These are one of the best syths ever made. They are astounding in their quality sound. They are superb with Brass and woodwinds
instruments in particular. Streets ahead of Roland.
The saxophone gives me chills. It's both, rich and incredibly nostalgic.
Idk who Michael Bolton producer was but I bet you he had one of these on the rack.
Thank you for just playing the sounds with no talking ;)
I 2nd this, this is what a real demo video should be.
I started making tunes in high school, the music department had a korg M1 and a some sequencer dooofer. I made so many tunes that the music head got the 05r/W in, i passed my music exams with it!😂 good times
Original guitar player 01w owner… just picked one of these up plus a USB to midi converter so I can use USB keyboards with it. This box is an upgrade on the 01 so I am stoked. I did not want to Lug my laptop around with my softsynths. I becoming a keyboard player and only play 80s 90s. .., enter yhe 05!
Wow. Excellent sounds! Korg cannot be underestimated.
Son los mismos sonidos de el korg x5d
What many people may not realize is that most of the patches on the X5DR are set up to respond to modulation 2 controller which controls the filter or other aspects of the sounds. Connect it to a keyboard controller with mod1 and mod2 wheel and it opens up a whole new world of sounds!!
Wow, I had one of these back in '92 or '93...I can't believe how much i miss it after hearing your demo...
Me too
This demo made me fall in love again with my 05R/W. Mine has been sitting for a few years unused. I'm going to have it serviced and put it to good use again. Thank you!
Finally a well-organized, recorded, and performed sample of this unit's capabilities and sounds. Thanks much!
It is amazing how little the progress in the last 30years was! In the 90ies I had a KORG X3 and than I had a break of a few years. 2015 I was looking for a new synth and I was amazed that the todays synths don‘t sound much better than they sounded in the 90ies…
That would be because PCM-based subtractive synthesis more or less reached the limits of what can be done with a string of numbers in a computer memory in the mid-late 2000s.
The best example is the Yamaha Motif series, which have synth engines that be directly traced all the way back to late 80's, with the SY77/99 and SY85. The same could be said of both Korg and Roland's PCM based engines - while the "bells and whistles" might change with each new generation, (better effects for example), the core synthesis process has always remained the same.
The newer Casios have tremendous sound now. Not just the cheesy presets like the early 90s. Depending on what instrument is played they have plucking and strumming for guitars and stringed instruments and breathing sounds with brass and woodwinds. The built-in speakers blew me away with their sound.
THIS is how a demo should look.
Thanx
The guy playing is super badass on the the keyboard!👍
Saw this demo and decided to buy it.
Today i just got this same module from Korg.
What a nice surprise!
Great sound nice price less than 80€ u just have a classic korg nice sound.
Impressive..👍
Sold this one more than 20 years ago, unforgettable sounds on this machine, think I'm going to re-buy it soon...
Awesome sounds and great playing! Also, so cool you played some Police on the patch 31: Stak'o Midi.
Nice demo :) I bought it when it was released and still use it sometimes.
Wowww first video found with no talking. Thanks man great job.
That module and your playing are both really good! It's 2024 and I still have the Korg X5DR as well as Yamaha, Alesis and Emu modules.
Thanks a lot! That's the best demo for this synth. I was wondering to buy it or not - now I definitely want it :)
Yep, this was a nice purchase back in the day. Still have it.
great playing ... perfect demo! thx!
one of the best demo videos on youtube thank you!!
wow, thanks my friend!!!
Very nice demo!
Pretty amazing really in the right hands
Excellent sounds!!!!!
You are very good at making demos!
Great stuff!!
Wow the way you played bass vibes. You are a pro obviously
how cool that you have to every sound a playing theme directly. pro : )
just been given one can't wait use it
Thanks for the demo and run through of the sounds Alex - I`ll be picking one of these up tomorrow for £30 - I already own the Korg 01/w which uses very very similar patches. Just going to play around with it for a while, may pop up a demo too :)
realy a good demo !
