However, the Gear4music extended warranty scheme provides an enhanced service, and is designed to offer a higher level of protection than many 'free' warranties offered by some retailers and manufacturers.
The highlights of this enhanced warranty service are:
Please note that this extended warranty is currently only available on products sold within the UK, EU or EEA, and is subject to the terms and conditions as detailed on the extended warranty certificate provided.
For customers in outlying areas of the country, the price of the Extended Warranty may be marginally higher, due to the potential for higher collection and redelivery transport costs.
This enhanced warranty is in addition to the standard Gear4music and manufacturer warranty policies, and the Gear4music terms and conditions of trade. No statement or condition of sale contained within these terms affects or restricts your statutory rights as defined under the Consumer Contracts Regulation 2014.
Key Features
The Korg Wavestate MKII Sequencing Synthesizer is the latest edition of the now legendary Wavestate synthesizer, featuring expanded polyphony (now 96 voices), a premium-grade 37-note velocity-sensitive keybed and a revamped look. Not only that, but the sound library has been updated with fresh new sounds to inspire your creativity. Utilising the latest Wavestate 2.0 technology, you can now explore unchartered tonal territory, allowing you to create virtually any sound you can imagine. Pre-loaded with hundreds of genre-defying dynamic sounds and 120-note stereo polyphony; the Wavestate SE is perfect for everything from sound design to live performances.

Building on the success of the Wavestation, Korg have further expanded the Wave Sequencing technology for this Wavestate MKII synthesizer. With the Wavestation, the Wave Sequences had in-depth control over each step for duration, sample and pitch. This allowed the user to create unique sounding patterns that repeated. But what if those same patterns could be more organic? Morphing and evolving to create something fresh and exciting. Well, with Wave Sequencing 2.0 you can achieve that and more.
Wave Sequencing 2.0 provides you with multiple new ways to edit and interact with your patterns. You can now split apart timing, sample sequences and the melody; allowing you to interact and manipulate each parameter independently. You can also edit and morph new parameters such as shapes, gate times and the values on the step sequencer. Each of these independent parameters is known as a “Lane”. With each Lane you can decide how many steps you need, as well as dictating the start, end and loop points.
When the sequence is moving forward, each of the Lanes are combined which creates the output. This provides you with endless possibilities, allowing you to create set patterns that morph and evolve along with their parameters. You can also modulate a wide range of controls including the Lane’s start, end and loop points for each of the notes.
Jam-packed with controls, knobs and switches; the Wavestate MKII provides in-depth, hands-on control for creating cutting-edge sequences. The Wavestate MKII includes everything you could possibly need such as filters, envelopes, LFOS, effects and eight programmable modulation knobs. The ergonomic layout and in-depth control panel also make the synth perfect for live performances. As well as the pitch bend and modulation wheels, the Wavestate MKII provides you with a Vector joystick for a full 360-degrees of expression.
Nearly everything on the Wavestate MKII can be modulated. Most of the front-panel knobs and on-screen parameters can be modified using the modulation on offer. For further customisation, you can even modulate each of the individual steps within a sequence. The onboard modulation processors allow you to edit the mod signals, providing the means to dictate quantize, smoothing, curvature and other settings.
Roll the dice, once or twice. Capture your inspiration with the intuitive randomization control. Represented by a dice icon on the front-panel, the Wavestate MKII allows you to randomize parts/the entire sound. Randomizing the settings allows you to get new ideas and further your creativity. You can even randomize singular parameters such as the filter, Sample Lane or effects.
Jam-packed with fresh sounds. With a sample library in the gigabytes, the Wavestate MKII provides you with a wide range of cutting-edge sounds, straight out of the box. The vast library of sounds is a great starting point for creating sequences. The samples are comprised of sounds from Plugin Guru, Korg and some incorporated sounds taken from the Kronos and Krome libraries. It also features all of the original Wavestation’s samples as well as a library of Wave Sequences. The Wavestate MKII now allows you to utilise up to 96 stereo voices, delivering high-end clarity for a pristine sound.
One of the most versatile features of the Wavestate MKII is the vast library of filters. Add a touch of vintage character with the powerful MS-20 lowpass/highpass filters or start with the modern and sweet sound of the Polysix Lowpass. It also features a bespoke collection of resonant 2-pole and 4-pole Lowpass, Highpass, Bandpass and Band Reject filters. Also included is Korg’s very own Multi Filter, allowing you to create blends of multiple modes at once.
With a whole host of superb effects and layering options, the Wavestate MKII is perfect for crafting live sets. The production-grade effects are comprised of compressors, EQs, choruses, flangers, phasers, stereo delays, a Wave Shaper, Talking Modulator, Reverse Delay, Multiband Mod Delay and Overb (taken from the OASYS). It even features modelled effects, incorporating VOX guitar amp, VOX wah, multi-head tape echo and a range of vintage guitar pedals.
One of the most unique features is the Set Lists. Set Lists allow you to organise your sequences and patterns for live performances. The Set Lists provides you with instant access to your patterns at the touch of a button. With the addition of Smooth Sound Transitions, you can utilise previously-played voices and effects to ring out naturally.
The Wavestate MK2 features a 37-note keybed with velocity-sensitive for expression and fluid playability. The Wavestate MKII features a wide range of connectivity including balanced stereo outputs and a stereo headphone output. The Din-style MIDI jacks provide the means to connect the Wavestate MKII to other MIDI instruments and equipment. The class-compliant USB MIDI connection makes it easier than ever to use the Wavestate MKII for professional music production. It even comes complete with its own custom librarian program for Windows and Mac.
The unique dark aesthetic is reminiscent of vintage synthesizers with the addition of a crisp OLED screen which can be used to navigate settings, sounds and parameters. It also features 37 full-size keys which provide a comfortable feel when playing. From the stage to the studio, the Korg Wavestate MKII is a powerhouse in sequencing and sound design.
