Product Description

Opsix SE is a digital synth like no other. With a premium all -metal design, 61 -keys, and aftertouch, it unlocks a new world of sonic capabilities. Building on the expansive sound engine in the original Opsix, Opsix SE enhances it with increased polyphony and voicing, resulting in a synthesizer created for superior performance and precise control. The Opsix Operator Mixer simplified FM synthesis for the first time, making it not just comprehensible but also controllable. With the addition of extra synthesis capabilities and programming, it offered a more efficient workflow and an even richer sound. The Opsix SE takes this even further. It is equipped with Korg's premium 61 -key natural -touch keyboard, complete with aftertouch, delivering the exceptional tactile experience expected from Korg's flagship workstations. With a sleek, robust metal body, it's built for both the intensity of live gigs and the precision of studio sessions. The metallic knobs are optimally weighted for effortless adjustments. Underneath its exterior, the Opsix SE boasts an incredible capacity of 80 stereo voices of polyphony.

Opsix SE was born out of the desire to play this incredible synth with both hands. Equipped with Korg’s premium 61-note natural-touch keyboard, the Opsix SE offers the same outstanding tactile response as Korg's toptier workstations. Aftertouch puts unparalleled control of all the exceptional Opsix sounds at your fingertips. Of course, we've modernised the factory Performances for aftertouch and introduced some fresh ones to the mix as well. In fact, most of the Opsix SE programs have been revised to make full use of aftertouch, extended keyboard, and polyphony.

Key Features:

  • Direct Hands on control:
    Whether you’re tweaking a preset or building a patch from the ground up, the six data entry knobs on the right give you quick access to the parameters you need and seamlessly sync with the large OLED display, giving you a clear, focused direction to your workflow. Coupled with the mixer, it makes creating fresh sounds super easy and, most importantly, fun! Select from a full range of analogue-style filters, from the radical Korg MS-20 lowpass/high-pass filter to the powerful yet smooth Korg Polysix low-pass filter that gives your sound a vintage feel. There are also two or four-pole low-pass, high-pass, band-pass, and band-reject filters with resonance. There’s even a built-in spectrum analyser and oscilloscope that gives you visual feedback via the screen on the music you’re making.
  • Built to last:
    The Opsix SE showcases a notable upgrade in aesthetics. A slim body, specifically designed for this instrument, features a striking brown painted aluminium control panel, paying homage to vintage machines. Together with the vivid, illuminating LEDs, it brings a vibrant energy to any stage performance. The side panels, painted in a sleek black metal, amplify the overall aesthetics for a luxurious finish. It also comes with a bespoke hard case, it also has space for cables and power! On tour, rehearsal, moving house, or taking it to another studio, it will be well protected.
  • Six-in-one synthesis:
    Opsix SE is FM-based, but the similarities to the classic synthesis end there. The Altered FM architecture delivers sounds across a vast spectrum, far wider than any single synthesis has been able to cover before, thanks to new sound components; new waveforms, filters, shaping, effects, LFOs, envelopes, modulations, and more, all translating to its broad assortment of sounds.