15:03 - There's no better choice to test a Deep Purle organ than play some Deep Purple music! :D
"Knocking At Your Back Door", from "Perfect Strangers" album. Nice choice :)
I love the way the leads dance in the background ;)
Thanks for sharing this
Good playing & sounds 👍
thnaks! my pleasure!
A great guy, Frank Carvalho, made in the '90's a complete Hammond patches set comparing this Korg and his L100 Hammond using ear and an oscilloscope! Probably it works also on X5Dr. And, best of the best, the set is free to be downloaded! Google for it. Thanks Frank!
i sold mine yesterday, i already miss it, although it was sooo boring to edit patches without s/w. thanks for the vid anyway
Good sounds :-), trying to get a hold of one :D. Thanks for the demo!
+Frequency Bender I've got one for sale if you're interested?
Very helpful video thanks!
Pedazo músico eres. Me acabo de comprar un cacharrito de estos en pleno 2024 por este video. Gracias.
Cool demo with nice melodies you played (something between the dance music and video games of those days). Fits perfectly to the 90's era. Thanks! :)
Great video. No talking just sound. Just got one of these for £2 think is worth keeping.
£2? I got my one some 20 years or so for £400.
Did you change the battery?
If yo do watch out for the small nut behind the “Host Port” as it’s a wee bugger to keep still when re-assembling.
£2 - did you pay over six months 😂
Fantastic playing. You should have been the Korg trade show guy when these came out!!. Hard to find anything on this little box, they are not for sale so often either. I thought Korg had sold a ton of these back then. I still have mine, needs some repair though since the output is distorted. Had a lot of fun with this little box live back then :-)
This was my only rack for 10 years, and it still sounds great, although I'm a little burned out on the sounds by now. This is the Combi bank. There's another 100 sounds in the Program bank, plus a GM sound set. The weakest points of the 05R/W are the 32-note polyphony (less for many sounds) and the lack of any filter resonance. This means "wha-wha" and big sweep sounds are not really possible. But the strings, guitars, organ and brass are all excellent. Piano is weak, though.
Despite the name, it's not really based on the bigger 01R/W. It's based on the "budget" Korg X5 board. They also released an X5DR rack a year later in 1995, which looks identical, but had 64-note polyphony and one more bank of sounds that could be loaded.
For a relatively cheap rack in 1994, this was a nice unit. Korg finally added filter resonance with the Trinity and Triton lines a few years later.
+geoffk777 Thank you
If polyphony is a dealbreaker for you on this module, I'd say Get TWO and double the polyphony!
@@HOOKSnKISSES Or get an X5DR, which already has double. Or get a slightly later Korg like an N1R or even a TR Rack or Triton Rack. All of these are dirt cheap now.
@@geoffk777 ikr. Just thought it was some good thinking ahead by Korg to actually implement a stacking feature in the 05r/w. ;)
Nice sound and great playing
Thank you!
excelent demo iiii thank you iii
I had a Korg TR full synth with keyboard had to sell it now I miss it ,!. Seems this much older model has many of the same as the tr
sounds fly
Your playing is as eclectic as the module. I'm sold! I just bought one used. It's much like my Alesis S4+ Great diversity.
This module is pinnacle KORG. Hel, even Australias finest - Voyager - use and abuse it on a regular basis. Stellar machine"
Suena muy bien, vale la pena gastar en nuevo X5D?.....gracias
Great unit, lacks the punch of its granny M3r or M1, but is more powerful, with more waveforms.
Lacks filter resonance, but it can be obtained somehow with a little trick using the distorsion effect.
@peter47a not skipped, plays at 1:00.
Only korg have this kind of synth leads
Hi, thank you for making this great video. Im just wondering can we save voices into one bank so that we dont need to change the voice manually one by one or can we press the number of the voice in the module device. FYI, I use Roland Juno. regard
yeah that's "every little she does is magic" - i really need to learn thecomplete chorus one day, the changes are quite hard to keep in mind ;-)
Right, sure. Please tell me more about how the filters and effects on a AI2-based system are *so* much better than on an LA2-based machine...
