Korg Prologue 16
Overview
The Korg Prologue 16 is a 16-voice polyphonic analog synthesizer designed for professional keyboardists, studio producers, and sound designers who need lush, expansive analog polyphony. Each voice contains two analog VCOs and a digital multi-engine capable of noise generation, VPM synthesis, and user-loadable algorithms, providing a vast sonic palette that extends well beyond traditional analog territory. The two-pole and four-pole filter modes, along with a drive circuit, offer flexible tonal shaping from silky smooth pads to biting leads. With 16 voices of polyphony, the Prologue can handle complex chords, layered pads, and thick unison patches without voice stealing, making it one of the most capable analog polysynths in its class. The 61-key natural-touch keybed is comfortable for extended playing and performance. Onboard digital effects include modulation, reverb, and delay, all with quality appropriate for stage and studio use. The Sub-Timbre feature allows splitting the 16 voices into two independent timbres for layering or keyboard splits, effectively creating a bi-timbral instrument. The chassis is built with an aluminum panel and solid wood accents. Ideal for professionals who want flagship analog polyphony with modern flexibility. The size and weight of the 61-key, 16-voice version make it a significant stage instrument that requires dedicated transport planning.
