Brand
KORG
The Korg monologue is a next-generation monophonic analog synthesizer that packs a massive, punchy sound into a beautiful, compact frame. Finished in an eye-catching, vibrant red aluminum top panel with a real wood back strip, this 25-key synthesizer is built for musicians, electronic music producers, and live performers who want to create deep basslines, ripping lead sounds, and unique sonic textures. Based on the advanced synthesis engine of Korg’s famous minilogue, the monologue is specially tuned to deliver aggressive, single-note power, making it a standout addition to any home studio setup or live stage rig.
The Korg Monologue-RD (Red) is a next-generation monophonic analog synthesizer designed for musicians, producers, and sound designers who want powerful bass, sharp leads, and hands-on sound design in a compact, performance-ready instrument. Building on the success of Korg’s Minilogue series, the Monologue delivers a completely redesigned single-voice architecture with deeper modulation, aggressive filtering, and an expanded step sequencing engine.
With its fully programmable analog engine, motion sequencing capabilities, and real-time visual feedback via OLED oscilloscope display, the Monologue-RD is engineered for expressive synthesis, studio production, and live electronic performance.
