Easy questions for Korg M3.

Post by Ryumexicano »

Hi guys. Thanks in advance. I have two questions.

1. How do you increase the volume or certain patch. I have a piano with the wah effect that is very low in volume but I don't know how to increase it. Any tips?

2. How do I assign the sliders in the front? My friend brags he can assign sounds to those, like if he goes down he gets sax, sides the things up and gets another. Where do you assign those?

3. Is there any Salsa backing tracks that this keyboard reads? It won't read MIDI tracks. It sounds like crap.


Thank you so much.

1. One way to increase the volume is to use a compressor or limiter effect. Many patches might already have one set up as a TFX.

2. I don't know of a way to do it with one slider but in mixer mode you could do it with 2 of them. Just reduce the level of one sound while raising the level of the other.

3. Don't know.

1. Normally I only use Combi mode. In that mode you can change the volume from each timbre separately (also relative/keeping balance).

Thank you guys for your input.

To increase volume you go to OSC option, when you press the page button (menu button). There you can increase the volume if it's not all the way to 127. The other way is to add the compressor as suggested. I think those are the only ways to do that. I was successful on the page menu.

Thanks for the input.
