Korg Polysix Analog Synthesizer from the year 1982
part2: some typical self programmed Polysix sounds
The Korg Polysix is a very nice analog synths with a great sound. The sound is very different to the Juno synths.
The sound-character of the SSM filter, the Effect Sektion with Chorus, Phaser and Ensemble is really fantastic.
!!! The internal Ni/Cd accu has a leakage problem and destroy the circuit board. Remove the accu quickly! Check my page for more info.

The Korg Polysix Synthesizer from the year 1982 is a great polyphonic analog synth. For the most people the rival of the Roland Juno-60 but the sound character is very different. The P-6 sounds more like the 70s. Here can you find the full Polysix playlist with single sound demos and one synth demo tracks. Enjoy.

I keep coming back to watch PolySix vids. It’s the most unique sounding of the vintage boards to my ears. I keep my fingers crossed that it’s on Korg’s itinerary of vintage re-issues.
great synth
It seems like it is hard to get anything but cool sounds out of this synth! Sounds much more "vintage" than the Juno to my ears.
Thank you for demoing a synth I actually own. This way I can hear more of what I can make it sound like. Some of the sounds like the bells I would not have thought of. Now I can approach programming the synth knowing it has the potential to make sounds that I want to make. ✌
thank you for watching :)
OLD HORROR OR SCI FI FLIMS SOUNDED BETTER WITH SYNTHS LIKE THESE
Yea it has the potential to give you those sounds in some genres. 🙃
Such a great synth to learn with. I have multiple synths now and this one makes the most sense for a noob like me.
yes great for learning sound synthesis
@@retrosound72 The simplicity of the early synths make programming a bit more intuitive. Companies are so competitive to include every bell and whistle now that it makes it intimidating to a newbie and half the features end up languishing in the perpetually unused bin.
Love it. Such a big beefy sound. I wasn't expecting it. Well done. I'm salivating so tasty.
Thank you
How could I forget it, that I had written a long time ago, that I would be very anxious for Part 2? Now I am here again, and I have added also Part 2 to my favourites now. These 2 old legends, Korg Mono/Poly and Korg Polysix, they both sound so good, that they get my 5 stars now... ★★★★★
Ein brillianter Sythesizer, sehr schön und gekonnt gespielt.
Vielen Dank fürs hochladen!
der Klang ist einfach der Hammer...!Danke für die Demo!
Jens
A really nice filter it has just as I remembered. And it's weight was also something remarkable on the road ...putting to stage wasn't easy. It was fit only on massive consoles. Thank's for the vid dude!
Aah, the KORG Polysex! A great synth! :)
Echt tolle Demonstration, danke fürs hochladen. Bin ein absoluter 80'er Fan und spiele in einer kleinen Band, in der Art wie Depeche Mode.
Ooh! Mein erster polyphoner Synthesizer. 1982 neu gekauft für 3187,- DM. Ich hab noch irgendwo die Rechnung.
Und wieder ein Flachback. Danke Marko.
Excellent Synth Marco. The polysix can sound very rough edged , but soft elec. piano too, very very nice. I really like some of the string pads you make here :) Brilliant demo as always
If you mostly play chords and need polyphony, the Polysix is better. If you want great monophonic sounds and occasionally want some pads or something, get the Monopoly. There is no perfect synth for everyone. I'd prefer the Monopoly, but a lot of people really love the Polysix.
some really great sounds here, as always. keep making the videos!
@Arthur60 True. It's because with digital everyone realised you *could* do this and that, but these days people are more concerned with what they *should* do.
Great sounding at 6:13!
Can’t wait to get my Polysix back from the synthspa! I’ve had it for 2 years with a missing voice, so every sixth note around (while in polyphonic mode) didn’t sound. It was depressing.
But getting it back next month supercharged w everything working, AND new real wood is gonna give me big stiffy. Hehe
KORG PolySix уникальный чинтезатор со своим фирменным звуковым функционалом
I miss my PolySix :(
Should I try and sell my great condition Polysix with a replaced battery and Modypoly midi + mod with the portamento knob towards my savings for a prophet-5 rev4?? D:
No. Are you crazy? :D
I wouldn't do it. Sure modern synths have more options but they don't have the personality of old gear.
