The desktop module is equipped with the same controllers as the keyboard version, making it a great choice not only as an additional sound module for your keyboard or DAW but also providing excellent performability, giving you an easy way to include an analog polyphonic synth in your setup. It's also equipped with a poly-chain function that lets you connect it with another minilogue xd or minilogue xd module so that the two units can operate as a polysynth with a total of up to eight voices in your studio or on stage. Equipped with an analog synthesizer circuit and a digital multi-engine. Every parameter has been tuned in detail based on what musicians want out of their synth. The sounds range from the warm pads typical of analog to fat basses and crisp lead sounds, covering every situation. User customization brings out infinite potential. The unit comes with 16 user oscillator slots and 16 user effect slots that you can customize. Oscillators and user programs that you’ve created with the SDK (Software Development Kit) can be loaded into the minilogue xd via the dedicated librarian software, as well as oscillators other users share online. The minilogue xd module can be used in conjunction with another unit in the minilogue xd series for poly assignment settings. Specify one unit as the master and the other as the slave, and they will play as an eight-voice polyphonic synthesizer. This supports a variety of uses, such as a voice-expansion module for the minilogue xd or as a sound module for a DAW-based production system.

Equipped with an Analog Synthesizer Circuit and a Digital Multi-Engine
Voice structure of minilogue xd is 2VCO + MULTI ENGINE, 1VCF, 2EG, 1VCA, and 1LFO. In addition to the distinctive circuits found in the series, such as wave shaping to shape the overtones of the oscillator and a sync/ring switch, there's also cross modulation, a two-pole filter that can be both sharp and fat, and a drive switch that adds thickness and drives signal into minilogue xd’s filter. Every parameter has been tuned in detail based on what musicians want out of their synth. The sounds range from the warm pads typical of analog to fat basses and crisp lead sounds, covering every situation. The additional sound design possibilities of digital sound are delivered by the multi-engine: the third oscillator in addition to the two analog VCOs. This engine, which is equipped with three different types of sound generator (noise, VPM, and open-source user oscillators) lets you take advantage of a sonic character that's different than analog, and use it at the same time as the analog engine, infinitely expanding xd module’s potential through hybrid sound design.

User Customization Brings out Infinite Potential
The minilogue xd features a customizable open-source environment. The unit comes with 16 user oscillator slots and 16 user effect slots that you can customize. Oscillators and user programs that you’ve created with the SDK (Software Development Kit) can be loaded into the minilogue xd via the dedicated librarian software, as well as oscillators other users share online. What sounds can you create using the fusion of expanded digital oscillators with analog synthesis? Create original programs, share code, and participate in the user community. KORG even provides sample code to get you started.

Poly Chain Support
The minilogue xd module can be used in conjunction with another unit (2) in the minilogue xd series (1) for poly assignment settings. Specify one unit as the master and the other as the slave, and they will play as an eight-voice polyphonic synthesizer (3). This supports a variety of uses, such as a voice-expansion module for the minilogue xd or as a sound module for a DAW-based production system.

For keyboard-equipped models, supported in system ver. 1.10 or later.
Any combination of the xd and xd module can be used.
The two xd units can each play four voices, for a maximum total of eight voices. The master unit takes priority for producing notes, and the fifth and subsequent voices are assigned to the slave unit.

Great synth

Very nice nice this is my first synth and I picked this because it was said to be one of the best beginner options it can get a great variety of tones with some of the waves on the multi engine having an fm like quality and i can do daft punk things on it so I'm happy

Best of all worlds in Korg's analogue range!

The next generation of the Korg analogue line that started with the Monotron and Monotribe, evolved into the Volcas, then finally reached its final form in the original Minilogue, Monologue, and Prologue series. These are all great-sounding, feature-packed synths and the XD Module is perfect for my mostly keyboard-less workflow. Three-oscillator polyphonic patches sound amazing, and the unison mode is enormous. There are a few things missing to make room for the Multi-Engine, such as the ability to target your LFO rate/intensity with the second envelope a la the original Minilogue, and of course it lacks the Prologue's larger voice count and compressor, but I think this thing really hits a sweet spot that I've been looking for for years.