It's the filters, effects and programmability that define a synth's sound, and it's in these features that the LA2 system is superior.
I cant believe there are 11 idiots out there that thumbed down this video. Great demo man. Great playing as well. What a talented person you are.
HOLA SR DONDE ENCUENTRO ESTE MODULO EN ECUADOR?....
Tiene el sonido split sync?
the slap & pop preset is like the seinfeld bass :O
LOL. This is Exactly what crossed my mind too!
trumpets?
muy buen sonido
Does this come with the dynopiano? Is 32 polyphony enough?
i dont know how you get this sax sounding in patch "sax heaven", but at mine it does not. is it changed patch?
09-Celebrate! Sounds like Oktoberfest!!! :D
Towards the end of last year I was outbid on a Korg 05/W but to be fair I let myself get outbit as it started at a low bid of about £20
and the final bid was £200. I'm still hoping to buy another one in the future but does the 01/W have any advantage over the 05R/W
or do you think the sound quality is the same?
Can i plug any type of midi controller into this then straight into amp?
Basically I was just noodling around, but thanks for the compliment! ;-)
que lindo lo vendes?
0:43 now that's rock n roll
Wonderful demonstration!! Bravo! Can you get a Fender Rhoads sound out of the synth?
Thanks for your comment. Unfortunately I don’t own this device anymore. But I don’t think you can get a decent Rhodes sound out of it by todays standards.
where i can buy this one?
cool, when you use it as multi midi channels can each patch have its own fx, or is it limited to a global setting for fx?..cheers
It is limited to a global setting for fx.
I need this. nick
beautiful will buy
Corresponds to the successor of the M1, the X2, X3 Workstations and later X5 and X5D series of Synths.
The X5 series was pretty much the latest generation in AI2-only synths, pretty much rivalling the Roland D-series when it comes to the sound engine. The X3 is more geared towards arranging and a workstation-type keyboard, where the X5 s more suitable for a live gig since it's more compact and doesn't have a sequencer.
I'd pit the X5D against a Roland D-50 when it comes to capabilties, but the one thing missing on the Korg synths is a resonant filter.
I saw some videos here on UA-cam that show how resonance can be obtained just editing one of the effects of the machine. It can also mimic a 303 squelchy resonance!!
Хорошо..толково показал все звуки..
If you expect me to answer, you might try it in english again ;)
Trivia: Jeffery Townsend used this for its Gracie Films logo
Didn't know about this, thanks!
Now if you were to compare the D-50 to the M1 you would have a good point... I sold my M1 3 days after I bought it and went back to my D-50, the M1 is just a lifeless rompler with no soul at all...
One of the MANY synths I've owned and wished I'd never parted with!!! Early on I was a huge roland fan. I mean to say thats all i wanted. Then i happened in one of these dirt cheap at a music store and said "ok why not". Fell in love from the first preset. I will find another one someday and will NOT part with it. Since then I've been the proud owner of the wavestation, poly 800, karma and many more. Still like roland as well as Yamaha. Each company has their strong points but I will always favor Korg over the rest.
Korg X5DR is one of my favorite synths ! I don't really understand where it fits into the Korg line of synths, I mean which synths it is similar too or if here are any other Korg synths that have the same sounds with better quality. But from the synths I have tried I find X5DR to be very different from earlier romplers like M1 and Wavestation, and also different compared to Triton and later synths. The sounds are very rich and interesting.
It's a rack version of the X5 board. The X5 uses the same AI2 synthesis as the 01R/W (with no filter resonance). This was developed a bit more in the N Series units. The final rack of this Series is the N1R, which has more sounds, better polyphony and a better piano sample, so that's the best to get in this line. Korg changed engines for the Trinity and Triton, finally adding filter resonance. But everything from the 01R/W until the Trinity is all pretty similar (except the WaveStation).
