Welcome to the KORG Minilogue XD synth Guide. This is not a review is a complete in depth, deep dive guide about the synth.
I tried to cover almost everything about the synth on one single video, so i don't block your learning by releasing part in different days. That's why is a bit long, but everything is thought and recorded in sections, so you can watch it as a course. You can navigate the timeline or click the chapters to see what you want.

@@aboutbeno Well,.... from now on is to have people ask me what my goal is on every video I make.
Sure thing x
The last two and a half hours of my life has been a long sequence of 'oh yeah, I forgot it did that' and 'wait, it does that?'
Great guide, thanks
Thanks !! Yeah, the minilogue shows you a simple face but it can do a lot more when you deep dive.
This is the most underrated video on UA-cam you should get paid so much for this seriously this information was amazing!
Dude. your content is legendary, never saw something like it. I maybe commented on youtube 3 times in my life, your content is top notch, much appreciated
The fact that you did this video in such detail and comprehensively, deserved more than my subscription. Thank you so much!
This course already teaches you more useful details in the first few minutes than any of the average minilogue tutorials out there...
This is the most thorough minilogue xd video on UA-cam. Love this synth so much I have 2 (module & key's). Your work is highly appreciated ...Awesome walkthrough!
Thanks !!1 WOW 2 ?...Well, they are good so why not hahah. Yeah., it is a great great synth.
I've considered this myself. How do you find the polychaining? For me it would be super cool to have a 16 oscillator monosynth in "unison" mode.... mental
But I saw this exact comment on the last minilogue xd video I watched. So one of you is lying. Who is it
This was by far the most comprehensive deep dive of Minilogue XD on the whole world wide web. Cannot wait for the Step Sequencer step. Well done, excellent work and thanks a million!
Thanks !!! Glad you liked it. That was the plan, make the best on the web. Or at lest try. Thanks for the comment.
My Minilogue XD comes in less than 24 hours, and this is the video I'll come back to once it is out of the box and ready to go!
This video just taught me a trick with the LFO. The fact that every key doesn't need to be in step with the other keys and can feel more scattered is very cool.
i’ve had this synth for a while and used it and enjoyed it but i always wanted to actually ‘understand’ what was happening. I’m like 25 mins in and have already learnt things. This video is clarifying what i know and providing an explanation so i hope to develop better control of the synth. And indeed other synths should i get any. So thanks so much. I wish i could get you a drink to say thanks- oh wait i see that is indeed possible so i will do. cheers . Best wishes to you and yours
Seriously been waiting for this, excellent!!
The work you are doing is such a huge effort that I couldn't avoid to buy you a coffee! Thanks mate, your videos are very appreciated.
Yeah I just saw it !!! Thank you a LOT, It really really helps to keep going. Today is not such a great day, I am recovering from something, when you have kids they bring home whatever pest they could find at school, so your generosity makes my day better sir. Thank you for the help :)
Amazing amount of detail. Thank you so much for spending all that time to document all the features and demonstrate how they act in real life! Truly awesome amount of knowledge conveyed here. This is the sort of video we wish the manufacturers would produce.
What a great 2 videos about Minilogue XD . Thanks a lot.
Thank you so much for your tutorial, which for me has a "aha!" in every chapter, as you explain, what`s the logic behind the scene. Essential! Enjoy your coffee! :-)
This tutorial is absolutely incredible. Thank you 🙏
thank you so much for this brief and interesting explanation of the synth, this helped me a lot to dive in a short time!
only 36mins in and learnt so much! Looking forward to watching the rest tomorrow. Thank you!
Seriously impressive amount of content! I've had the synth for 6 months, but feel like I've only scratched the surface! Thanks for the great video
Yeah, it's a great tool. It has a lot more of what you can see in the main panel. Thanks for the comment.
Wow. This tutorial was so in-depth and so wildly informative. I just bought the synth a few days ago and I had no clue about lots of the features that you've mentioned. Each time you said "looks like we don't have this here, but look we actually do!" blew my mind. To be honest this took me a few days to watch haha. I'm so excited to get to play with mine, and thank you so much for making this visual manual!!!!! On to the next video.
Learned so much just in the first 10 minutes. Thanks! Awesome video and seriously helpful
Great knowledge and excellent explanation, thank you very much for the excellent work!
