Interesting! Greg, you stated that most of the songs on your website are recorded on the Oasys. Do you mean by that that the Oasys was the only instrument used or also that they were recorded with the internal sequencer and without the aid of an DAW? What was the mixing process like? Were the songs ...

Replies: 1

The VCS3/AKS are in principle modular synthesizers with no fixed connection between the modules. All connections have to be made via the 16x16 patch matrix. This is true for audio connections as well as for control signal connections. Thus the output of the joystick can be routed to any control ...

Dear Frank, interesting piece of information. Where did you get it from? Can your source possibly help on getting the sound design charts Kevin mentioned? This is information available on the net. Look at this link http://members.tripod.com/kmi9000/kmi_multim.htm I don't know if the information ...

A possibility re. GS programs could be to enquire from Yamaha UK whther it is possible to get hold of original GS1 and GS2 sound design charts to program a DX1 as it also has polyphonic aftertouch; or alternatively to find out if the GS soundset was ever made for DX1/DX5 or even DX7. I think you ...

Hi fdspeck, try the KARO electric pianos. I myself have already heard a lot of E-piano plugins but shure the KARO Rhodes is the best thing I ever heard :!: Actually the Karo library doesn't match what I looked for. I don't want to diminish the work of Karo. I'm sure these are very well sounding ...

You seem to be taking good advantage of these features - I'd love to hear a few of your sounds to see what you're doing. Care to share? Unfortunately the sounds I have created are based on samples from professional libraries and because of that I can't share them easily. But maybe there are ways to ...

Interesting related note from the Operations Guide : Velocity-Switching Wave Sequences By setting each step’s duration to GATE, and then modulating the Start Step by velocity, you can create a sound with up to 64 velocity switches. For instance, you can use this to switch between a large number of d ...

One of the things I like about the MV,it also has a "seperate by Pitch" tool, ... No need to implement this feature if you have only 16 tracks. At least Korg is showing consequence here. Sarcasm aside, if someone has difficulties to understand why people would need more than 16 tracks, you can't ...

I know it's too late for the Oasys, sadly, but ... For me it's a bit early to give up. If Korg really wants to meet the interests of a considerable part of their users there would be ways which would serve both the interest of these users and Korg. Even in the economical situation as it is. Time ...

It's clear as day to me that not one of the KORG sequencer engineers use their own sequencer as day to day musicians. Yes, I also have the feeling that this is the cause of the problem. The result is that the sequencer was added to have it in the specs and to qualify the Oasys as a workstation, but ...

For some time I toyed with the idea to recreate the sounds of the Arp ProSolist with the VA synths of the Oasys. I own a Arp Pro DGX which is identical soundwise. But I figured out that I would need the Polysix or MS20 engines for some of the sounds with more filter resonance to get them right. Tony ...

I would also appreciate if the information about the Oasys hardware could be centralized somewhere.

fdspec, I disagree completely with your comment that the list of updates HAS no validity or that Dan has recited it too often. I think the whiners don't know or don't remember what has been provided as updates. Ken, I think you’ve got my argument wrong. Of course the list is valid. It’s an imp ...

Well, it's not only fictional, it's completely wrong, I can assure you. Korg Inc. did not abandon the OASYS to Korg R&D resources after release, and they were involved in all the decisions, planning and execution as needed. And members of the team, from strategic planning on downward do see the ...
