Programming the Korg Wavestate QUICKLY

In this video, I begin by introducing how to use Multisample Mode to quickly create sound in the Wavestate. This bypasses using the wave sequencing functionality, and turns the Wavestate into a powerful and straightforward sampler. For the second half of the video, I write Layer A’s program and copy it to Layers B, C, and D, then add variation to create a very lush sound. I then show some ways that we can play with all four layers by adding velocity zones and changing between the layers based on the vector joystick and vector envelope. I hope this will help people to start creating sound with greater speed and ease on the Korg Wavestate.
