Korg Forums

master logic, What curvebender said --- FM is capable of generating much more than bells and e. pianos. It's just that not many people created these kinds of sounds because of the difficulty in doing so ----- particularly on a one-parameter-adjustment-at-a-time synth like the DX-7 which didn't have ...

I could give you a real answer... About the Michael Jackson-related FM sounds! :D Yes, they were Synclavier. What made Synclav FM unique were: • 8-bit waveform resolution • the carrier was an additive synth oscillator, meaning that you could dial in harmonics above the fundamental and modulate that w ...

Peter, Ah, the brass model in the Prophecy... I didn't program any of the brass sounds. For some reason I concentrated on the other models when I was making patches for the factory bank. But there was something very cool about the stock Trumpet patch, in that the modwheel (or was it pitch wheel ...

I wanted to remind that Korg had FM in one of their synths already, but probably - speculation ! - were not allowed to use the same name. Indeed the DS-8 (and the 707) were FM synths. I did a lot of programming for those, though I don't remember if the oscillators were referred to as "operators" or ...

Experience with things like what, ski... like maybe playing an OASYS for instance? Are you saying I have never played / do not occasionally still play / probably never will again play an OASYS? Funny, I don't recall ever having said those things; but still, you take up a defensive position on the ...

I am still ordering Logic 8 though, and I'll post some L8 samples up soon (including lots of acoustic piano for Ski :wink: ), and we can compare it to the Oasys. Don't bother :wink: as I have better things to do with my time :wink: than get into a pissing contest :wink: about which piano is better ...

Silverdragon's advice is good, but I'm going to make some other suggestions... First of all, I generally don't like when the LH and RH of a piano recording are hard-panned. Sounds totally unnatural from both an audience and performer's perspective. But in a recording, stereo mic'ing gives the ...

Hey, I noticed you are a sound designer for Korg... Your powers of observation are good, Lars, though it would seem that mine aren't on par. See, it was very difficult... no... it was impossible to find any mention of you on the web, IMDB, etc. Looks like only the truly successful people can remain ...

Hate to add any more wood to the fire... I'm looking into my crystal ball right now and I can see... yesssss... I can see that you're FILLED with regret... And... you will find that a lot of the sounds are actually better sounding than the stuff in the $8000 Oasys. This [ahem] "statement" assumes ...

I just want to have a thought provoking discussion about instruments that can be used to make music.

For describing your activity in this music-related forum, you've come up with quite a convenient little euphemism for "troll".

Kevin,

I'd like to chime in and say that I really admire the amount of thought that went into your very detailed and intelligent response to this thread.

=sKi=

Yawn...

Limericky, Save it. The disparaging things you write about the Oasys may indeed be your opinions; but when you voice them for 2.5 years whist having no association with the instrument other than as a browser in a music store, that makes you a troll in the Oasys forum. IMO the value, if not the ...

Syn,

Thanks for the explanation. See, I didn't watch the whole video. When I got to the part where he interrupted those two turtles copulating I stopped. Tortoise interruptus is something I just can't bear to watch...

Ricky Ricordo. The ouija board you have is not a toy! It really is a communicating device to demonic spirits. You can release the evil spirits out (no pun intended) to your home and your family. You shouldn't keep it in your house. Don't play the game, throw it away and don't burn it. Do the ...
