Korg microKORG Patches

Using slow LFO pitch modulation to create unstable-sounding oscillators like you might find in old, analog gear. This is similar to the “slop” setting on newer DSI prophets.

Taking advantage of the digital waves creates a unique and modern timbre with dark-to-bright swooshing from the LFO controlled filter.

A screamer with distortion and delay. Good attention grabber.

Rapid pitches descending into dark noise. Use this as a transition between song sections.

A shaker with some groove. Bring up the resonance for more of a rattle sound.

The LFO makes it wobble, and is tempo-synced. Use MIDI or the tempo knob to adjust wobble speed.

This microkorg dreamt it was a modular synth and woke up singing this tune.

Round and deep bass with a clinkey attack.

Experimenting with the band-pass filter to create a narrow, piercing tone. Longer notes get thinner as the envelope kicks in.

Let’s use the whole bag of tricks on one sound. This arpeggiated, delayed, phasey, osc sync sound has something for everyone.

Using the ring mod to add some metallic clang to this resonant bass patch.

Another experiment with rapidly speeding up LFOs—this time with more high-frequency content.

Use the mod wheel to speed up the LFO just into the audio range, then back it off to expose the base tone.

Short and slightly stabby great for accent chords.

Thick, fuzzy bass tone for when you really want that bass to pop.

Unrealistic combination of waves creates a string-like sound with a metallic ring.

Tuned percussive sound with wooden thump. Almost like a marimba—but electronic.

You won’t be able to ignore this bright sound with its automatic octave motion.

Dark and bright and the same time, use the tempo-synced delays to create machine powered madness.

With the arpeggiator set to random this patch adds some unexpected rhythmic excitement to your arrangement.
