It's funny. I want one of these so bad. Every time I have a hard day at my job, I just fire up this video and suddenly my working/monetary goals are renewed. It's like getting the christmas wish catalog in the mail. Thank you.
Hahahah that's exactly the same effect I get with instruments and not wanting to go to work.
lol every time I get the itch to buy a new synth I fire up this vid and remember to be patient... Mid March delivery 😍
I hope you got it!
Did you manage to save up already?
It's been 10 month, did you finally order one? :)
Blade Runner patch in the first slot - good idea. Every synth should come with the Blade runner patch, or even a dedicated Blade Runner patch button 😀
Some people complain that it's done to death, but those are bad people who should be poked with sticks.
More CS80 than CS80
Like a CS80 replicant?
The GM midi sound set should also have in its 128 presets 'the Blade Runner patch"
I agree the blade runner blues patch especially
What a fantastic sounding synth.
Agreed. It blows away the original Minilogue IMO.
Kizunaut yeah, pleasant surprise
Brendan Black Yeah I agree .. I have the original .. but isn’t it mostly because of the stereo effects? I.E. What happens when you run the original through a suite of Strymon boxes or even VST effects?
Chris Strobel I’ve run mine through a specular tempus and was able to get some amazing pads akin to these, but the digital oscillator on this does give sounds you can’t get on the og minilogue.
Some of the sequences they got out of this really make it seem like a lot greater than 4-note polyphony.
This is even better than going to the store and trying them in some unknown brand of speakers instead of your own.
Indeed, I always bring my own headphones when I go for this reason.
This is a real public service you're doing, loopop - thank you! Also, this synth sounds just great, Korg really has done a pretty good job with the logue lineup of synths
I've got a Minilogue & Prologue. I can't wait to add the XD to my collection. It's sounds great.
Every preset is an absolute banger! The Minilogue XD is a definite cop for me. Thanks for the demo, can wait to cook up some heat with this synth.
Getting one tomorrow 👍🏻 happy daze…😀
5:00 this is the most beautiful sound ive ever heard
It's the piano melody from Pink Moon by Nick Drake. It's a beautiful song.
@@reiniervannek It's true!
With that preset (changing a bit) I did this, lovely preset...
th-cam.com/video/NhRT8yUaxMc/w-d-xo.html
@@carlosvallejomusic of course! :)
16:50 what a beautiful sound! reminds me of a juno...
Thats the reason I bought the synth :P
Yes! I hope this product shows Korg that people want analog + digital
It is how we will move to the next level of synthesizers.
Thanks for a real demo! Rather than hearing the same old marketing stuff.
6:02 TWIN PEAKS
Alexander I was about to click off 2 mins in and then I saw that thank you
"Logue Lady" - that's pretty great :D
thanks hehehe i made it
Yes and the one at 7:49 definitely sounds like a little like the pads in Laura Palmers theme from Twin Peaks also. The one sampled by Moby in his song Go.
@@nickkwas8028 Dude, Thank You. This preset alone makes me want to buy the synth!
2:31 which made me buy this immediately. This patch shows what it can while other pure analog synth cannot XD
good looks. sounds crazy.
This sounds like every video game I've ever loved
Wow man thank you. You’re the reason many of us are buying these instruments
That 2nd preset is so impressive, I love the demo sequence
#3 sent chills down my spine
Pretty much all of these were pretty inspiring. That's saying a lot for factory presets.
oh yeah
5:16 that siny thing is beautiful.
It really is!!!
Little bit of a BoC vibe there. Really nice.
russianvoodoo Biosphere - from either Patashnik or Microgravity
I picked up a white one today. It’s just perfect. I have a Rev2, SE-02, Omnisphere and Keyscapes plus the Roland cloud and this is my favorite hardware. I can sit by the fire with it on my lap and make the most massive soundscapes in my headphones. It’s so intuitive. Accessible and deep all at the same time. Fantastic.
The SE-02 is amazing, most of my newest tracks the SE is used the most, of course the VC-340.
