’s not really appealing for just messing around.

Sounds like the sort of thing Moog does at MoogFest - special items you can’t order from a store and can only get from a festival.

Yeah, the moog subharmonicon was the most interesting thing, wish they made it proper production

… because the Minilogue xd appears to have an improved Multi-Engine.

I’m pretty sure the multi-engine in both the XD and Prologue are exactly the same. What make you say that they appear to be different?
