NAMM 2019: Korg Minilogue XD hands-on demo

NAMM 2019: In true Korg tradition, the Japanese firm announced the new Minilogue XD a week before the show and of course we had to get our hands on one, just to make sure that it sounds as good as the specs would have us believe. Spoiler alert! It does.

We are joined in our compact and bijou studio-space, once again, by the delectable Si Truss to unbox the XD for the first time and run through some of the new features.

The eagle-eyed and eared among you will have noticed that we mention the new version now comes with a 16-step sequencer, of course we mean a 16-button, 16-step sequencer.

I take care of the reviews on MusicRadar and Future Music magazine, though can sometimes be spotted in front of a camera talking little sense in the presence of real musicians. For the past 30 years, I have been unable to decide on which instrument to master, so haven't bothered. Currently, a lover of all things high-gain in the guitar stakes and never one to resist churning out sub-standard funky breaks, the likes of which you'll never hear.
