[March 1, 2016] These lights are powerful. I'm satisfied with this purchase. I love the temperature options and the addition of a stand is a huge help for my setup 5

[March 1, 2016] The Korg Monologue is a fantastic and fun two oscillator fully analog monosynth with selectable ring mod or sync on oscillator two. It lends itself naturally to bass tones and produces them well and with ease. Programming is fluid as almost every parameter has a knob or switch with an intuitive menu accessible through the sequencer buttons for things like tempo syncing the LFO, keytracking the filter, setting velocity control of filter and/or amplitude, assigning the bender, and naming patches. The sequencer is fun to use as well. I never recorded in real time, opting instead to step sequence, which acts as you would expect if you have used other step sequencers. I think it's a little odd that Korg opted for a 100 patch limit instead of a standard 128 but that's more of an observation than a complaint. I did not find many uses for the drive as I found it too aggressive & harsh in most applications but I don't take off pints for this. The LFO is very expressive and can even go up to audio rate in the fast setting, allowing for analog-FM style tones when assigned to any destination. Although this synth does not have full sized keys, they are not as small as say a microKORG or many controllers. They feel pretty natural to play and I wasn't hitting extra keys while using them. I would say this is an excellent first synth for anyone attempting to learn synthesis. However, even an experienced user as myself can find uses for the sound of this synth with its pure analog signal path and excellent sounding filter. 5

[Soft] This synthesizer has a marvelous filter compared to its price. Low ends with resonance are quite clear. I can achieve many different sounds with this according to my taste. It has some wave type limitations of course, but that’s reasonable for the price tag. If I was to have three hundred bucks and decide again, I would definitely choose Monologue. 5

[Routledge] This is an amazing little machine! Brilliant sound and features! 5

[220] I'm an electronic musician and I LOVE my Monologue! It screams, it bellows, it whispers, it grunts, it can be pretty, it can be quite ugly...well, you get the picture. There's nothing on the market quite like it! Value For Money - off the charts! Build Quality - solid Did I mention that there's nothing on the market quite like it? 5

[Soft] I purchased 4 of these from B&H in April of 2021. Never a problem with them in the field, or in studio as pictured. Would be nice if they had a readout on color temp., but I have them all marked now so I know where 32k, 40k, 45k,....etc. battery life is good with 2 charged NP750's, over an hour. Buying 3 more today. 5
