Introducing phase8, an eight-voice acoustic synthesizer that merges the sonic richness of the physical world with precise electronic control. With envelope shaping, sequencing, analogue wavefolding, and pitch-dependent modulation, phase8 harnesses the latest Acoustic Synthesis technology developed at KORG.
phase8 is an organic, responsive instrument that feels alive in your hands and responds to the world around you.
Haptic sound generation through Acoustic Synthesis
Acoustic Synthesis uses physically vibrating bodies to generate sound, enhanced with the electronic control you’d expect from a synthesizer. The result is an instrument that produces sound which feels alive and responds to physical interactions such as touch and acoustic feedback.
Swapable and tunable steel resonators
phase8 comes with 13 chromatically tuned resonators; 8 of your choice can be installed at any one time. Through envelope control, these resonators can produce everything from short percussive sounds to long, drawn-out sustained notes.
Polymetric rhythm sequencer
An intuitive sequencer supports both step programming and unquantized live recording. Each voice offers step skip for polymetric sequencing. All sequences can be saved and recalled across 8 memory slots.
Key Features:
- Haptic sound generation through Acoustic Synthesis
- Swapable and tunable steel resonators
- Polymetric rhythm sequencer
- Modulation modes
- Trigger delay
- Parameter automation
- Real-time interaction
- External connectivity
- Both MIDI / USB-MIDI and CV can be used to externally control the knob parameters.
- External MIDI devices can be used to trigger notes in the Acoustic Synth, and the sequencer can trigger notes in external MIDI instruments over MIDI / USB-MIDI.
