I have M1 vsti, i only got it for "pad piano", "universe", "bambu trem", and "koto trem", and other great sounds.

maybe it's not the synth engines that matter ( i don't know much about them anyways). this is what i can tell:
about Access vs. HI:
trinity's (in my case: tr-rack) "[90's piano]" leaves triton's "90's piano" in the dust.

Man, I would PREORDER a new version of Trinity, that would be the biggest selling board of all time...the ony remade keyboard that could top that is if EMU/Ensoniq released a new version of the ASR-10 with 1 gig sampling, sounds included..man, if only...

I upgraded the M50 OS effortlessly and installed Vintage Keys. Not what I personally was looking for but the lessons and potential of these new sounds are excelent and deep and humbling. Each sound needs time spent using/learning to comment on with any authority. With more time comparing the M50 to the Triton I can say I am keeping it basically because it can sample. If M50 sampled I would sell it to pay the difference. It's sound quality to the M50 lags far behind in smoothness and never mixed with my M1s well to my ear. I may be the last guy here still using an M1 and only because I have 2 and a spare 3rd to get the polyphony needed just to play it and that gives me qasi poly after touch using a good controller split. The difference between the Triton and M50 is a very big improvement and in my mind this is the first Korg synth (OASYS excluded here) to truly replace the M1 and the Wavestation's deep sound while retaining qualities of the Trinity that I really liked and with a 2nd listen might prefer over the Triton from memory playing it. I am keeping WS A/D because of its excellent analog inputs, but it will collect some dust with the M50 out weighing it now. The more I use it, the more I like the way the M50 sounds, and can control sound. The next Flagship board from Korg is gona rip IMO but please Korg give us back poly aftertouch on it.

I had to turn on my Triton for this one. I wish it were an Extreme, the valve really made a nice improvement on some of it's voices AND they needed it IMO.

These are Synths and the M50 vs M88 thread I posted in buying the M50 shows they have the ability to be tweaked to how you like the sound with many people in agreement on the basics.

But out of the box with factory set presets I cannot say the Triton sounds as sweet as the M50, not by a mile. It’s like all wheel drive to rear wheel drive. The Triton sounds great of course but "hard" to my ear compared to the M50....and out of the box...well lets say the M88 at GC in Clacksvile doesn't 't sound as good as it used to after I reset it to see what was wrong with the M50 61 that did not sound as good as the M50 88 with everyone in the store agreeing making it seem the M50 a lesser sounding or broken synth due to cheaper, or in my fearful mind at the time comparing the two, graded parts ....very, very time consuming to do BTW but some DACs from same run do sound better and fetch a higher price in high-end audio....but low end sound quality is catching up to high end with technology improvements and the M50 is a good example of that flow direction not that's it low end if it sounds better than the M1....not be sarcastic;-)

The M50 takes deeper independent breaths and is smoother sounding.....catching up with the space cowboys over at the OASYS gathering licking their chops right now with a lot of time to explore after Korg gifted them with some new bricks to build with.

McHale,

FYI: The M3 most certainly DOES have an arp. built in. Basically the same as the M50, but my understanding, a little harder to learn, but MUCH faster to set-up after you understand it.

I think what he meant was the Karma arp is NOT as "Simple" (techically speaking) as the M50..

I've never played with the ARP in the M3, so I can't say on that.

But I assure you, Stephen at Karma has got it going on,,, if he changed something, it's for GOOD reason...

Could someone confirm I'm correct on this statement!

Thanks!

Mike
