Korg M3 - 73 XP

The NEW M3 XPanded offers a staggering 640 Mbytes of PCM, delivering a huge number of sound variations. Powerful enhancements to the sequencer and interface make the M3 the go-to instrument for your music making.

The M3 heralds the third generation of Korg Workstations. The M1 started it all, first appearing in 1988 to bring the world a new concept called the music workstation. It went on to become the best selling workstation in history, and was further expanded and enhanced through the T and O1/W series. Trinity defined a new level of innovations including touch screen technology and configurable effects, and was the forbearer of the successful TRITON range of products.

The M3 features a number of innovations distilled from the flagship OASYS including the new EDS (Enhanced Definition Synthesis) sound generator derived from the HD-1 engine design, the advanced second-generation KARMA functionality, and the multi-purpose control surface. Adding innovations such as the new concept of virtualized hardware that allows an even closer integration with DAW systems, Drum Tracks which provide a instant groove to play along with, and the new "Korg Komponent System" concept that facilitates more flexible system construction, the M3 music workstation/sampler opens a new and exciting page in music making - it's the workstation that rightfully deserves to wear the M that started it all.

The M3 features a newly developed EDS sound generating system based on a new chip design that was developed in parallel with the HD-1 engine found in the flagship OASYS. It takes full advantage of the M3's 256 Mbytes of PCM source material which is a veritable best of from the OASYS.

Using Korg's advanced voicing technology, the 1,028 multisamples, 1,606 drum samples, four-level velocity switching/crossfading/layering, and stereo sampling allow for an enormous range of high-quality, detailed, and expressive sounds.

Staff Review

The Korg M3 Workstation is probably the leading synthesiser on the market today. The sequencer is a 16 track, easy to use audio and midi recorder. The touch screen makes working all aspects of the machine very straight forward. The keyboard has an amazing ability to control both it's on board sounds and external sound modules in both a live and studio environment.

The Karma feature puts a crazy level of creativity in the users hands and allows the musician to create a unique sound by the touch of a fader.

Sound is simply amazing! Nothing needs to be said... every sound is top class.

The Korg M3 was the lead synth/workstation for the Michael Jackson "This is it" gig in London. The M3 was the sound source and controller of choice for the Music Director.

The perfect balance between a synth and workstation. Powerful EDS sound generator technology from the OASYS, KARMA technology and funky drummer. Optional expansion boards and 76 note keyboard.
