A number 10 by the looks! 8O

I'm first in line for some nice samples. :D

So, how much did you grab it for? I foresee the next thing you will be buying will be some outboard FX - a compressor to tame the beast may even be in order.

Nice 303. I'm jealous!

EDIT; Hold on! That's a 20!!!!! Now I'm really fucken jealous!!

H?h?. It's acctually the "Legacy-MS20". I picked it up for 1995:- SEK (which is; ?213,50/$275,93/29.109Yen)

I bought it new from the store with all the software (duh!). I've tried legacy before but this acctually makes it alot more fun.

Hehehe, you tricky basatrd! With nothing near it, it's hard to judge the size. I thought it looked very clean though.

Not so jealous anymore.... :wink:

Aye.

Hoho. Well i didn't bought it to make anyone jealous. More for my own pleasure. And besides I'd love to have a real MS20, but i won't pay 8000-9000:- SEK for one.

For 1 second I thought that it might be the real thing but after recognizing the size of the keyboard it was clear what it was. For a real MS20 the surface is in too good condition too (Damn those bastards who don't take care of their synths!). :wink:

Aye. The keys isn't the best - but it's better than nothing i guess. I bet that "kids" that buy these will get intrested in the real thing instead.

I'd say that the wavestation sounds really "90ies hits". Its fun to play around but i haven't really found any good sounds to use and i won't be programing any sounds to it yet.

MS20 sounds good aswell as the polysix, nothing like the original thou. I've just played around with it so far.

My favourite is the Wavestation for sure. Drench it in distortion and delay, and away you go!

The 20 can get some nice DnB style sounds I rekon, but nothing like the original, like you say 303. :cry: It would be much more fun being able to patch it with that controller 303. It can get really crazy.

The Polysix is the only one I didn't get much of a chance to play with. Also haven't seen a real one anywhere that I could put my hands on either.

So when are we gunna hear a new track from you 303? You are building up an arsenal now! :D

Aye, for sure. However I see the controller more of being an toy until i'd could afford a real one (which i probably wont).

The Polysix is the only one I didn't get much of a chance to play with. Also haven't seen a real one anywhere that I could put my hands on either.

It sure sounds good, but still not like the original but better than say Subtractor from Reason. But however with the legacy-cell it gets more fun. Combining an ms20 and the polysix is really fun it can make really wild sounds acctually and it sounds good.

So when are we gunna hear a new track from you 303? You are building up an arsenal now!

I didn't acctually buy legacy to write music, more as an toy that i mentioned earlier. I was after an small midicontroller with as much knobs as possible. This one was the cheapest (strange enough) and i get that "analogue feel" with the interface. I'll see if i'll do some music later on thou. I can't say never

There's one of those for sale at my local store for ?300. It's got patch cords aswell I think.

Thats a good price you got on that mate. I enjoyed the legacy cell when I downloaded the demo.

They are on sale in Sweden. Almost every music store only takes 1995:- SEK for it. Strange but i can't really complain

hey 303, please make some mp3(wavestation). The keys are probably bad, but it is much better than microkorg keys :lol: How is the patching going on?

Sure thing. I'll post them later on then.

Nope. Same keys. hoho

How is the patching going on?

It's going alright acctually. I am almost done with my "first" sound - an string that evolves into a bassarpeggio. I bet DS would love that sound - it sounds 80ies, and it's probably going to used in a song that i am planing (well if i ever do that song)

CONTENTS:

- M1 software synthesizer

The sound engine of the M1 ? the forerunner of all music
workstations and PCM synths ? is now available as an eight-part
multi-timbral virtual instrument, and has been brought up to date with
many new features. Topping that list includes a powerful resonant
filter and dual Insert effects.

In addition to the PCM and Program/Combination data of the
M1/M1EX, all of the data from the 19 optional PCM/Program cards
is included, along with new drum samples and entirely new Programs -
providing more than 2,700 preset sounds!

[WAVESTATION v1.5]
The world-acclaimed WAVESTATION software synthesizer, part of
the original KORG Legacy Collection, now advances to Version
1.5, adding all six of the highly-acclaimed optional cards (more than
250 Performances, 250 Patches, 250 PCM waveforms and 150
Wave Sequences).

[MDE-X v1.2]
With the arrival of Version 1.2, the MDE-X multi-effect plug-in is
now RTAS compatible.

All three elements of the KORG Legacy Collection ? DIGITAL
EDITION support RTAS, VST and Audio Units plug-in formats, and are
ready to work in today?s top audio environments.

And maybe a page for HC to translate for us non-japanese people.

but why on earth did they acctually remake the M1? I just don't get it.