@@geoffk777 Thanks for this explanation.
Entre esse rack e o teclado korg x5d qual melhor ?
LOVE 6:07 :-)
Buen día donde podré conseguir un módulo así? Saludos
Hola maestro soy Diego lienhardt de daireaux Yo tengo este módulo módulo korg 05R /w con todos los sonidos de un teclado korg grabados
Ademas tengo un korg poly 800

My midi keyboard controller only has a USB midi out.. How can I use it to control modules?
+Tom Jeffrey Macalisang You connect the keyBoards output to the SoundModules Input... then connect the Speakers to the Sound Module...
Unfortunately, it only has a USB out, by the way my controller is a M-AUDIO Oxygen 61 MK4 which doesn't have a 5-pin MIDI in or out.
Tom Jeffrey Macalisang get a usb midi adaptor.
If you do not want to use a computer, you need a "USB MIDI Host" device.
What is better, Korg 01W, 03R/W, 05R/W, X3R? Great synths anyway, Korg rules! :)
The 01W - the rest are all descendants, using the same synth engine, but also stripped down and missing small bits here and there.
@@looneyburgmusic That's right!
The 01R/W is the first, but it's not the best. I'd advise getting an N Series unit like the N1 or N1R. These do everything that the 01R/W does, but have better polyphony, more sounds and larger samples (but still have all of the 01R/W sounds too)
@@geoffk777 just like with the Krome, most of the extra PCM samples are piano/e. piano/drums, plus I don't believe the N-series has the wave-shaping the 01W has... Would have to double check though
@@looneyburgmusic Right Z-Series has waveshaping I think, but not the N-Series.
tiene el dyno piano?? y digi piano???
DynoPiano : 10:07
Are these sounds all of the KORG 05R/W???
All of the Combi sounds. There are also 100 Program sounds and a General MIDI bank.
90 percent 🧀. Then out of nowhere, the Blues Harp is 🔥. No one makes a good blues Harp, almost worth the price of admission. I half want this box just to play harp with my MIDI 🎸.
A shame you skipped 07 Layer Strings, one of the most impressive movie string presets I came across.
peter47a 15:27
I have one since 1995 nothing comes close to KORG Sounds
Are these the preset sounds?
yes they are. The 05 shares the same rom set as the X3, and partly, the O1W.
looneyburgmusic Thanks, and how would this compare to the nx5r in terms of sounds, and richness of sound?
prinsje99 I've never used an NX, so I can only go on what the specs say. They both use the same AI2 synth engine, but the NX has a larger waveform memory then the 05, which is usually a good thing. There is also an XG daughter board, which the 05 does not have. So just from reading, the NX would probably top the 05.
looneyburgmusic The NX5R was literally the last AI2-based synth that Korg made. it has all of the sounds of the 05R/W plus many others, with more presets, more polyphony and a better display. Even the piano sound is fairly decent, which isn't true on the 05R/W. You'd expect it to be better, as it's 5 years newer (1999 vs 1994). But the basic synthesis engine is the same, which is why many sounds are literally identical. Like the 05R/W, it lacks filter resonance, unfortunately.
It's a nice unit, if you have one, but I'd get a (Trinity) TR-Rack or Triton Rack instead. Both of these are pretty cheap nowadays.
geoffk777 Think you meant to tell prinsje99 that :-). My current "work" rig is made up of a Korg Trition, Yamaha Motif ES, and a Krog Krome :-)
Звучит хорошо.
Great sounds. But if not for the great playing tons how them off then who'd know thanks is 100'bucks a good price
KORG 05R/W= KORG X2?
The X2 includes every multisample of the 05R/W, plus a 2 MiB acoustic piano multisample.
gracias amigo
Sounds like a Korg x5dr
Yes, same engine! The X5Dr is a little newer, double poliphony (64 voices instead 32 and probably a little more waveforms).
