The video actually helps people who might scroll through the presets of this thing without knowing how to use it yet, even if some presets come with instructions more or less, it is easy to miss a good preset on this thing when you don't know yet how to use it. When I saw this synth in a store it was quite underwhelming because it has so many presets. But trying again after watching the video, I can quickly find interesting presets, and use to controls to get a better experience of what this thing can do.
If you have a wavestate or modwave (hardware), you can get the full (corresponding) VST from KORG for $50. Just sayin'. Also, this thing can be programmed as a general VST-type synth, and with 3rd party sample/patch sets, it sounds monstrous. I picked up some Juno/Jupiter type samples for my wavestate native plugin, it it sounds sick. Thanks for the video.
Best Modern Synth i've come across. Easy to navigate. Incredible fidelity. Unique - yet USABLE - so many synths are cool but when it comes to production is unusable. Thank you for sharing!
WE NEED TO BUY SOME EXTRA ...CUSTOM MADE BANKS. I ONLY LIKED ABOUT 13 OF THESE, FOR THE STYLE THAT I MAKE. NO DRUMS, NO METALLIC NOISES. THANKS FOR THE VIDEO.
Copelandia Marcato (around 22:40 ) sounds like a homage to Stuart Copeland's Fairlight (I think) based set up from the mid 80s, which can be heard in The Equalizer (original series) .
Hey... this is the like ordinary car with its presets after loading the different patches , voice packs (especially purchased) it will be a ferrari... believe me... 10/10
The screen is actually quite readable or rather I would say the font is not too small. I also own an Opsix which has the same screen but smaller font and it's harder to read - not too much but I wish the screen was bigger. But Wavestate is fine.
Super nice sounding synth and good price. It would be my next purchase if I wasn't already saving for a jupiter xm. They are kind of similar, but the xm sounds better to me. Nevertheless, cool video. Thanks.
Lmao…that chiptune groove preset is goofy af. Anyway, this thing sounds amazing. Really cinematic, and an awesome tool for film scoring. Also some interesting presets that would be fun for ambient and electronica in general. Nice demonstration of the sounds.
Those are so different from each other. But I did try the Roland Jupiter - was going to do a review video, but I hated it SO MUCH, that just immediately boxed it up and sent it back. haha
@@PinkBuddhaAcademy I am interested in buying one of these keyboards. So when I saw the title of your video I thought hey cool this guy's going to help me out because all I want to do is hear the individual patches. Cool! Needless to say I didn't get past the talking. So I'm spending my valuable time trying to help you out. But I'm sure you don't care so go ahead and post some more laughing emojis. I'm out.
sounds Yeh , but after having Kronos 2, & eventually sold it , i still prefer the Triton sounds which i have on a Micro X . For playability any Korg RH3 piano keybed on stage piano , & i've just been let loose on the Osmose . amazing keyboard . I think these big companies are lagging behind , we need instruments we can actually play , there is just a limit to how many sounds .
I updated my MK1 to version 3.1.7 hoping it would include the MKII patches, but I'm not sure what all was in the update. I think there might be some new patches (or maybe some I never noticed before), but there are some MKII patches that my updated MKI does not have (for example 122 baby right off the first screen).
Well, so if I understand correctly, the only way is to find the already exported files, from someone who owns an MKII. I hope someone shares this file. Thank you@@nivac5227
Now, KORG is proud to present the new wavestate mkII, with improved polyphony (96 stereo voices) and a fresh look.It’s completely compatible with sounds and samples for both the original wavestate, wavestate SE and wavestate native software, including many excellent third-party libraries. Updated sounds and software keep it fresh (and these are available for the original wavestate, too). The compact form-factor, with 37 full-size keys, still transports easily and fits neatly into any stage, studio, or desktop setup.
Getting a free synth is the same thing as being paid for a review. It's monetary value and I really dislike youtubers starting to get the nerve to word it in such a way where they make it sound less bad. It's a sponsored review I dont care what you say dude. Your reviews are great you dont need to be dishonest.
@@PinkBuddhaAcademy my dude I am very sorry. I mistook what you said as you getting the synth for free. Being borrowed long enough to learn it and do the review makes complete synth. Forgive me for my misunderstanding. There are other youtubers who do get free gear and tell us that it isn't a paid promotion and I thought this was another one of those. Best of luck and thanks for the great videos
Being into metal detecting since I was a kid in '76, (now synths too), I watch a lot of those videos. There are one or two individuals who actually get detectors sent to them to keep, but review them. Because they've not had to spend stupid money out their own pocket, they just throw them around like toys. But saying at the start of their videos, that they aren't being paid to review the machine.... Eh, am I missing something??????
Wish I knew if it was garbage or not… people tend to glob on and get over excited. Main concern: how lacking is the bass in comparison with Roland and Moog products.
Don’t expect a rompler to be like a Moog, that’s totally out of context. This can do a lot more than Moog, A LOT, but Moog may sound fatter and analog or course because it is real analog. It can have bass for a production and it will do the job, but mixed with similar sounds probably or a VA. This is very very cinematic, you feel you are playing an already mixed orchestra with synths or space synth pads ready to use for a movie. It sounds pretty good, I liked it and I own good analog gear (Prophet 10, Yamaha SK20, Pro 800, etc.) but don’t expect to be the same, you need to analyze if you need this for your own music. I don’t but it is funny enough to play it and I feel I own a tool for soundtracks if I ever need it, it is also challenging to learn and personally I like that. For techno also this is quite good, only that it is not the music I compose, but it is really fun to jam techno on this thing. This is the most soundtracky synth I have ever owned as a summary and it sounds as such, I liked the sound, digital but very good.

