Korg Forums

I've been trying for that elusive sax sound as well. (since 2009) You're right, the saxophone is very weak on the M50. Not at all like the previous versions of the sax on the M1, Triton & TR. I thought Korg always had the best sax sound. I don't know why they didn't at least keep the old sax samples ...

I too had this problem but reinstalling the operating system didn't fix it. So for anyone out there with a touchscreen calibration problem, here is what I did to fix it. You have to take the M50 apart. If you have patience and a sense of adventure you can do this. If you're not mechanically inclined ...

To xmlguy: I certainly meant no disrespect and I apologize if I came across that way (which I obviously did). that's why i said I meant no offense and i appreciated all the input I was getting in my earlier post. But you are absolutely correct, i am bitching, but bitching is not the only reason i'm ...

This is just what I'm talking about. Everyone is quick to make excuses for the bad sounding pianos of the M50. I appreciate all of the input I'm getting on this and I certainly mean no offense, but why do i have to explain my pa? It's the same pa that sounds just wonderful when using my KORG TR61. I ...

Thanks to all of you for the input. Sorry i haven't been on for a while....gigged a lot in December. I'm sitting here with both my TR 61 and the M50 side by side. Comparing sounds through the same system. All things being equal except the two keyboards, the TR just sounds better on EVERYTHING. there ...

I think the M50 pianos are weak. they don't seem to cut through the mix as does my TR. Admittedly, I had the same problem with the Tr61 when i first bought it but was able to very quickly modify the stock sounds to something I liked. before I bought the M50 I knew I didn't like the pianos from demo ...

Like a lot of posts I've read here on this forum, i too am dissatisfied with the pianos in the Korg M50. I've had the keyboard for a year and have tweaked and tweaked (I've been tweaking Korg keyboards since the DW6000, so I'm pretty familiar with it, though I don't have hours to experiment. Also, I ...

i haven't been on the forum for a while. any chance someone can share a link where i can get this piano patch. still looking for a good piano. i tweaked a few myself but still am dissatisfied compared to what i have in my tr61. thanks in advance.

Thanks for the input. i hope that works for me too. i'm certainly not biased about it and i can see how learning the product better could certainly help. I didn't said all that i did in my last post to make it seem like i've given up on it. I work with it everyday. i certainly don't want to see the ...

I'm not familiar with the PA50 Sax but the M50 sax is considerably different from past KORG workstation keyboards such as the M1, TR and everything in between. As far as i can tell they have either done away with or modified the traditional M1 sax multisample. I use the sax alot and have been very ...

OK Thanks

I agree completely with johnnypro. I have had the day off today and have been working with both the M50 and TR side by side making sound comparisons, tweaking, eq-ing, everything that I know how to do after working with korg keyboards for over 25 years. In every case of buying a new keyboard i have ...

I may be your lone sympathizer. I am also more partial to the tr sounds than the m50. But the touch screen is a big plus especially when using it with the user category. I can have 16 commonly used sounds at my fingertips. I use both user category 16 and 17 with my own sound setups. That is a ...
