Korg Forums

Hi y'all. I've created a pack of over 100 presets for the MicroKORG, with a focus on classic sounds -- tons of vintage analog synth vibes, some as well as various 60s keyboards, and some early digital synth sounds as well.

Synths -- Leads, pads, basses, drums ... a couple aggressive Minimoog basses, a couple bright Junos, a Giorgio Moroder-style Jupiter arpeggio, Polymoog Vox Humana, ... also a handful of noisey, detuney patches ... a handful of patches emulating classic songs ... some polysynth brass
Pianos -- Wurlie, DX7-style glassy Rhodes, another more smooth jazzy mellow 80s digital Rhodes, analog piano, casio piano
Organs -- Farfisa, various Hammond+Leslie, generic transistor organ
Strings -- a couple Jarre-style phased string machines, a couple strings
Choirs -- Mellotron Boys Choir, a couple breathy Fairlight-y choirs
Bells -- various across the spectrum ranging from new-wave-y analog to full on digital
SFX -- Various oldschool modular-style sound effects

Hi, I just wanted to add that I'm taking requests.

So if there's some sound you're dying to have on your MicroKORG, post your request and I'll give it my best shot. If the result is passable I'll add it to the pack.

Hey, just wanted to show some appreciation for this excellent resource.

Thanks dude

Nice stuff! There are several sounds here I want. I'm definitely going to buy this package when I have a few spare bucks.

Request: The Tommy Mars signature French horn sound (as heard in Zappa's band 1977-1982). Here's an example. (Try not to get too distracted by Steve Vai.)

In a Silent Way -- Cool stuff. I have a horn that's not exactly the same. He's got his hand on the filter knob the whole time, controlling the amount of bite. I'll see if I can get the same effect. I'll work on it and let you know if I get it.

mysteryannis -- I've ported some of the best patches over to the XL. It's here: https://www.thoracius.com/microkorg-xl-patches/
