The Korg Monologue is a monophonic analog synthesizer from Korg.[3] Engineered in collaboration with electronic music artist Richard D. James (Aphex Twin), it was released in January 2017[4] and has two VCOs, 25 keys, and a sequencer.[1]
The Monologue was designed by Korg's then Chief Engineer of Analog Synthesizers, Tatsuya Takahashi, his last design before switching to another position within the company.[5][6]
It is a trimmed-down, single-voice version of the Korg Minilogue with various characteristics of its own,[1][7] such as the addition of microtuning,[4][7] a more aggressive sound due to an added drive knob, fuller low-end frequencies due to a Korg35 MS-20 style filter chip, and an E-E keyboard to make transposition easier for guitarists and bassists.