Great review, best on UA-cam. Thank you, I have learned so much.
This is such an outrageously capable synthesizer for its price. Just when you think you’ve looked at everything, you go and load effects packs and multi-engine mods and you start all over again. Perfect for someone like me who wants a lot of synthesizers but is working in a confined space.
Yes, it's a very capable synth. Said it at the beginning, there is a reason why this is one of the best selling synths of the what, 5 year now ? It's great. I wish it had 6 voices, but for the price, you cannot really complain.
I just bought my yesterday so this video will really help me get going. Looking forward to it.
Thank you so much for this! Great explanation!
Thanks so much for sharing this very in depth tutorial! I have had the synth for a year- Only just got around to programming synths this month, and was glad that I could understand everything you discussed!
That was an amazing tutorial !! Thanks a lot :)
Thank you for this massive Tutorial and at the perfect time, too. I just bought this Synth a few days ago because i wanted to learn playing with them, i bought this after a 10 minute consultation in a shop and went for the XD instead of the normal minilogue because it was black instead of silver and i wanted that joystick thingy. I guess i hit the perfect machine on a whim.
Thank you so much I really appreciate your work
A great tutorial, not only on the Minilogue XD, but also on synthesis in general. I've subscribed, and I'm looking forward watching the next part. Oh, and I just ordered a Minilogue XD module!
Incredible amount of work !
A million thanks for all of the teaching, this is a must watch video for any possessor of this synth !
Amazing ! Loved it, thank you !
This video is amazing! You seriously nailed every explanation and saved me countless hours of reading through the manual. Thanks a lot
One of the best and most detailed walkthrough videos I can remember seeing about any topic whatsoever. Taught me a ton about a synth I realized I'd only scratched the surface of!
Amazing - thank you for this video!
Amazing tutorial. The phase modulation section it's very helpful. I learned a lot. Thanks!
Great tutorial, this was very helpful! I just got a minilogue XD and it's my first hardware synth, after this tutorial I'm ready to start experimenting 🙂
This is absolutely amazing content. I have seen many many synth tutorials the last couple of years, and this one truly stands out for me. Although I am somewhat familiar with basic subtractive as well as FM synthesis, this is a gold mine for people new to those concepts. I just received my minilogue 3 days ago, so this in depth ‘behind the scenes’ view was just what I needed.
It is still baffling for me that this synth is so cheap. An analog poly, with FM capabilities, the ability to use custom osc, a sequencer and amazing effects for 600 euros is a steal. I got mine second hand for 400, so i feel like I actually earned money 😂
Only thing I would have liked was more LFOs, but luckily, my Octatrack can fix that :-)
Looking forward to the sequencer video!
Yeah, It's a great synth and affordable too. That is why is one of the best selling synth in the world....there is no other way around it. And yea at the back you can expand the LFO'S with external gear, that fixes the LFO issue, which my only complaint about the synth. But well it is affordable, so I cannot really complain.
Thanks for the comment.
Thank you for your immense work, really
Amazing video. Thanks alot !
Thanks so much for this great tutorial 🤩👍👏🏻
I learnt so much about my minilogue xd!
This tutorial is much better than reading manuals.
OMG thanks so so much for your tutorial!! wouldnt have been able to get any of that wothout ur video!!
Thank you for all your videos ! Top notch 👍🏻
Gracias Mauricio !!! Un placer ayudar :)
This is excellent! There isn't a better walk-through on UA-cam! Thank you ...Subscribed.
Thanks !!! That was my goal, to make the best or to be in the top 5 let's say.
thank you for doing these videos - you have covered, in depth, a lot of the synths i own - crave, neutron, td3, K2, this...i am sure there will be more ....THANK YOU
Thanks for the comment !!!
thanks for this tutorial fam!!
I have the same synthesizer and I know it pretty well, but I learned a few new features from you. Looking forward to the next sequencer video. I didn't manage to make friends with the minilogue sequencer.
Thanks for the comment !!! It the sequencer comes out on Friday...same style, deep dive ad I've added a couple more things.
