EXi: AL-1 Analog Synthesizer
AL-1 Overview
The AL-1 is Korg’s most full-featured virtual analog
synthesizer to date. It’s played from within EXi Programs, so
you can layer it with any other EXi–or layer two AL-1s
together. Its features include:
• Two ultra-low-aliasing oscillators, based on new,
proprietary technology
• Sub oscillator, colored noise generator, and live audio
input; FM, sync, and ring modulation
• Dual multi-mode resonant filters, including Korg’s new
Multi Filter
• Drive and Low Boost, for adding per-voice grit, girth and
distortion
• Four per-voice LFOs, five re-triggerable envelopes, and
a per-voice step sequencer
• Two key tracking generators and two AMS mixers
• Up to 80 voices of polyphony
• Access to all standard EXi Program features, including
the Common LFO, Common Step Sequencer, Key Track
1 & 2, Arpeggiator, EQ, and effects
Unsupported EXi Common parameters
The AL-1 supports all of the EXi Common parameters,
except for two of the voice allocation options: Poly Legato
and Mono Mode (Normal/Use Legato Offset). Both of these
options are designed for sample playback, and so they don’t
apply to the AL-1.
All of the other voice allocation options are fully supported,
including Mono, Mono Legato, Unison, etc.
