M50 Module?

Post by McHale »

Am I the only one wishing Korg were to make an M50 module? I'm debating picking up a 61 key on the used market and making a module out of it. I know they make an M3 tabletop module, but the M50 would be cheaper and more geared towards live use.

I'm kind of excited about this possible project...

First an internal power supply, and now a home-made M50 module! I've gotta hand it to you, McHale, you've got balls of steel! I'm still too scared to clean the key contacts on my old Rolands...

The sad thing is, these are just the ones I put online. If I posted everything, Korg would probably not even allow me to register my gear anymore! I think they're still not happy about my M3 mod. :)

Oh yah, I totally agree. I think Jerry/Korg just consider me a bad influence. ;)
