![]() ![]() ![]() The M1 is twenty years old now, and has a basic 16 channel midi implementation only, as well as pitch bend and modulation.It does have four outputs which isn't bad for an old synth and a card slot for extra sounds. I suggest upgrading to the most recent korg board because it puts this one to shame. Great board, sequencing isn’t anyting spectacular just the basics and you probably wont like it too much like most people. Korg m 1 setup 1990s plus#Plus the Korg M3 isnt too expensive anyways, but if you have the M1 already keep it, or if some one is offering you a great deal on it I would get it because it’s a classic board. Mine as well save up the money and just get the Korg M3 because it has better sounds that are up to date and it’s a monster all around from the sounds to the parameters and editing options. Today I wouldn’t pay more than 250 for it used. Overall a great board, but its very outdated. Most all musicians at a higher level have messed with the M1 to some extent and can probably tell you when they hear a sound off the top of their head if its from the m1 or not. But if you used this board today, im sorry to say your sounds will be out dated. Then being very old is probably what will blow you away, that the synths sounded this good back in the day. At first glance with this board you will be blown away by some of the synths and piano’s, but keep in mind that these are very old. Sounds pretty good, Korg always keeps good solid soundsets when they come out with a board or module. ![]() Great board, sequencing isn’t anything spectacular just the basics and you probably wont like it too much like most people. You don’t have expansions too much on other boards such as this one. The M1 has great control with the pitch bend and modulations not to mention card slots and expansions. The Korg M1 is a board that has been used all over the world and still is used today even though it’s the old model of the M versions from Korg. But you will still pull it out from time to time and have a heck of a time. Buy one used and you will love it and use it a lot then you will probably put it on ice for a while and not use it because you will run out of sounds or get board with the old school type of presets. Seems like they just didn’t have the on board technology when they created this board to do what you can do with the next versions of it. With the M1 you really don’t have as much control over you sounds as you do on the M2 or M3. So the Korg M’s will be a brand of boards that I will always use and purchase. Korg m 1 setup 1990s series#The good thing is if you have used all of the M line series you can really see how the keep progressing with the boards. Sounds are great, not as good as the sounds on the M2 or M3 but still good. But now you can find them on eBay for pretty cheap. But this is not a cheap keyboard by any means, actually when it first came out it was consider a very high class board and most people couldn’t afford it. Its not very good, reminds me of a sequencer that would have come on a cheap keyboard back in the 90’s. A lot of people don’t like the sequencing on this board at all. Its very easy to use and navigate on this board, but I was having some issues with the sequencing on this board. Most of them where used in music 10 plus years ago but I still love the way they sound. I really don’t pull it out much but when I do get this board out and plug it up and get right to work with these old school type of sounds. ![]() It has very good on board sounds and some of them I still use to this day. The Korg M1 is a digital synth that has been around for a long time. ![]()
