Thanks, I always wanted to change the default sound but never took the time to program it. I'll re-listen multiple time to make use of all the programming tips!
Thank you for posting all these videos! I just got my M50 from my GF and was really confused by it's complicated settings/functions.(Previously i was using a PS60) Now, thanks to ur videos i know exactly what to do. =)
@saarnoldbhm Instead of using the "Copy From Program" command, use the drop-down menu and select "Write Combination." Then, you can specify a new location to save the sound.
@saarnoldbhm Glad you're digging your M-50. Try going to GLOBAL mode, then touch the System Preferences tab, and make sure that in the Memory Protect section, "Combination" is unchecked. If not, uncheck it, and save the settings using the REC/WRITE button.
There is a fourth way also... the Combi-next-to-another-method :) Just save your combis like you would play them in a song one after another and use switch pedal to program up (or combi up) through all the combis... this means that you'll have to save many same combis many times and do lot of preprogramming.
Thank you so much for making theese videos, they are great. I have one question though: How do you setup more sounds to swich between within the same track during live performance? E.g. when I in some songs use Piano for the Verse, Violins for the Bridge and Brass for the Chorus? How do I setup this to access the different sounds quick and easy within the same track?
@Cyberman86 Generally, on piano sounds, switch #1 will drop you down one octave. You can also go to the Tone Adjust tab, touch "Trsp" on/off button, and adjust the value below.
yes thank you for the video. thinking of buying one but scared to use the interface.looks very intimdating but thanks to your vids will prob get one now
Great job...we need it. Is there a way to create a sequnce ( in the 80's it was called a sequncer) of single notes played throught the song while you play a different stock sound ( lets say strings) on the fly with sequencer? If so can you post a video?
These tutorial are great! How about a tutorial on how to install "Pro Vintage Keys" into the m50. I cannot find any info on how to do this. Thanks, Tammy
That was great. One question, once I get my instrument into a "Song", how do I get multiple instruments in the same song? When I select a second one I can only hear the first. When I mute the first I get no sound, it seems to not care about the second.
=D i learn something new about keyboards everyday. BTW does the m50 have great pre set piano and synth sounds? I havent got the chance to go to guitar center lately.
How can I copy a sound from the Combi mode Bank A over to my list on Bank D. It doesn't seem to work the same way. Oh, and thanks for these videos. I just got my M50 and am loving it. Up till now my favorite board was the Yamaha EX 7, but this is now my new prize and joy!
Hi Rich I love all of your vid's. Question 1. How can I only split the left side the low end from the right the high end. 2. is there bass sounds with in the sound banks or program?
Ok, I'm organizing my patches but now the Rock-Organ Overdrive patch doesn't have the Leslie effect on it in the Combi Mode. Any way to get it? Thanks for the AWESOME video's! SOOO Helpful!!!
ok but, this is not the way it should be ... the same with the Krome. Il like the sounds very much but no favorites ! and korg sell this for studio and live performance keyboard. All other features are useless to me. I bought this for the sounds and live use and I am very disappointed when I discovered that the most logical functions are not present. wy not like the sv1 .... choose the sound ... push the button , 2 x and done in other words, nice board but for home use in the first place and another thing about the SV1 , i love it !!! but ... I'm waiting for sound pack 3, 4 ?? with harpsichord ?, piano forte ? classical organs for example .... these are also vintage but for classical music. There are also people who are playing jazz and classical music ... like me! sorry but I hope you understand my frustration and I think for many live musicians (semi-pro) Please Korg !
Hi, Great videos. I have a question. There are combination programs that i would like to organise into my favourite files. Is there also a way on how to organise combinations to favourites ? Thanks
How do I play the sounds once they are in the combi mode? I want to use the format in the tutorial of having each song with its sounds, but I don't know how to get the different sounds to work. The tutorial doesn't explain what to do after the combi is created. Can you make a more detailed video? And do a part to show how it actually would work at a gig? Thanks.
I love m50 sounds, but after 5 years i´m still having a lot of problems playing live, sometimes i can´t change in a quickly way the programs. TouchScreen looks great but not always is a solution for gigs. I tried to organize programs using buttons, but until this moment, doesn´t work at all.
Can I give a custom combi multiple sub categories? For example if I wanted to make a subcategory for every song I play Live. the reason is each song has multiple sounds needed.
Question: I love my new Korg M50, and these videos are very helpful, however, anytime I try to save into the Combi D it will always go to the piano (A0001) sound, no matter what program I'm trying to save. It didn't do this at first, but now it is. Any helpful ideas?
How do I play the sounds once they are in the combi mode? I want to use the format in the tutorial of having each song with its sounds, but I don't know how to get the different sounds to work.
So is there anyway to save individual programs without overwriting the ones that come with the M50? I saved an edited program to user bank 16, but it overwrote something in Bank C.
Does the m50 have anything similar to the set list mode on the kronos? or do you just have to put your sounds in order on the empty bank in combi mode?
@KorgUSAVideos But if I select "Write Combination" and Specify a location to save the new sound.... Will I lose(overwrite) the original sound or not? I loved my Korg M50, but I'm embarrassed to play live. I want the piano in "Bank A" organ in "Bank B" pads in "Bank C "... How Do I that? Whereas all the combinations that I create are saved only in the "Bank D" (user 16)
@KorgUSAVideos i have the same problem as korgusavideos did. I tried writting the combination and specifyin a new location for the sound but what i if i just want to copy it and not completely move it from its original place? Do you know of any other way where i can just make a set list of songs with different sounds in them so i can play easily?
hello could make tutorials in Spanish for the Latino community, how to divide the keyboard into two sounds and how to combine two or three sounds in one ... gracias saludos desde peru
I've noticed that before putting another sound over an empty one (initcombi...), the sound has a number, and if you copy all these sounds, in another group/section. They will order in ascending order (i.e 56, 65 etc). The problem is that I noticed this after I made all the sounds, is there any way to change the order without making a puzzle game out of this? Also is there any way to make the foot switch pedal to work in the sub category? I mean if you press the pedal it changes the main category
A friend of mine has a Korg X50 and i dont know but whenever i play his keyboard most of the Sounds Sound Thicker and Stronger than the M50, I have really good ear i think, does anybody know whats going on. I just bought my M50 and i thought it would Own the X50.
Hi I bought the korg M-50 61 key and I have a simple problem which I cannot resolve. Actually the buttons are with touch sesitivity which means when I press the keys the sound depends on the touch of finger's fource like a grande piano. Anyone can help me how can I remove the touch sensitivity please?
it'll help a lot if someone knows how to change octaves when doing Sounds in Combi/Split Mode. (Ex.: put an organ in the lower octaves C1 to C3 approx, but need to up octaves). Thanks Guys!
Fact: Triton classic did not have Copy from Program easy command. Fact: Triton classic had no empty combi bank :P only one "user slot" Black Humor I guess

