Soundsettings and Samples / Factory data (Reubens EP-Rhodes)
Posted: Thu Dec 21, 2023 1:13 pm
Hello,
a large number of settings on the Pa1000 do not come close to achieving the sound quality that the available high-quality factory samples enable.
Apparently often Korg did not use the extensive parameters of the sound editor, mixer and effects for the finished factory sounds (pcg files) or hardly used them to ensure consistently high sound quality.
A good example of this was the set with sixteen EP Rhode sounds created by "Reuben" in August 2019 with factory data, which unfortunately no longer is available from the links provided (http://www.korgforums.com/forum/phpBB2/ viewtopic.php?t=119314).
Please, if anyone could provide me with this set, I would be very grateful.
Unfortunately, Reuben no longer has this set, but instead since December 2022 has Rhodes pianos in his Piano package - the Rhodes also only use the factory data (http://www.korgforums.com/forum/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t =113029).
The reason I'm still looking for the sounds from August 2019 is that by analyzing the sounds created by Ruben, I can learn a lot about how you to create significantly higher quality sounds than the settings supplied by Korg using factory data alone.
If external samples from other manufacturers are primarily imported and saved completely unedited as finished sounds, there is nothing that can be learned from sound packages equipped in this way for sound editing.
Apart from that, such carelessly put together settings don't sound anywhere near as good as the high-quality packages from Reuben, who masterfully understands how to use the existing parameters as the technical requirements allow - and you can learn from that!

I think a copied or recorded sample imported into the pa1000 by no means automatically is a new or good sound - but as soon as the editing parameters offered are applied sensibly, even a relatively musty, lifeless sample - maybe also used from ROM - can be brought to life.