I always enjoy your videos. Have have a question. I once saw an interview with Vince Clarke praising the Polysix, but criticizing th MonoPoly as the worst synth ever. What is your take on this statement?
haha I think the same.
especially the MP-4 filter sound is really crap.
Thanks for the reply. i wateched both the MonoPoly vid and the PolySix vid. The PolySix did sound fuller and more lush!
That's interesting. I actually tried a monopoly after I bought the polysix. I think the polysix does everything the monopoly does plus it has an extra 2 voices?
The reviewer was an idiot the monopoly us a beast
this musical instrument was used by the Russian musical group of Arrival when creating альюома "Space and Time"
Un très joli son ce petit Korg
The best bras
:)
No one is rally better ! Polysix - 1 vco per voice , 6 tone polyfony ! Monopoly -
4 vco per voice , 4 tone polyfony , small keyboard !
I love the Rhodes sound @ 1:16
@_@ DAMN!!!!!!!!! I love the sounds. I'm getting sick of the synths sounds that are out now, it's like......there's nothing new..........vintage sound always makes the heads turn =>
Ooh ja, der würde mir auch noch gefallen.
Great sounds.R
actually i am with you. i too prefer monopoly. more than polysix,
Do you think the Polysix was Korg's answer to the Prophet 5??? The User Interfaces look similar.
+skyprop more the answer to the Roland Juno-60. 1 VCO + sub oscillator , chorus fx, arpeggiator
I already own the prophet 5, a Juno 60, korg770, and Jupiter 4. would you next recommend this or the pro one to me?
yes and all others :D
RetroSound lol....I wish. actually I'm selling juno 106, esq1, korg dw6 and 8000 ,jx8p and eps1.i cant stand anything made after 84. ... but I think I'll pick the pro one. I have only heard others claim it's different in sound even to the prophet 5.
Nice!
wonderfull sounds marko :)
Hey can anyone tell me what a modern equivalent of this sort of synth would be?
This sound is similar Jean michel Jarre
Beast!
:)
Ok. thank you.
Yeah!
Great sound! Does this sync up with the Roland drum machines?
Hey Retrosound72,
I used to own a P-6 but I never really did anything with it. I do remember some of the sounds that it had though.
In the first 45 seconds of this video is the oscillator setting at poly or unison?
It sounds to fat to be in poly mode
die VST Variante klingt auch sehr gut, aber nur fast.
IMO Polysix is better and more usable (and has better, discreet, oscillators). Different things really.
Sehr space-lastig. Weit draußen im Weltall ...
Hhhmmm.. That very first sound in the video seems really close to the intro notes to MJ's "Beat It". I wonder if the Synclavier folks simply sampled this (or a similar) synth from this era.
I mean i know the "Beat It" intro notes are played with a preset sound in the NED Synclavier, but i don't know if the Synclavier does it with sample(s) or by using it's (FM only?) synthesis. No big whoop, just a random thought...
Brian Davis no connection on any level.
If you pick ONLY ONE, which?? Polysix or Monopoly??
Polysix
U did a dump of this presets?
Thanks.
Yea Stack those voiced up!!!!!
did you use a pre-amp? what one?
dude, that 5:25 sound is nasty!
What I like in these machines : 1 power cord input, 1 audio line output. That's all ;)
no fancy display lights and other confusing artifices.
And what do nowadays digital machines aim to? copy first ones :D
got 2 of these - Polysex is right
Könnte man doch anstelle von "TYRELL" bauen lassen;)
Let's harass Korg to reissue it!
To be honest, no experiance with keybords playing, don't wanna full You with wrong tip ! If You want to discower , what You really want , You should try to play boath and decide , this '' one '' is the best for You ! It's a diferent's betwen tehnicall details and hearing synth by playing ! Concider to tray Roland Jupiter 6 ! 2Vco per voice , 6 tone polyfony ( people recomends , latests years cos of tone stability ) Vintage Synth Explorer is the best page to find out teh details and expiriance !
which is better, polysix or monopoly?
go to korguser.net/shop/software/ buy the vst..lol
It doesn't even come close to the real synth, that VST is utter garbage really...
OOPS,
DUH, if I had read the f**in' screen I would have seen that it is.
Sorry folks, brain fart on my end.
