Totally loving the Korg T3 in 2024. The ultimate Korg synth!

This is the golden days of Korg R&D - 1989-1990-1991 - The T series is such an extremely nice experience both for playing and programming. The sound is lush on these and yes it has a completely different feel compared to the plugin. The plugin interface doesn't match these sounds and this programming environment. The sequencer is extremely powerful and direct. Easy to use. It's in retrospect easy to see why the M and T series sold in truckloads. Compared to the overly complex Trinity and Triton this is much more direct and hands on. And the sound quality is so dreamy. Like a record. None of that digital harshness, this is more like a Synclavier for the streets. I love it completely without reservations.

Hi,
My T3 just came back to life today... replaced internal battery and all the good stuf is gone. I've managed to find some sysex but it's far from what this thing is capable. Do you have any good sxsex that you are willing to share?

I managed to locate the original soundbank so I can put up that on the site as a free download. I will work out a freebies & general help page. Personally now building on a bank of my own which will take a longer while :-) My site though is bitleysounds.com and T series content will be up in no more than 15 days from today but might be up in 15 hours too - just can not have any pressure right now.

By the way don't you have any floppy disks for it? If it is an EX it has RAM to recieve sample dumps too.