Can you use this in a proper way to control Omnisphere? Also considering the XD and already have Omni and Keyscape (plus other softsynths)
Thanks for another video only playing the presets from the unit! When you did it for the Digitone, it gave me a clear idea that it was perfect for me (and bought it at KnobCon in Sept). Now with the xd, as a current minilogue owner, I can tell this is absolutely worth it.
Korg never fail with sounds that you feel in the gut.
Well programmed patches, good effects, a third oscillator and a warm fat stereo sound... Now its a major deal! Thanx for this demo! :D
7:49...Moby-Go! Must buy of the year.
Wow some of these presets are half complete tracks. Add some drums and a bassline and you're good to go. I'll get this. Thanks for showcasing!
shhhh... thats between me and u
these things are freakin gorgeous... AND FUNKY
man these sequences are insane, half complete tracks, geez lol
Ringtone generator of the year
I cant unhear this now
No sQuares and sines - it's true. Sounds like a piece of Chinese metal can.
16:32 I've been looking for this exact theremin style sound for a very long time, and to my surprise it's a preset for the minilogue xd!
While some prefers redesigns from the past this one is the future. Some really nice automation features and it sounds really amazing this one.
Agree!
Just got my 0-Coast going with the Minilogue XD.... playing both instruments in unison is creating some of the biggest sounds ive ever heard :) Thanks for all your inspiration loopop!!
Eventually bought one and got it today, this saves me finding things I like
to start with, good range on board already. Next I will watch your tutorial
and take notes, then I will unpack it 😀
Thanks for this upload.
The overall tone sounds improved. Great!
Each demo I hear of this synth makes me want one even more. thanks.
6:03 - patch 045 - Logue Lady - I see what you did there, Korg!
my logue has a message for you
5:44 sounds like wii music
6:04 shoutout Korg for this one
This is an invitation to buy it :)
And the winner of the 'Best factory bank on a Synth' category goes to...
They are very good, (surprisingly) but there are quite a few other synths that have great factory presets/banks. Access Virus TI2, Korg Prologue, DSI OB-6 & REV2, Alesis Fusion have lots of great factory presets. The Behringer Deepmind 12 has tons of incredible factory presets.
@@gjc82071 Yeah, that's true. It's a qualitative judgement.. Lots of variety in the bank, all high quality, seems this synth is full of sweet spots. Heck, it even does a pretty convincing 303!
@@gjc82071 I must disagree, the deep mind has some pretty lousy presets imo.
@@bond4177 It guess it's a matter of personal preference. 😉 I guess It also depends what type of presets you like. Personally I love "pads", especially motion pads, evolving pads, etc, & I also like interesting SFX type presets. (which are your favorite types of presets?)
Like most synths, the DM12 has many crappy presets but IMO it's got 100s of awesome presets, too. BTW, I hope you'll to check out my little DM12 custom presets demo. Thx. 😎
th-cam.com/video/DfBE7j5DecM/w-d-xo.html
@@gjc82071 Yeah we basically have the same taste in presets, that's the kind I like. I played with a deepmind 12 for about 4 hours total between two days at guitar center, and I was not a fan of the presets I did go through (didn't get through them all)
Twin Peaks at 6:04 Beautiful
Edit: At 7:50 too 🙂
Holy shit this thing sounds beautiful
love it! It's like a Polyphonic Monologue with a lots more features. Warm, clean and with an extra oscillator. Good job Korg! Affordable synth.
In fact, is a powered up Minilogue.
I'd say it's a souped-down prologue!
If it had the Monologue's sequencer, I'd upgrade in an instant. As it is, it's still tempting, but ATM I'm more interested in Eurorack.
1:45 Limp bizkit chocolate starfish and the hot dog flavoured water album 'Intro' track .. it was played on Micro Korg.. nice to hear Minilogue XD pull that off with analog circuitry..
Did any of the complainers note that a full review is forthcoming,? SMH.. I like the "No talking" feature of this channel.
