The plug-in uses an effect algorithm derived from the high-quality TRITON family of synthesizers. MDE-X MDE-X is equipped with 19 different effect programs carefully selected from KORG digital effects, including Compressor, Limiter, Overdrive, Equalizer (EQ), Talking Modulator, Flanger, Phaser, Chorus, Delay, and Reverb. In addition to a total of over 1,500 built-in preset sounds, an enormous amount of added PCM waveforms and wave sequences allows for even more variegated sound production. 7 types of PCM and program cards are equipped. The software provides extensive preset programs and waveforms found on all of the series’ models: WAVESTATION, WAVESTATION EX, WAVESTATION A/D, and WAVESTATION SR. In addition to these and other unique revolutionary features, the sound section has equipped all of WAVESTATION’s PCM, and the parameters of the delicate parts have been fully reproduced in the software by analyzing the circuit map of the original design.
The user could operate a joystick to "mix" or "morph" between four oscillators, or create a wave sequence by placing waveforms in a specific order to create rhythmic or melodic sequence patterns. WAVESTATION The WAVESTATION synthesizer appeared in 1990 with its new "advanced vector synthesis system" which produced a new sound by combining and shifting between multiple complex waveforms. It is equipped with extensive sounds, including 33,000 preset sounds and 34 cards.
It provides all of the PCM, Program, and Combination data found in the original M1 and the M1EX internal PCM expansion, plus the PCM data and Program/Combination data from all nineteen optional ROM cards.What’s more, in addition to all 19 types of the PCM ROM cards for the M1, the sound of the M1EX which was released as an expansion of the M1’s built-in PCM, as well as the sounds of the T-series, which advanced the M1. Numerous sounds available only from the M1, most notable the famous “M1 Piano” sound, were taken up by musicians and producers around the world, and are still in use today.The software features filter resonance, VDA modulation, and master effects that have been powered up to a total of 18 systems. As a pioneer of PCM tone generation, it was notable not just for the reality of its sound, but also for the distinctive resonance and tonal character that demonstrated the high level of Korg's voicing technology. And what could be better than taking those sounds we never tire of and adding new dimensions to them? That's exactly what you get with the Legacy Collection - Digital Edition (Please note the plugins included in this bundle cannot be upgraded to V2) M1The first workstation synthesizer, released in 1988, which defined the sound of the late ’80s and early ’90s: M1.Along with its innovative "workstation" concept, the M1's "AI" (Advanced Integrated) synthesis system used PCM waveforms and digital effects to deliver fully complete program and combination sounds.
Synthesizer hardware may go out of date, but their sounds never do - especially when it comes to Korg's exceptional lineage of synthesizer royalty. Korg Legacy Collection - Digital EditionThe Korg Legacy Collection - Digital Edition suite of virtual synthesizers includes a powerful version of the legendary M1 synthesizer, an updated version of the WAVESTATION adding the 6 PCM/Data option cards, and an updated version of the MDE-X plug-in effects.
