Analog synthesizer

An analog synthesizer (analogue synthesiser) is a synthesizer that uses analog circuits and analog signals to generate sound electronically. Korg Mono/Poly and analog synthesizer are analog synthesizers.

See Korg Mono/Poly and Analog synthesizer

CV/gate

CV/gate (an abbreviation of control voltage/gate) is an analog method of controlling synthesizers, drum machines, and similar equipment with external sequencers.

See Korg Mono/Poly and CV/gate

Envelope (music)

In sound and music, an envelope describes how a sound changes over time.

See Korg Mono/Poly and Envelope (music)

Korg

, founded as Keio Electronic Laboratories, is a Japanese multinational corporation that manufactures electronic musical instruments, audio processors and guitar pedals, recording equipment, and electronic tuners.

See Korg Mono/Poly and Korg

Korg Collection

The Korg Collection (initially launched as the Korg Legacy Collection in 2004) is a suite of virtual instruments and effects that emulate Korg's various hardware synthesizers.

See Korg Mono/Poly and Korg Collection

Korg Polysix

The Korg Polysix (PS-6) is a six-voice polyphonic analog synthesizer released by Korg in 1981. Korg Mono/Poly and Korg Polysix are analog synthesizers, Korg synthesizers, musical instruments invented in the 1980s and polyphonic synthesizers.

See Korg Mono/Poly and Korg Polysix

Low-frequency oscillation

Low-frequency oscillation (LFO) is an electronic frequency that is usually below 20 Hz and creates a rhythmic pulse or sweep.

See Korg Mono/Poly and Low-frequency oscillation

Polyphony and monophony in instruments

Polyphony is a property of musical instruments that means that they can play multiple independent melody lines simultaneously.

See Korg Mono/Poly and Polyphony and monophony in instruments

Subtractive synthesis

Subtractive synthesis is a method of sound synthesis in which overtones of an audio signal are attenuated by a filter to alter the timbre of the sound.

See Korg Mono/Poly and Subtractive synthesis

Voltage-controlled filter

A voltage-controlled filter (VCF) is an electronic filter whose operating characteristics (primarily cutoff frequency) can be set by an input control voltage.

See Korg Mono/Poly and Voltage-controlled filter

Voltage-controlled oscillator

A voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) is an electronic oscillator whose oscillation frequency is controlled by a voltage input.

See Korg Mono/Poly and Voltage-controlled oscillator
