Is the Korg Wavestate MKII holding its value?
Used Korg Wavestate MKII prices have been stable over the last 30 days, hovering around £312. That points to steady demand without dramatic supply changes — the kind of pattern that tends to hold over multiple quarters. Boxed, mint units still sell at the top of the range; rougher examples can sit £30-£60 below the average.
Units in better condition or with original packaging tend to sell at the higher end of the range, while heavily used examples sell for less.
Demand for the Korg Wavestate MKII remains strong among synth enthusiasts and producers, which helps support its resale value.
The Korg Wavestate MKII is a 37-key wave sequencing synthesizer that builds on Korg's Wavestation legacy with a modern sound engine. With 96 stereo voices of polyphony, four layers per Performance, and the Wave Sequencing 2.0 engine, it creates evolving, cinematic textures and complex rhythmic patterns that conventional synths can't touch.
Wave Sequencing 2.0
The core innovation is Wave Sequencing 2.0, which lets you independently sequence timing, pitch, shape, and sample selection across separate lanes. Each parameter lane can have a different length and step probability, creating patterns that evolve organically without repeating predictably. A Step Sequencer Lane doubles as a modulation source for driving other parameters from the sequence. The MKII ships with 1,042 Wave Sequences and 799 Programs, plus 261 Performances that layer up to four Programs together.
Effects
Each layer gets its own Pre FX (decimator, guitar amp, compressor, ring modulator, tremolo, wave shaper), Mod FX (chorus, phaser, flanger, wah), and Delay (L/C/R, multiband mod, reverse, stereo/cross, tape echo). Performance-level reverb (early reflections, Overb) and a 4-band parametric EQ sit on top. Up to 14 effects run simultaneously across a Performance.
Filters and Modulation
Filters pull from Korg's catalog: MS-20 lowpass and highpass, Polysix lowpass, plus 2-pole and 4-pole lowpass, highpass, bandpass, band-reject, and multi-filter options. The modulation system provides 3 envelopes, a vector envelope, 3 LFOs, 2 mod processors, 2 key tracks, and the step sequencer lane. A joystick mixes layers and modulates parameters in real time.
Who Is This For?
- Ambient and cinematic composers who need evolving, non-repetitive textures
- Sound designers wanting a deep, programmable synthesis platform
- Live performers using the joystick and vector envelope for real-time control
- Producers seeking timbres that stand apart from standard analog and VA tones