What a great, thorough video. I learned so much. Thank you very very much! You're a great teacher, super clear explanations and very well presented. I feel like neo learning kung fu after watching this video. Thanks again!
hahaha, thanks men. You can say "I know Minilogue XD" :)
Thanks
Wow, thanks man. Glad you liked it and today's coffee is on you. Thanks man, you are Grande :)
This was incredibly useful! You're the GOAT
Subscribed to your Patreon 🙏
meeeeeh, thanks brother. Ohh Patreon !! Wraptile right ? Thanks, I really need the support to keep this going, so welcome and thanks for the help.
Tremendo tutorial! Excelente. Muchas gracias
gracias a usted señor o señora.
Just listening to this on my way home from work and I've already learned a lot 😀
Thanks for the comment !!! I can't stand my voice haha, but I believe that is normal.
Appreciate you! Thanks for the in-depth
My pleasure!
Great walk-thru, man! Thanks.
Thanks :)
Thank you for this great tutorial!! 🙏
Thanks for the comment :)
very extensive but useful, thank you!
Excellent information. Thank you
Merci de France pour ce tuto de la mort tout y est avec ça il y a de quoi bien comprendre le xd merci à toi pour cette énorme effort
W tutorial
Straight to the point
Thanks for the great video.
Very well done. You managed to make it understandable,l even to me: this is my first synth and I don't even speak english very well. Bravo 👏🏻
I can’t be bothered to do any serious patch organizing on the synth itself… I was very thankful that I found the companion software for the PC. Being able to name and organize your patches with a keyboard and mouse makes life so much simpler.
Yeah the sunny synths app is the best.
Great video!
Great tutorial. Thx
Subscribed to your channel, this material was really needed, thank you very much!
Thanks !! I hope people like this so I can keep covering KORG synths and make more Minilogue XD content. Thanks for the comment.
@@XNBeatsMusic Looking forward to more!
@@XNBeatsMusic Honestly i would love to see more in depth Minilogue xd content, count me in!
Best XD manual out there 👍
Thanks for the comment !! That was the goal, try to make the most complete guide out there.
Very clear, thanks a lot mate
Thanks for the comment then.
Thank you soooooo much xxx
Awesome Video!!!!
Waiting for a vid like this.... thank-U!
Thank you for the comment then.
i'm getting my XD this week - i've been watching as many reviews and tutorials as i can find, and this is just fantastic. thank you so much for putting this together.
thanks ! So, did you liked the XD ?
@@XNBeatsMusic hiya, i've had it for five days now and loving it so far. this is my first hardware synth - i am a guitarist but have been messing about with Ableton for the past year or so but wanted to break away from the computer. i'm finding it all a little overwhelming right now to be completely honest - but it really is a beautiful machine and i'm really loving the noise i am making so far 🙂
@@_rootsman Been there !! Been playing guitar for 25 years. From Albert king, Pink Floyd, Vaughan all the way to Metallica, Megadeath ... it is a little bit overwhelming at first because is new information. But just like a guitar, more you use it, more you get comfortable and get those calluses. Takes time to adjust, just like everything else :)
Excelente la forma de explicar.. muy claro y conciso, gracias por tomarte el trabajo de poner esta información al alcance de todos
Muchas gracias !!! Es todo un arte tratar de explicar bien, trato de mejorar con cada video. Gracias por el comentario porque si ayuda. Gracias totales !!
Excellent! 🛸
Rock on!
Nice vide like always been
I learned so much cool things in this
Thanks mate. I'll try to keep it up.
@@XNBeatsMusic I've had my minilogue xd for about a year now and thanks to this I understand so much more on osc 3 :D cheers!!!
Thanks man for this
Well thank you for the comment.
AMAZING! Thanks a lo
I have not even hit play and I wanna say thanks for the video. I seen your other synth videos and know u will really help make me understand this one. Hope u do a Pro 1 one day.
Thanks !!! Glad these videos helped you. Pro-1, yes. I am waiting for a sale or a used one. The new prices right now are ridiculous.
@@XNBeatsMusic ah rubbish. Price of everything is crazy. Hopefully get a bargain. Is a great sounding synth
Ufff, thank you so much!
Thanks !!!!
Thank you!
wow thanks man. Today's coffee is brought by you :).... and I am finishing a Microfreak guide and an XD Patch series, I really need that coffee. Cheers Patrick !!!