You saved me life... in a few days I'll have to play, and I didn't know how to organize programs on my keyboard!
thanks for this content... good to know how to save presets so easily..
shout outs from Australia.

This info is EXACTLY what I was looking for! Thank you for posting this. You did a wonderful job of explaining this.

How do I delete combis from d bank?

=D i learn something new about keyboards everyday. BTW does the m50 have great pre set piano and synth sounds? I havent got the chance to go to guitar center lately.

Hi Rich I love all of your vid's. Question 1. How can I only split the left side the low end from the right the high end. 2. is there bass sounds with in the sound banks or program?
any way around to smoothly change combis? without the sound abruptly cutting off?
Adrián buy a Kronos, only just now instituted that feature
You need an SD card.
1.Save the Vintage Keys file onto the SD Card.
2. Put it in the M50.
3. Load it under MEDIA.

Ricky Martín'ez yo can program a pedal to do it
@KorgUSAVideos Thanks, Did that, but the copy from program only allows me to select a program, not another combination.
Can I give a custom combi multiple sub categories? For example if I wanted to make a subcategory for every song I play Live. the reason is each song has multiple sounds needed.
@DDDekost I figured it out how to make it work, I just change the pedal settings from 'program up' to 'value inc'

@SliperFail Try the Global Settings.
But what about moving or deleting combis???

Ok, some how I lost my smokehouse organ sound replaced by vibraphone from bank B is there a way to reverse that?
What speakers are you using?

Does anybody know how to change Octaves in the piano ? i want to play a little more to the left and have more space in the right.

Thanks Guys!