A full review is coming? :3

Hey :) , if you want these patches: th-cam.com/video/i2rq9cMMt2s/w-d-xo.html I can sell them for 5$ :D
18:33 is amazing.
Seems like it has a different character than the OG, which I guess means I'll have to get both.
yes
@@yonderling been a huge fan for a while! Keep it up! -Mansfield Social Circle
@@mattd9336 caught us out here getting distracted with the new minilogue, haha! Thank you for the support, new tunes very soon
Just ordered this one ! And one of the reason was your video. Thank you man !
Some presets sounds just like chernobyl ost :)
These preset patches are soooo Japanese video game sounding. What an amazing machine, a future classic I think. Definitely getting one.
I think ghostradioshow did some of the presets! His stuff gives old school shooter vibes a lot of the time.
THIS IS IT!!!
My journey into Modular Synthesis begins with THIS THING, a DFAM and my MPC ONE!
Do y'all realize how much work it was gonna take for a BEGINNER like me, to get The MOTHER 32 to do ALL THIS STUFF??
Mother can join the party later... as for NOW...
IT'S A WRAP!!!
The Minilogue fills a nice niche for musicians that want more than a mono synth, but don't have room for or want a larger KB. Bedroom musicians, young people that don't have a lot of money but want more than an entry level synth, or musicians that have a workstation or larger digital piano that want more sounds without taking up a lot of space and doesn't cost a lot. A very capable 4 voice synth with the filter from the larger Prologue series. It now has a joystick instead of a lever. The next step up is an 8 voice 4 Octave KB and the top of the line is the 16 voice 5 octave Prologue. Buy what version you need, have space for, and can afford.
Beautiful, I have gearlust for this little synth.
Me too!!
this will be mine for sure. sounds so good.
This synth slays. It’s so neat how many options are available!
Alright, I'm convinced. For some reason every minilogue video failed to convince me about the sounds coming out of this synth, but there are indeed a lot of possibilities there.
5:25 ......thanks for doing this.....i like this for the step sequencer, sequencing chords, automation....instant
Nice to watch your videos. You show us and explain us how machines work. Not about your personal lifestyle. Thank you!!!
I love that he let Future Pulse play a bit, my personal favourite preset when i had this hahah.
It sounds soooo cool! Wow! Thank you for sharing this :)))
Это палитра красок в руках художника а не набор цветных фломастеров из 12цветов спектра....браво Korg!!!👍
Thank you for running the gamut for us.
I've pre-ordered mine. It should arrive in late March, so they tell me. Can hardly wait.
5:01 - Pink Moon by Nick Drake?!
Pink pink pink pink pink moon ..
Radiohead?
The preset is called "Mini Moon". Makes sense 😉
Definitely
20:08 Wonderful
Hey YOU! You've been looking for that typical ANOMALIE synth-sound for years, right? now you finally gonna find it THERE ----> 03:53!!!
Wait what song did Anomalie use that sound in? I’m a huge fan but I don’t recognize it.
Many thanks for the preset rundown! This synth is on my short list to pick up this year😀👍
I love that it has Sync in and out! this was actually the main reason i haven't bought a minilogue.. veeery tempted to by the xd now..
I've got the desk-top version arriving on Monday. I hope it's still a good choice in 2024.
3:07 is amazing!
Thought I was gonna pick up a Novation Peak... finding it harder and harder to go more than 2x the price the more I see from this thing! Korg is killing it.
Wes Marsen same
I understand where you are coming from. I would suggest you try and get some hands on time with both - they are quite different sounding and the Peak offers more complexity but you may not need it. XD sounds good eh?!
It wasn't a contest for me between the Peak and the Prologue and it's definitely not a contest between the Peak and the XD. Two VCO's and a digital oscillator wins on both occasions for me.
Yeah, I don't want my comment to be misinterpreted. They're obviously different price ranges and I'm not saying they're the same or can do all the same things. They're definitely different. Still though, in terms of just plain musical inspiration I feel like this got me nearly as excited as the Peak and of course for a much lower price point. No hate on the Peak, I have tried it myself, and it sounds verrry nice.
