KorgFlare: Additive Synth Expansion for Korg minilogue xd

KorgFlare is an additive synthesis oscillator expansion by Sinevibes for the Korg Prologue, Korg minilogue xd and Korg Nu:Tekt NTS-1. It runs eight sine wave partials to produce timbres from smooth and organic to atonal and metallic.

01Overview

KorgFlare is part of the Sinevibes KorgFX Collection and works as an oscillator expansion for three Korg hardware synthesizers. Instead of relying on conventional waveforms, it builds sound from a harmonic series of eight sine partials. Those partials can be reshaped with several pitch ratio curves, and a spectrum trim control gradually removes upper harmonics. The result is a flexible additive voice for producers who want precise control over timbre on compatible Korg hardware.

Additive Sound Design and Spectral Control

KorgFlare's engine stacks eight sine wave partials configured as a harmonic series. Multiple pitch ratio curves change how those partials are spaced, which opens a wide timbral range from smooth, organic tones to atonal and metallic textures.

The spectrum trim control reduces the number of active harmonics. The developer describes it as acting like an ideal brick-wall low-pass filter, working progressively toward the higher frequencies. Sinevibes also states that the output is free of aliasing, which makes it suitable for clean, precise tones.

Modulation for Movement

KorgFlare includes a built-in envelope generator and LFO that can modulate pitch, the spectral curve and spectral trim. Because the modulation can be applied to three parameters at once, a single patch can move in several ways at the same time.

Built-in lag filters smooth parameter changes and modulation, so adjustments stay free of zipper noise and sweeps remain fluid. This makes the expansion useful for evolving pads, animated leads and moving spectral textures.

05FAQ

Questions, answered

What do I need to use KorgFlare?

KorgFlare requires a compatible Korg minilogue xd, Korg Prologue or Korg Nu:Tekt NTS-1 synthesizer. It is a plugin for these hardware instruments and is not compatible with other devices.

Which hardware is KorgFlare compatible with?

KorgFlare is compatible only with the Korg Prologue, Korg minilogue xd and Korg Nu:Tekt NTS-1. Sinevibes designed it for these three hardware synthesizers.

How many partials does KorgFlare use?

KorgFlare's additive engine uses eight sine wave partials configured as a harmonic series. Pitch ratio curves and spectrum trim can then reshape the spectrum.

Can KorgFlare modulate sound over time?

Yes. KorgFlare includes an envelope generator and an LFO that can modulate pitch, the spectral curve and spectral trim, with support for three parameters at the same time.
