01Overview

KorgOdds is built for Korg's own synthesizers rather than a computer host. Sinevibes positions it as a way to add complex, changing parts to existing hardware. Its dual-oscillator engine covers several sound source types, including virtual analog, FM, phase distortion, waveshaping, ring modulation, cross modulation, bit reduction and hybrid combinations. A variable note trigger probability and per-parameter randomization let simple sequences produce evolving pitch and tone patterns. The plugin also includes a multi-mode filter and a flexible modulation generator.

Sound Sources and Engine Character

The core of KorgOdds is a dual-oscillator engine with multiple sound source types. These include virtual analog, FM, phase distortion, waveshaping, ring modulation, cross modulation, bit reduction and hybrid settings, for 80 variations in total.

The waveform generators run at a 96 kHz sample rate with an anti-aliasing filter. A built-in -12 dB/octave multi-mode state variable filter shapes the output after the engine.

Sinevibes notes that the synthesis is designed to suit a small modular-style approach within a single device.

Randomization, Modulation and Workflow

KorgOdds lets you set the probability that a note triggers, so some notes can be skipped. Pitch transposition, sound generator tone, modulation depth and speed, and output level can each be randomized independently.

The modulation generator offers 24 modes, including exponential and linear envelopes, a multi-waveform LFO with triangle, saw, square, pulse, trapezoid and peak shapes, sample and hold, and random triangle. Built-in lag filters smooth parameter changes and modulation, so adjustments stay free of stepping noise.

The plugin ships with 40 presets for Prologue, 35 for minilogue xd and 35 for NTS-1, provided as preset tables, along with a user manual, a preset tables PDF and a Multi Engine Preset Converter utility.

05FAQ

Questions, answered

What hardware do I need to use KorgOdds?

KorgOdds requires a Korg Prologue, Korg minilogue xd or Korg NTS-1. It is a plugin for these three hardware synthesizers and is not compatible with other devices.

Which formats does KorgOdds come in?

KorgOdds is available in Prologue, minilogue xd and NTS-1 formats, each matching its hardware synthesizer.

How many presets are included?

KorgOdds includes 40 presets for Prologue, 35 presets for minilogue xd and 35 presets for NTS-1. They are provided as preset tables.

What is stochastic control in KorgOdds?

Stochastic control refers to the plugin's randomization features, including adjustable note trigger probability and independent randomization of several synth parameters. Sinevibes describes it as the way the plugin creates non-repeating melodic and tonal variations.