@@marsensound the Peak has an obvious advantage in modulation possibilities. I was just expressing my own personal opinion between the Prologue and the Peak. After getting the Prologue I was considering the Peak to go with it but in the end I left it alone. Even my store salesman who had a Peak sold his to get a MODX which I can understand. I just didn't connect with it when it came out where-as I did with the Prologue straight away when I played it. My advice is play both in the store and go with the one that you connect with the most.
wow!..at 5:15 sounds like heaven! 😌🎼
The factory patches are great as well as the XD releases from Ultimate Patches. Also, RawkPatches makes some really cool vintage patches for the XD that are band specific.
That ultimate patches vid is the reason I keep hovering this.
Next purchase! Thanks so much for this! Those little sequences are giving me SO many production ideas 💡! Thanks again!!👍
This thing sounds great! so much character in those sounds.
Ok you got me this sounds awesome also as it looks like less menu diving and getting a track together quick👍
4:00ish... doooope. sounds like it's got more voices than it actually does.
The Last 50 Presets are Awesome ! 🙂 Wonderful synth for 80's Movie or Funk/HipHop too
Geez...was casually listening and 069 BrightStrngs at 12:39 made me stop what I was doing and take notice. Wow. Reminds me of Moby's Porcelain.
3:22 My favourite to play with when I had one of these for a few days T_T
Thanks for your effort, this is really helpful! Most of these sequencer parts were not my cup of tea but there were some really great tones.
I have a Prologue and had a Monologue and this is seriously the best of both worlds. I really wish they would add the sequencing to the Prologue.
Korg could have easily added that to the Prologues but the marketing department probably won on the day, save it for the new XD
I was really excited when the Prologue came out because I already loved my Minilogue. Then I realized that it didn't have a sequencer which was such of a let-down that I decided to just skip it. Happy I did so. The xD really seems to have all that I wanted from my next *logue
17:30 is Nihls Frahm. Weird.
Just bought this. Can’t wait to give it a blast today.
Sounds and looks lovely.
5:16 really remind me of Cloudwalker II by Biosphere.
*drool* I gotta have it.
I'm selling my original Minilogue 'cause this thing sounds so much better. Those onboard reverbs are incredibly lush!
I have the original Korg Minilogue which I bought for $400.00 new. I pretty much only like 3 of the preset sounds. However, I am now able to take those 3 preset sounds and tweak them to sound an entirely different sound which I love. I'll keep mine for now. This is however, an amazing sounding synth. Thanks for posting these great and helpful TH-cam vids!
I don't have this synth (got an original Minilogue), but I've watch this video just sooo much that I know all the sequences by heart :D
First sound and you already know it's a real deal.
Man, I wish Korg would have let me do some sounds for this. Ah, well. These factories are way better than the original!
Adam Borseti Yeah dude maximum respect, you knew how to made the original Minilogue sound alive.
^^^
I've debating HARD over what synth to get next and it's really come down to this vs. the Mother-32 or Bass Station (I was mainly looking for some bass because sometimes my monologue sounds too muddy). But the more I see what the minilogue is capable of, the more I'm enticed to buy it. I mightttt just do it.
Like that pop sounding glossy filter with just a touch of reverb. A likeable sound. Useable presets to create lots of music for videos.
5:02 is gorgeous.
3:17 very pilotredsun, love it
For some reason a few of these remind me a bit of a Roland D-50... Maybe because some of the digital oscillators sound a bit like samples?
Also, the effects!
Love it from the very first sound
Wow. Just wow. I just bought a Yamaha MODx. How come all this amazing stuff hits at once now.
ModX is a better choice in my opinion more variety , especially now that they added a sequencer feauture in a update!
Agreed @@elyad67 Spoiler alert though, I have both now haha. I use the MODx more but dig both.
Got myself this wonderful synth last week... Love it...
Such a throaty character i think its one of the synths you can instantly recognize
Nice i am going to be adding this soon i can put it next to my Micro Freak
Sounds like a mini prologue, nice.