Pretty sure we buy hardware in order to not have to resort to a computer and vst…. Just sayin
The Minilogue is a great synth but I think I like this more. That sitar sounds incredible
I loved that one too!
Great video. Great sounds. I would not put the effort you did to make this video unless the company gave me that synth to keep.
Idk...I find it fun to play through the presets! ✌️😎
Great! And hats off to Korg too - instant inspiration!

Nice video sir. Liked a lot of these sounds, some remind me of my old Triton I still use and love. Very helpful video, thanks.
Glad you liked it
I was all set on pre-ordering a UB-Xa but after seeing this vid I may just get one of these instead. Great vid, thanks.
Lol...cool cool
Absolutely love this thank you so very much for sharing this is my next synth

I think Korg should come out with a 8 Voice full size key bed Microkorg
✌️😎
Well then it wouldn’t be a MICRO Korg
Wish the screen was actually that size! I would pay extra for a bigger screen, any one else?
🤣🤣🤣
The screen is actually quite readable or rather I would say the font is not too small. I also own an Opsix which has the same screen but smaller font and it's harder to read - not too much but I wish the screen was bigger. But Wavestate is fine.
Can you assign patches or presets to buttons for live instrument fast changes, instead of having to search for them?
Super nice sounding synth and good price. It would be my next purchase if I wasn't already saving for a jupiter xm. They are kind of similar, but the xm sounds better to me. Nevertheless, cool video. Thanks.
✌️😎
Hey this does seem to have sounds from the OG. Did they include those and just add on for the Mk2?
THANKs a lot for your work. Very helpfull ❤
Did they upgrade the sound quality a bit? I sense more clarity, but could be in the sound design.or. Better converters?
🤷♂️
@@PinkBuddhaAcademyI get this consistent feeling from watching many old and new demos. More detail and clarity here, which is very welcome!
Awesome. Thank you
You are welcome!

What would you prefer , roland jupiter xm or the wavestate mk 2?
Those are so different from each other. But I did try the Roland Jupiter - was going to do a review video, but I hated it SO MUCH, that just immediately boxed it up and sent it back. haha
@@PinkBuddhaAcademyinteresting. What did you hate about it?
I like how the title says no talking and then you proceed to talk.

You've missed exactly what you were looking for . This is one of the best videos I have seen for the mrk 2 presets..❤
@@PinkBuddhaAcademyWho else changes the definition of NO to be anything other than NO? Is that how you treat women who say NO? “iT’s OnLy tEn SeCoNds”
beautiful sounds

how do you compare to MiniFreak?????

I've been disappointed with the feel of the keys on many of these synths , how can you create good music if the instrument doesnt feel good ?
Agreed. Although I felt this one was "fine"
that's good then, maybe they upgraded the keys on the mk 2
@@PinkBuddhaAcademy
Can I connect a tablet or a display to the wavestate?
Tnx
✌️😎
Thank you❤❤😊
You're welcome 😊
Would you recommend this over the monologue og?
Mmm...touch choice. They are really different
Can I download and use these sounds on the MK1? Are they already included in the native version?
That I don't know
I updated my MK1 to version 3.1.7 hoping it would include the MKII patches, but I'm not sure what all was in the update. I think there might be some new patches (or maybe some I never noticed before), but there are some MKII patches that my updated MKI does not have (for example 122 baby right off the first screen).
Who would pick what between this keyboard and hydrasynth.
Prob hydra.
Hello, can I load the new sound bank of the Wavetstate MKII on my Wavetstate MKI ? If the answer is yes, what can I do? Thanks in advance
Hmmm....I don't know! I just played through the sounds and don't much about this synth.
If someone saved as new files the MK2 new presets, exported them with the Editor Librarian and then imported to Wavestate OG.
Well, so if I understand correctly, the only way is to find the already exported files, from someone who owns an MKII. I hope someone shares this file. Thank you@@nivac5227
Is it worth getting the mk2 over the original?
Nope
Can these sounds be added to the mki version?

I don't think so
For not very expensive price,this is a very dreaming and so powerful machine sure.from Treviso Italy Cattarin Luciano

So just another synth I will spen d hours having fun playing and never actually write a track with? I'm in.

Which products? And I don't how if this is quite an apples for apples comparison. The wavestate is kind of a thing of its own

you cray
You are fucking insane
Its funny I guy talking to say there's no talking lol
and more talking for adds
Dude...the video is an hour long, and I talked for like 15 seconds total.
Мужик ! Выключи инструмент и не тыкай пальцами не туда.

Funny I could have sworn the title said no talking. Stop talking!
