If I dont play life music, performances, only hobby at home productions, and I would like to learn more about Synth, to play with my guitar on logic, would you recomended multi/poly or some software ? :) its about the money what you get for money? :)
Thanks! Great tips - especially on handling the FX section :)
It sounds great - huge, actually - but I hated the UX so much I returned it.
Wow.... I will definitely try this!! Thanks!!
Hi Yuki, happy New Year! This synth sounds good. Korg is definitely doing good things with most of their modern creations. Too bad they are skimping a bit on the keybed. Unfortunately I have little room left, so I probably will wait for the vst version to be released. Not sure if it’s wise to replace my midi keyboard (fatar keybed) with it to make room. And I wonder how this actually compares with say the Dune 3 vst. The editor is a bit lackluster as well, it’s the same situation as with the Wavestate, OpSix and Modwave. The vst’s are a lot better/usable than the editor. I wish the would just make the vst capable to be the editor. Same as Arturia did with the Microfreak and Minifreak. Those are even free vst’s if you have the hardware. Cheers!
They should totally give you a free vst with the synth, especially for the price.
Hi, Yuki, is the keybed not the same as in Wavestate?
It is but it isn’t. The keys are the same but it has more resistance and the keys spring back faster. They tried to mimic a semi weighted keybed with the same mechanism it seems.
@@YukiTheSynthDragon Thanks!
I have a polysix. 🇨🇦
dude the keybed on my behringer monopoly is not too shabby!
On my wishlist, fer sher
awesome stuff
Summit is great. To bad Novation is stubborn with regards to doing something about moving from active patch in single mode to moving to bi-timbral mode while keeping that patch active in either A/B. Plus kinda sucks that filter gain and arp sync rate don't have interface knobs.
It is an Oberheim for me as well, plays/adds different character to music I like to make, looking forward getting it. Thanks for enjoyable presentation mate!
Please consider adding chapters
Nice video! How close to the TEO-5 can the Multi/Poly sound?
I will be making a video soon to see !
what a great sounding synth and thanks for a great upload! want to see more of this synth in the future
Great demo!, The Multi/Poly is a wonderful sounding instrument. It covers a very wide range of great analog style sounds. It's surprisingly easy to program too, even without the software.
Of all the things to praise about the Multi/Poly, it's really the virtual analog emulations that really impressed me with all the demos I've heard, including this one. It sounds really good. Thanks. 👍
I think Unison is where a lot of synths differ much and I especially like it on Oberheim Synths - wonder how unison on this one sounds
It sound really good and it has a stereo oscillator spread option for unison.
Sounds much like the Mono/Poly VST that I have had for 10 years. I think they ported much of the code to the digital chip in this.
didnt know about this synth! super nice sound to it even tho its va!
We all know there's a 200 dollar VST version of this synth incoming.
Did you play the UBXA keybed? Thats a very intersting one - seems the Poly D has a very bad one if its even worse than the one on the Korgs
Yes I had 2 of them in a row with the same super bad keybed. Multiple people including me experienced stuck keys. Also it is by far one of the worst keybeds I have ever felt.
UB-Xa keybed is roughly the same as the Poly D, just more octaves. I don't hate it - it's no Fatar, but it's not nearly as bad as the Korgs.
Virus TI vipes floors with this...
No not really, but enjoy your vintage synth. If it works for you, then that’s all you need to know. But don’t be all like, “Wah! Technology moves on! Wah!”
@@kcrosley I've owned both, kept the TI2, returned the Multi/Poly and bought a TEO 5 with the cash. 🤷♂ The Multi/Poly sounds huge, but the UX is horrific.
great overview, very helpful!
Excellent capabilities, but... Compared to real analog synths> Multi/Poly sounds really too metallic. Need warmth
The wood sides are actually keeping it fairly warm
This synth is on my “I want it but currently are not going to spend anymore on synths” list. I think it is a great synth, it sounds good and it has a super sequencer on board. By the way if I remember correctly from the WS, you can modulate pan with the keyboard so that is also a way to get good pan.
It's really a pitty that Korg cheapens out when it comes to the keybeds on these small form factor Synths. Whatever you like most of their new software/hardware Synths most is great Synths with bad keybeds. They might as well just make them in desktop versions without a dedicated keybed. There is no idea in paying for the hardware versions when the keybeds are cheap and without aftertouch. This is a nice VA Synth for a not great, but reasonable price compared to some of the old ressurected Analog Synth brands that goes for 4k and upwards 8k and they are ALL VA Synths. not one of them is real Analog. Lots of great features in the Multi/Poly.
The other ones have desktop versions but this one not yet.
