Wavestate MkII Module Wave Sequencing Synthesizer

DesktopDigitalPolyphonic

Korg's Wave Sequencing engine has been a cult favorite since the original Wavestation in the early 90s, and the MkII Module brings that legacy into a format that finally fits modern studio and rack setups without sacrificing the hands-on control that makes these instruments so addictive.

This is a 120-voice powerhouse built around Wave Sequencing 2.0, which lets you sequence through waveforms and samples across up to four independent lanes, each with its own effects chain and modulation. The vector joystick morphs between those lanes in real time, creating fluid transitions and blended timbres that feel organic rather than preset-switching. You get three envelopes, three LFOs, and a full modulation matrix to route those sources anywhere, plus eight macro knobs on the front panel that are customized per patch to bring out the character of each sound. The filter section includes modeled versions of classic Korg designs like the MS-20 and Polysix alongside standard multimode filters, and you can stack up to 14 effects simultaneously across pre-FX, modulation effects, and delay stages.

The module ships with 261 Performances, 799 Programs, and over 1,000 wave sequences, plus 4GB of internal storage for your own samples. It's a compact 19-inch desktop or 4U rackmount unit with MIDI In and Out, USB connectivity, stereo audio outputs, and a headphone jack. The interface is straightforward—dedicated controls for the essentials, an OLED display for deep editing, and support for MIDI 2.0 Property Exchange and polyphonic aftertouch if you're connecting to modern controllers. Since its 2024 release, the Wavestate Module has earned respect from sound designers and live performers alike for delivering the same sonic depth as the keyboard version in a format that actually fits into existing rigs without taking up a keyboard's footprint.
