All About the Korg multi/poly native Synthesizer Plugin
Korg multi/poly native Now Available
After the announcement of the software version of the Korg multi/poly hardware synthesizer at the NAMM show in January, the plugin is now finally available in stores and for download. Now you can use the synth in your DAW with the same features as the original.
Pricing and Availability
The multi/poly is an incredible hardware synthesizer. If you’ve had your eye on it but don’t have the space for it or the module, and don’t mind a fully software version, the Korg multi/poly native is for you.
The Korg multi/poly native is available now and until March 31, 2025 here at Plugin Boutique* for an introductory price of $149 / £149 / €157 (instead of €199). The plugin is available as VST3, AU, AAX and standalone. A demo version is also available for download.
Owners of the hardware multi/poly are eligible for a crossgrade license to multi/poly native at the special price of US $49.99, via a coupon code tied to the multi/poly hardware’s unique ID available in the multi/poly Editor/Librarian. See the Korg site for more on this.
Korg’s Excellent Virtual Analog Hardware Synth in Your Computer
[16 January 2025] Korg multi/poly native puts the multi/poly hardware synth inside your DAW.

Didn’t see this one coming! Or at least not this quickly. On the same day that Korg has released the multi/poly module, the company has gone and made the Korg multi/poly native available as a plugin for your DAW. And it’s fully compatible with the classic Mono/Poly-inspired hardware.
Going Native
As with other hardware-to-software ports in the Korg catalog, the new software version of multi/poly is essentially the same instrument, just minus the housing. It has the same four oscillators per Program with the identical Classic, Digital, and Waveshaper oscillator types. Is also has all of the multi/poly’s newly redesigned filters, covering the original Mono/Poly plus a selection of famous other filters.
Synthesis options continue with modulation, with more than a thousand modulation destinations per Performance. It boasts Motion Sequencing 2.0, which evolved from the wavestate’s Wave Sequencing 2.0. “Timing, Pitch, Shape, and four sets of Step Sequence values are separated into ‘Lanes,’ each with their own loop start and loop end, adding a deeper, more customizable level of phrase and modulation recording,” explains Korg in promotional materials.
Lastly, there’s Kaoss Physics, which you may remember from the modwave, three layers of effects, randomization options, plus more.
Patch Exchange
If you happen to own both the hardware and software versions, you can use sounds interchangeably between the two. This is done via the Librarian page.

What does fully compatible with the hardware mean? Can you use the hardware to control multiple instances of the vst. Is the vst linked to hardware control positions? Or is it just a basic import and export of patches?
$149 = €139
Why then does is cost €157 according to this post.
Why does it cost €160,33 on Plugin Boutique?
Sorry for that. Plugin Boutique uses daily exchange rates. That’s why it varies from day to day.
A bit unsure as to why Roland and Korg have VSTd so many currently available hardware devices. We just carry on with using hardware anyway. Thank God for Behringer, Moog etc who are focussed on hardware still. The honest truth is that, no matter how good they get, we were bored with VSTs by 2010. It seems sometimes like the gear users have more of a clue than some of the gear makers. Get an MS-5 instead, it’s an ace monosynth, all analogue.
No offense, but they do have more of a clue when it comes to numbers. The synth market is only big if you are a synth user, otherwise it’s marginal. Roland’s and Korg’s sales percentage of synths is just a fraction of their overall business, so why do you think Roland keeps rehashing their old stuff or Korg overprices their stuff to go down 30% a few months later? And with Moog… yeah thank goodness for their business model right. Got them bought up like everyone else, because building one Minimoog and trying to milk this to death isn’t exactly innovation, is it?
The honest truth is your truth, believe me. There are so many way cheaper, way more capable VSTs out there which you can touch and twist with mapable Midi controllers, but yeah, welcome to the world of “I have a wall of hardware, but no songs or gigs”. No offense, again. Also… why do people still think “analogue” means “better”? Baffeling.
