KORG M3R Factory Demo Songs 1989
Вставка

- The first 4 tracks are the factory demos from the Korg M3R. The other tracks are Korg demos from various M3R card sets (every card set comes with at least 1 demo song). You hear many nice songs which bring you back memories from the early nineties...
Recorded in high definition audio.
Btw, don't pay attention to the clown below, he stole parts of the original 1989 Korg M3R demo and claims the copyright for himself (1991), I can't do anything about it.
wow awesome. was my first workstation back in .... 1995 ?, got the trinity pro in 97 then........ then the M3, then the triton extreme, and now the kronos 2 :) forever KORG
Typical Korg 80s quality, very nice! I'm a big fan of the Korg Workstations of the 80s and 90s! The M3R lacks OSCs (thinner sound), small display, difficult to program etc. I always preferred the Korg Mirex! (M1R ex) :) Yep I remember the demo song, very nice, thanks for presenting it here!
M1Rex is the rack mount version of the Korg T Series.
@@madness8556 Right!
Funny i was pouring water as the water song came on... Decades later... Some1 was right on time!
the 4:10 song is amazing!!
Indeed!
The name of that first demo song is called Lady Amazon. You can see a number of the names here in this video: ua-cam.com/video/wW093GGS7po/v-deo.html
I've got one. Still like that M3 / M1 early 90s vibe.
Such great presence and dynamic, still today.....my Korg X5Dr has better realistic sounds, due its bigger Ram, but also my TWO M3r can't be beaten by it in warmth and punch!
it can be beaten by the Korg M1 :-) The M3R is actually a scaled down M1R with less ROM waves and no sequencer... and smaller display, less buttons

Yes, this is why I got two. Not the same thing, but cheap and lots of flavours as well....😃
lol I was trying to think of X5DR. I have one too. Tiny thing with extraordinary sound. Definitely like it better than M3r
@@jaxonjaxonfied1931
did You try the freeware Hammond bank made more than 20 years ago by Frank Carvalho? A must try for the 64 poliphony notes on the X5Dr.
He compared his presets with the ones on his L100 Hammond, using his ears and an oscilloscope!!
The M3R doesn't have a dual oscillator mode in program mode so it's programs are all single oscillator sounds with full 16 note polyphony.
You can do that on the M1 too, but you don't have to.
@@synthesizerhome2041 spot on. In the M3R (and M1/R and T series, you can have single oscillator programs and then stack them up in combi mode where they can be panned and sent to their own fx busses etc. However you need to do all your synthesis programming at the program level. Roland and Yamaha allowed up to 4 oscillators per patch or voice at the time but the polyphony was also vastly reduced.
Like !
Thanks for the demos, Do you know the name of the song that stars at 2:35? I want the midi file but I don't know the name of the song.
this song was written for the M3R, there is no original version I think. So I don't believe there is a midi file of it.
Lance's Bop
The song that starts 4:11, could you point med to what card that was on?
MSC-2S set - Synth 1
some of the sounds are a lot like the soundtrack for ecco the dolphin on sega CD. i wonder if the composer used a M3r or M1
i think he had an M1 and a D-550
For some reason I've always associated the Korg M1, M3r etc - that generation of Korg synths - with the Nintendo SNES. I think because those sounds were all over the soundtrack to Donkey Kong Country.
I wish they create a vst for this board
There is one - the Korg M1 vst. The M3R is the kid brother of the M1
@@synthesizerhome2041 They don't have the same set of waveforms though. The extra ROMs of waveforms are for the T-series and some ROM expansions.
@@Magnus_Loov the M3R contains a combination of the M and T series waveforms so all those M3R programs are in the M1 VST.
@@madness8556 Ok. Didn't know that!
But then there still is the questions if the programs and combos from the M3R are there?
And in addition to that, were the digital effects the same in the M3R as in the "big brothers"?
@@Magnus_Loov most of the programs that aren't M1 specific would be T series specific. Also the M3R has the same 33 fx as both the M1 and the T series.
old japan sound...
tired of USA... take me back to donkey kong country...
Factory demos are generally designed by the company to make their own synth products sound as bad as possible 🤣
god the demo songs on the 03r/w are total trash by comparison lol