The best VA hardware synth is the Virus TI, come on.
Just a shame that its Interface is lacking
@novalogue It's SO MUCH better than the Multi/Poly's UX, though.
This is a phenomenal synth, it replaced my Modwave. Gaining a fantastic VA engine and 2x the oscillators/layers was definitely worth losing sample playback. The Virus TI's still my favorite, as I love its 90s/2000s trance vibe, but this is a strong #2. As far as the editor goes, I had no issues on Windows and you can import wavetables just like on Modwave. The only annoyance is that if you have Modwave presets saved as "mwbundle" files you can't import them directly to the Multi/Poly, even if they don't use samples.
The virus is a beast for Deep House or anything Deep really. You can make it sound what ever you want it to sound, it's really versatile. But it really excel at bass.
@@olafsigursons Virtual Analog's an interesting category of devices. I'd say the Multi/Poly is better at emulating actual analog devices than the Virus is, in a mix it can definitely pass for a vintage synth unless you're doing things analog synths can't do (wavetables, tons of modulation). The filters have a lot of character, and it's good at emulating subtle detuning. The Voice Card tech's really interesting, as it emulates per-voice drift, and gives a unique sound to each device due to how it assigns CMT IDs. The Virus has a more "Virtual Analog" sound like you'd get out of a JP-8000, MS2000, or something from that era. I wouldn't reach for a Multi/Poly if I wanted to make a trance or house track, despite them both being VA synths.
Seems like when you say you aren’t going to buy a particular synth, you end up buying that particular synth. 😃 Nice review, and at least on YT it sounds great. Most VAs don’t tick my boxes sound wise, but this one is nice. That MS20 filter with resonance sounded great.
I own a few synths of varying prices and decades this ain’t my cheapest or most expensive but it’s now my favorite :) would love to see more vids!
Congrats ! Great synth … I wonder if you can use the Kaoss XY pad to control the Peak/Summit ? Thanks for sharing 👍🏻
pretty sure it spits out MIDI, where as the og devices only do it via USB
@@SouthShoreSonics it's not abt the CC chart, it's abt having to host a USB device then convert to 5 pin DIN MIDI.
For me, concerning the build quality (incl. key bed), the U.D.O. Super Gemini is at the very top.
Hay Yuki! Is the Vermona14 also for yu?
Wow! What a fun surprise! I really like that synth, especially as you showcased it. I can't wait to see the new content you develop with it!
Ultranova was a pretty nice VA, shame abt the buggy mod wheel.

The definition of hair-splitting.
Hopefully the L6 isn't as bad for you in the long run as the L8 was for me.
I didn’t like my l8 at all either.
@@YukiTheSynthDragon good! so it's not just me! lol
Zoom makes nice stuff. Have you tried it with your MPC Key 37 yet? I’m thinking of getting something like this to use with mine for when I do “kitchen table jams”. 😁
Not yet but I will. It should be class compliment.
Hey Yuki! Congrats on the new interface! It sounds great! I have a Scarlett 4i4 v4 and I am happy with it so far, but the Zoom wasn't even on my radar when I was looking at interfaces. I wish I had known more about it,. The only thing I "dislike" about the Scarlett is that I wish it had more inputs, but I was reluctant to go bigger at this stage of my DAW journey. Looking forward to the surprise! Is it snow? =) That's the surprise we're getting where I live! LOL!
HA! I got one too! And I will be getting a second one. GMTA!
It sounds great. Looking forward to your surprise. 😊
i have been looking at this myself (from a modular gear perspective) but i went a different route in the end. i just did an A-B with the audio on your last video and i have to say your voice sounds clearer to me on the previous video :-(. this sounds boxy and muffled in comparison to me, maybe something in with the eq or a compression preset ? a friend of mine got one of these zoom interfaces and is over the moon with it....
happy new year! cool update! stoked for the weekend surprise 😁
It’s a great sounding synth but as you said the memory use is extreme. And that makes it unusable for me, even on my M2 MacBook pro with 32 go memory.
Yuki post a synthesizer video and I get happy!!🎉 wish u a blessed 2025
One more quick question. I just realized that my deluxe is triggering the notes when the keypress is only about 60% of the way through its travel. It's consistent throughout the keybed. Does anyone else's do this? I didn't notice it until I was trying to play some more delicate stuff using 'keys' sounds. Thanks in advance.
TEO-5 is my new gear pick for 2024 too. Lots of great stuff came out but all I bought this year was a MPC Key 37 and the TEO-5. The Nightverb is on my want list too. Happy New Year and I look forward to seeing more videos from you!
Happy New Year. Thanks for sharing what you enjoy.
