A "minilogue" spirit, a 100% monologue personality
The Korg monologue adopts the refined aesthetics, build quality, and direct ergonomics that made the minilogue successful, while offering a distinctly different approach. Here, Korg focuses on a monophonic analog architecture designed for impact, with redesigned modulation routing, a reworked envelope section, and a filter capable of producing more biting textures. The result: a compact yet expressive synth, designed to sculpt sounds that "take up space" in a mix.
For whom and for what: basses, leads, and lively sequences
The monologue is aimed both at beginners seeking their first real analog synth that is easy to understand, and at experienced users looking for an immediate instrument for live performance. It excels in electro, techno, synthwave, pop, and sound design, notably thanks to its ability to produce percussive basses, acid leads, and inspiring rhythmic patterns via its sequencer. In the studio, it becomes an effective tool to add character, and on stage, its format and workflow make it a highly responsive companion.

Questions frequently asked
Is the Korg Monologue SV polyphonic?
The architecture is monophonic, with a maximum polyphony of one note. The 2 VCOs are thus dedicated to creating powerful basses, leads, and sequences.
Does the Monologue's sequencer allow parameter automation?
An analog 16-step sequencer is integrated to build rhythmic patterns and enrich sequences.
What connectivity is available for MIDI and synchronization?
Connectivity includes MIDI DIN In and Out ports, as well as MIDI over USB. Sync inputs and outputs allow integration with grooveboxes or drum machines. A 6.35 mm jack headphone output is also provided.
Is the keyboard velocity-sensitive?
The 25-key medium-sized keyboard is velocity-sensitive and features a light touch. A transpose function and a pitchbend controller complete the playing controls.
What sounds can the Monologue's filter produce?
The bipolar filter has Cutoff and Resonance controls for shaping biting textures. Saturation added to the 2 VCO architecture enhances harmonics and distortion.