Excellent tutorial, thank you! Discovered some features I didn't know about..
Just one thing I missed which might be useful to know for others: the "star"-symbol you mentioned in the effects section represents the value of a knob that's stored in the program / patch you've selected. Of course not applicable when you're on an init patch.
Thanks for the comment. Damn, this thing is still giving me thing to learn. One of the best Korg in history if you ask me. After the Arp and the MS20, of course.
Thanks!
Dang !! No thank you sir for your contribution !!! It really helps to keep videos going and coffee flowing. Thank you :)
1000 thanks...👍
Thank you🙏❤️
Nah, thank you for the comment. :)
That was really, really, did i say really? GOOD tutorial! TY ^^
hahaa thanks dude, glad you liked it.
@@XNBeatsMusic okay, i did it again (oops i dit it again ), watched one more time to remember some good stuff :D i think i own you a coffee now for sure :D
Thank you for the thorough walk-thru! Well done👍. One thing I don't understand: If you select a preset and select "Load Panel" and all the knobs & FX change to reflect their current, actual positions....how is anything really being saved?? If I come back the next day and load it, the only way it'll sound like what I saved is if I don't touch anything-just like a traditional analog synth. If I, instead, choose not to "Load Panel," then each knob I tweak will abruptly change the sound until I've gone through and turned each knob to reflect the intended saved patch-just like a traditional analog synth. So, the only way I'm really saving anything is if I never touch anything?
I love my XD but I do wish a few things were different. A numbered section to dial up the patches would have been MUCH better than scrolling on a knob. I also hate that it doesn't start up where you left off, so I really have to remember to include the patch number into the track title of the DAW. Also the Power button must be pressed on every single time, rather than having a switch that stays on and I can turn it on from my power conditioner. The USB Midi function no longer exists through my PC because KORG can't be bothered to update them.
You know it’s interesting because I had a mini Logee XT and I loved that joystick. I’m actually considering purchasing a pro log 16 and that’s the one thing that I don’t know if I can go without is a joystick like the minilog had. Especially with the filter cut off. I wonder if the prologue has the ability to reassign the mod and pitch wheels
Amazing deep dive, thank you so much for pulling together this and the sequencer video, I learnt so much. One thing, is it me or was the portamento knob not mentioned? Not that I can't look it up elsewhere, was just really curious to hear your thoughts on it too 😁
Thanks for the comment, glad to know the video was useful. Well, I make long videos and try to cover a lot of ground. Sometimes I forget things, shxx happens :) . But there is no fixing the upload on youtube, once is recorded, there is no going back.
@@XNBeatsMusic ah of course I totally understand! Do you have any advice on effective ways of using the portamento modulation? Perhaps what it works especially well with? (Sorry I'm a total n00b and learning about synths for the first time 😅)
Great video. Any chance of a moog sub 37 in the future? Thatd be amazing 💯
I would love to, but I don't live on a mainstream country. So getting MOOG gear is like finding the magical beans :S
Hey, thanks for an awesome tutorial! I have a question, do you know, if you can record motions without playing the sequencer, per step?
oh yeah, you can. I learned it from your other tutorial :)
wow❤🔥
Great video, Thanks!!! Does anyone know if it is possible to change the midi assignment for modulation? ie. I am using a midi controller to send midi into the xd. the modwheel on my midi controller is sending midi data to the minilogue xd, but it does not affect the modulation.
Great video 🌼🐝
I have a question about a behavior of the Multi Engine who annoying me. Why the wave is moving, oppositely of the VCOs? Is moving forward or backward depending of the pitch of the note. It make a kind of LFO on the shape when I combine VCO+Multi Engine 🥺🤷♂️
Korg abandoned the Minilogue XD
Thank you so much, i have issue with my clock sync in going crazy like 400 bpm…any suggestions please?
Are you still having trouble in understanding the scale knob mode? It's actually pretty easy once you get it and the best operating mode in my opinion. Thanks for the video man, cheers
yeah i think i get it. But it just so weird to me. Maybe I am too stuck with the old ways ?
I have a problem, when I create a sequence of short notes in a row and I have the EG int activated to the maximum, sometimes it makes random variations in the EG
