Korg X2/X3 Excellent B3 & analog strings

Post by oliver1963 »

With all the recent time on my hands waiting for the pandemic to subside I got reacquainted with my old Korg X3. I'm astonished how good this board really is. After playing around and tweaking for the last 2 months, I've come to realize that seems to have better, more fatter/analogy like sounds than many of the newer Korgs. I've owned and sold the X5, N364, M50, Kross, X50, Triton etc.....and yet having more fun with my X3. I'm into good, solid Hammond B3 organ sounds and have really been able to expand on this as well as strings, brass and e. pianos....which this thing does really well.
Here's my quick youtube of some of the new sounds I've tweaked

Just saying...if you have one or find one cheap.....its worth it. :)

N364 is just the same as the X3 only with 2 banks more ... just saying. But indeed, these boards have excellent strings (Nightwish !), organs and ambient pads. Love my N364.

I bought an X3 when it first came out then sold it about 6 years later and have been kicking myself in the head ever since.
I just got a X3R and it is like waiting for Christmas all over again.. Can't wait
