Korg Phase 8 Acoustic Synthesizer
The Korg phase8 Acoustic Synthesizer is an innovative eight-voice instrument that merges physical acoustic resonance with cutting-edge electronic control. Using KORG’s Acoustic Synthesis technology, it responds organically to touch, plucking, and environmental interaction, offering a fully expressive and dynamic performance experience for musicians and sound designers.
With 8 independent electromechanical voices, swappable steel resonators, a polymetric sequencer, and advanced modulation capabilities, phase8 transforms acoustic input into a versatile palette of textures. Its combination of real-time haptic interaction, parameter automation, and extensive connectivity makes it ideal for studio production, live performance, and experimental sound design.
Features
- Haptic sound generation using Acoustic Synthesis for organic, responsive tones
- Eight independent voices with swappable and tunable steel resonators
- Polymetric rhythm sequencer with step programming and unquantized live recording
- Amplitude modulation modes: tremolo and pitch-dependent effects with optional harmonic quantization
- Trigger delay for precise rhythmic control
- Full parameter automation over sequences
- Real-time interaction: touch, pluck, or tap resonators; AIR slider boosts acoustic response
- External control via MIDI / USB-MIDI and CV inputs; sync to external devices
- Sequences and notes can trigger external MIDI instruments
Specs
- Type: Acoustic Synthesizer
- Voices: 8 independent electromechanical voices
- Resonators: 13 chromatically tuned steel resonators (8 installed at once)
- Inputs: MIDI TRS-A In, USB-C (USB-MIDI), Sync In, CV In (+/-5V)
- Outputs: MIDI TRS-A Out, USB-C (USB-MIDI), Sync Out, 1/4" Line Audio Out, 3.5mm Headphone Out
