Back in the 90′s, one of the few Korg synthesizers that Kid Nepro missed programming sounds for was the Korg Z1. Well the kid was a bit late, but he has recently picked up an old Z1 and have finally gotten around to making a sound library for this cool Korg synth. Now available are two new sound collections. Each containing 128 new programs.
Volume 1 – Classic Synths ($35. USD) contains 128 new programs. A mixed bag of sounds that ranges from classic analog synth textures to soundtrack and film special effects with a bunch of funky rhythmic textures thrown in. Classic Synths has a great deal of rhythmic “grooves” and “riffs”. These patterns can be the starting point that you can use to create your next track. We split the rhythmic sounds and sustained sounds in half. There are 64 rhythmic textures and then 64 sustained sounds.
Volume 2 – Physical Modeling Mix ($35. USD) also includes 128 programs. For most patches the arpeggiator was turned off and we concentrated on sustained sounds. There are several physical model instruments such as Reeds (clarinet, flute, sax), Organs (rock, gospel, jazz), Electric Pianos (Wurli’s and Rhodes), Acoustic Guitars (plucked) and Strings (bowed and plucked). There are also several unique synth textures and classic analog and digital synth models. A mix of synth leads, basses, pads, keys and brass. You will also find a few rhythmic patterns and special effects.
Both volumes are available in sysex or midi file formats and delivered via our free download delivery.

I wanted to do something different for this video so I decided since the theme of my new M3 sound collection was “Vintage Synths” that I would pay tribute to some of my favorite synthesizer players.
One thing that I had forgotten and was made obvious while assembling the video footage, is how difficult is used to be for synth players back in the 70′s and 80′s to keep their keyboards in tune during a live performance. The early analog synths while sounding great did have their problems getting through a gig. You never knew what was going to happen when you turned them on!
While the synths that they were using back then were primitive compared to the modern keyboards of today, the music certainly was not. Some of the greatest music ever made was created during those years. It’s fantastic that YouTube has been able to document it all so that anyone who is interested can see it all with just a few clicks of a mouse!
I’m sure I left out many great ones, but It would take an hour long video to list them all. Here they are – in order of appearance…..

One of the great things about the Korg M3 is that there are many ways that you can use it. The eight pads on the front panel make it easy to set up and use as a drum machine. With the addition of the drum track, sampling features and hundreds KARMA Generated Effects – that can be used for creating drum beats, you can easily turn the M3 into one of the coolest drum machines around.
Our M3 Hit Factory sound collection includes five new drum kits that we created using new samples. The “Classic Beatbox” Drum Kit For Korg M3 contains sounds from vintage 80′s drum machines and kits including the Roland TR808, TR909, CR78, Linn Drum and Simmons Drum Kit.
Beats on the track are from the combi titled “Retro Beatboxes”. No overdubbing or multi tracking was done. Everything was played live into my DAW. Interesting Note: I was also filming everything with my right hand while playing the pads, switches and sliders with my left. Now try that sometime!
