Wonderful Korg, Claudio, I love how you can extract incredible sounds from these monsters. But there is an iconic synth from the 80's that I haven't seen you play yet and it would be amazing, the EMU Emulator II, Ferry Bueller's Day Off movie. It's very old, but very iconic.

A truely universal synthesizer workstation. Eventhough it was famous for it’s use in house and dance music, it also found it’s way to other genres like gothic darkwave music. There is even a version of Gary Numan’s Down in the park (a live version form the late 90’s) where the famous M1 piano sound is used. It’s instantly reconizable when you hear it. Some game music composers have also used the M1, I reconize the Universe sound in the intro of the Darkman videogame on the amiga and other sounds in Shadow Of The Beast. The Panflute sound reminds me a lot of Donkey Kong Country on the SNES. The M1’s legacy is everywhere and I quite enjoy using the M1 iPad app for it’s sounds. This synth made a huge impact on so many genres of music that it deserves the name “Universal Synth”.😇

@jaggass 6 лет назад

People tended to use the TR-909 on 90's house, dance and pop songs because of it sounds and it fitted in so well. That's not to say that the Korg M1 drums sounds were bad though. The TR-808 sounds as unrealistic as it gets but its unique.

@michaelskywalker3089 3 года назад

This keyboard seemed to encapsulate all of the functionality and tone quality we take for granted in the amateur level keyboards that Yamaha and Casio make today. Just to have a realistic piano sound was a marvel back then without spending thousands of dollars on a Jupiter or Juno. The interface, effects and synthesizer functions did not seem to be as integrated as well as they potentially could have been; as if they needed to invent a new type of computer and software language to properly enable ease of function. Nevertheless the available sounds were amazing. I was a teenager when this instrument came out, I played on some of my friends instruments but never owned one and later I briefly owned the 01 WD but never used it much being in College at the time. One day if I ever get a decent studio space I will get one as well as the Karma; not to shine up and admire but to use in composition and recordings.

@jaibhimadevi5805 4 года назад

I had one and loved it until an airline butchered it. I always loved the M1's joystick vs. separate pitch/mod wheels- for whatever reason, Korg never went exactly back to that design, I thought the newer plastic-covered oval version felt cheaper. My favorite stock preset was probably 42, Overture. I also loved pitch-bendable drums!

@looneyburgmusic 3 года назад

"Korg never went exactly back to that design" - That would be because the M1 JS design actually was horrible, and broke far more often than it should have. The current JS design, (Kronos, Krome), is much better.

I swear the song he's playing with the Piano16 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-qoiPkHyEMGI.html is some soundtrack from Final Fantasy, some overworld theme.

I heard that ooh-aah preset and didn't recognize it's Queen at first. My first thought was about Depeche Mode, I'm sure they used plenty of this synth

You are the prize winner! I could recognize most of the tunes but could not give a proper name and artist to most.

Perhaps Korg is one of those brands who sold gears that were a perfect value for money !! Im happy they still continue to do the same !!

I've had the 19'' rack module with half a dozen memory cards for about 20 years. It's served me well for a couple of albums. Never toured with it, it lives and stays in my studio. Thinking of downsizing and moving it on. £450-500 would probably take it. It's spotless.
