A Powerful Evolution of the opsix Lineage
The KORG opsix mk II builds on the sound engine that made the original opsix so accessible, pushing it further with polyphony increased to 64 voices and more simultaneous voicings. It retains the "simplified FM" philosophy thanks to the Operator Mixer, and remains compatible with sounds and samples from the original opsix as well as the opsix Native software, including numerous high-quality libraries. The Operator Mixer section, a visual and sonic signature of the series, comes here with a revamped design featuring a green identity.
Who It's For: Production, Live, and Hassle-Free FM Exploration
The opsix mk II is aimed at curious beginners as well as experienced sound designers who want to enjoy an inspiring digital synth without getting lost in traditional FM complexity. Perfect for techno, electro, ambient, synthwave, pop, or film scoring, it excels both in the studio (textures, pads, bells, basses, expressive leads) and live thanks to its direct controls and "hands-on" approach.
