Hi there, I'm looking to do pretty much exactly what you described here. I'm curious if the Mellotron samples you are using a complete 8sec per key samples or if you looped them. I need help understanding how the microsampler works. If you assign all 35 keys of the Mellotron to a single bank you ...

Hi all, Forgive me if this sounds elementary, but I'm new to this. Basically what I want to do is run keyboard samples like Mellotron, 8 sec per key, and assign via editor the correct note across any point in 6 octaves and playback thru a midi keyboard. Is the editor user friendly ? No transpose ...

Hi again, I was wrong in my last post, the 8 Choir is there in all it's glory. I had another look at the Tron Choir program tonight and the wave in question is buried beneath other Korg choir sounds. The sample is called Voice-Choir LP (sample # 208) and the best way to create this sound is to ...

Hi, On the Mellotron front there are genuine (although mediocre) samples of 3 Violins and Flute contained in the M50. No 8 Voice Choir, the program in question is a Korg choir processed to imitate the Tron one. Strangely though the Micro-X has a proper Tron 8 choir sample in it derived from the ...

Come on everybody, it's not that serious. We need to be respectful and considerate of each others opinions. The art of music-making is supposed to be first and foremost fun, isn't it. Anyway, no harm done, know in advance that I appreciate any advice and feedback that I can get from the members of ...

Please be patient if you've heard this question before, but I'm a recent convert to Korg. On my old Fantom there was a dedicated bank for 128 patches, or programs in Korg-speak, you did not have to overwrite any of the factory presets. 32 unused programs hardly seems enough, I suppose you can ...

Having spent more time trying to tweak Hammond sounds out of my M50, and still being a bit of a novice with a Korg interface. I have found at lot more potential lying beneath the surface of the M50 for organ creation than I initially thought, and am starting to get more satisfying results. It really ...

Thanks for that. Had a feeling that would be the case. That's something to add to the wishlist or ideas for improvment. I do believe you should be able to turn it off. Some people are very sensitive to flashing lights, even tiny ones. If not in use, why does it need to continue to flash ...

Following on from what MartinHines wrote : The reverse is also sometimes the case. A product might state "Made in Japan", having the boards and various other componentry manufactured in Japan and then shipped as parts to be assembled and packaged in China. I must admit I felt slightly nervous when I ...

I am still relatively new to Korg keyboards and their interface, so excuse me if this is obvious and I just somehow missed it. (Can I) or (How do) you stop the LED flashing below the tempo knob ? If I'm not using a drum pattern, etc, I find it a little distracting. Particularly in a dimmly lit room ...

Rather than including this in my previous post I thought I'd ask this question seperately as I believe it warrants it. I mentioned that Korg appear to keep recycling old samples, as well as falling behind the competition in terms of good acoustic sounds. I don't care as much about strings, brass ...

I finally got my M50 (61) on the weekend. After giving it a good workout, I have come to a few conclusions regarding it. The good : - I adore the new Piano. - a touchscreen at this price range, brilliant, the best way to edit and generally get around your keyboard. - the combi's are heaps of fun ...

I'll second that last comment, I also love this thread. There's nothing like a good clonewheel/organ sample debate. I really like Korg's organ sounds. However, in the M3 and the M-50, there is just not enough of them. We're not talking about patches, but waves, the raw material you use to build ...

This one's got me curious. How can you create any B3 organ sound you want on a workstation. In terms of versatility I would say the Roland SRJV waves were the most versatile because they individually sampled the 2nd, 3rd percussion, all drawbars, many with chorus and leslie settings as well as a few ...

Thanks for the replies everyone, Interesting stuff, McHale and boogieman both reckon that the 73 feels different (better)than the 61. Is that possible ? Has anyone else experienced this ? I'm curious because I've decided to go with a M-50 61, since I don't want to wait around for a second hand ...
