THE FOLLOWING IS THE SOFTWARE LICENSING AGREEMENT BETWEEN YOU, THE END USER, (REFERRED TO IN THIS AGREEMENT AS “YOU” OR “YOUR”) AND KORG INC.

When you know and are ok with this, you can reaaaally enjoy Wavestate.PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU OPEN THE DISK PACKAGE. It needs time to get learned, time to get lost in. I think that is why some people got disappointed with WS. It can also can be kind and take you where you want for basic but solid synth duties. This is where magic happens: it can bring you to sound places you never thought of. Like OT, you have to accept the untamed nature of WS. It feels a bit like Octatrack: spend some time to learn and manage one feature at a time before learning the next one.Īccept to get lost in samples categories.Īccept to learn some sometimes-not-so-intuitive interface design choices. When navigating through interface, samples, and mods, becomes easier, spend time only on wavesequencing.Īs WS basic synth duties are now a second nature, learning sequencing is way more pleasant. Or one 4 oscillators synth, each of them with independant amps, filters, … or 2 double oscillators synth, or… well, whatever. But as they are well organized, it becomes easy after some times noodling and getting lost.īased on this, WS can act as 4 multimbral synth controlled by midi. So you have to accept spending some time to search for the good sample as osc. One of the major difference with “traditional” synthesis is oscillators: they are samples. Most of direct control knobs are useful for synth duties: filters, amps, lfos, macros,… I was bit disappointed, but after some time decided to approach WS differently.ĭon’t even think of wavesequencing, first use this machine as a “traditional” synth. I quiclky found myself lost: sometimes I could design crazy good sounds (for my personal taste at least ), but often got overwhelmed by the massive amount of “samples”, ways to manage wavesquencing, the sometimes cumbersome interface, and so on. I would like to share my personnal feeling with Wavestate, the way I approched it first days I used it, and how I still learn to use it.Īfter spending initial first hours with binge preset listening/noodling/enjoying, I tried to use most of its features at the same time to create my own sounds.
