Korg Forums

Hi guys, Back in 2012 I owned a Korg M50, and currently own a Roland FA06 and although I love the sounds, I miss the dual arpeggiators of my previous M50. I am thinking of replacing the FA with a Krome, but I have a few questions 1. I did not like the M50's pianos, are the Krome's samples a big ...

Hmm, so I assume this means dramatically improved piano sounds. That partly addressed some of the M50 shortcomings.
Is there anything missing in the Krome, that is on the M50?

Hi guys, I have been using a Korg M50 since 2012, and I thought it's time to upgrade. I am a complete home hobbyist, and I loved the M50 over these years. I loved the power and customization possible on this synth. The infinite ways (in Combi mode) of splitting the keyboard zones, velocity layers ...

Hi , is it really possible to import a User Drum kit I have created in global to Sequence mode as like the other kits in Program Bank A,B,C,D,E , :( Yes, completely possible, and I have done it many times. The edited drum kit has to be written as a program in bank-E though. Choose an empty spot or ...

Not sure if this would help you, but... I do remember in the track-edit page in sequence mode, there is an option to edit the velocity range of the notes over selected measures. Maybe you can play around with that to get your intended volume change?

Excellent idea. From the looks of it, it should work on M50 as well! I'll try this over the weekend.

Arps can be edited in Global Mode->P6: Arpeggio Pattern. Please check the parameter guide, or search this forum, in case you dont know how to create/edit arpeggios.

This should be easy enough in the "track edit" page. Just insert 4 measures on track-5, which would push the MIDI data currently on measure-1 to measure-5. Alternatively, cut-paste measure-1 to measure-5.

I think the "Aaj ki raat" bassline is close to "U0202 Bs-Father of Disco". You could audition this preset arp, and then edit the pattern according to your needs.

I think in sequence mode, there is a "Copy from Combi/Program" option in the menu which comes up when you press the triangle on the top right of the touch-screen. You could also try the record shortcut - Enter + Rec/Write key when in the particular Combi.

One way to do instantaneous changes is to highlight the lead timbre in your Combi, and then use the Bank buttons to change the program to something else. But, for this to be effective, you need to arrange your banks in the way that you want your sounds (e.g. A0X Piano, B0X Guitar, C0X Pad etc.)

And, finally, sorry, have nor time neither will to continue developing Aldan, because I'm playing Roland FA-06 already.

Interesting... how do you find it, compared to M50? The "Studio sets" at least seemed to be just like the Combi mode, as far as I could tell.

The "default" piano sound in A00 is not that great. You will find better piano programs lower down in Bank-A (explore programs around A022 ~ 023). Also one of the GM banks has a good Acoustic Piano patch. Play around with the effects too - for some cases I felt changing the Reverb preset effect from ...

@Yatrix: Is Aldan III compatible with Windows 8.1 (64 bit). I tried installing it, and am getting the System Error message. I also followed your instructions on Microsoft "SETUPPAD.exe" installation Tech Note 1: "System Error &H007007E (-2147024770). The specified module could not be found." In case ...

Did you check the Timbre/Param setup (Combi) mode, and turn the Arp timbres to INT (Internal) instead of BTH (Both)?
