simon Posted August 7, 2021 Share Posted August 7, 2021 noticed today there is an update to Triton and Triton_Extreme...to version '.01' plus an update to the Software Pass application (to 1.1.4 iirc) On windows the software pass is still confused as to what you have installed - plus the installers seem to throw the vst2 .dll wherever they like so worth checking before you click 'next' on the installers. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abacab Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 (edited) So I woke up this morning, fired up my copy of AKAI VIP 3, and after it scanned my new KORG plugins, guess what? There were factory preset maps available for some of them!!! ? The VIP preset browser has these all tagged by "Instrument | Timbre | Style | Articulation". M1: 1524 presets MonoPoly: 257 presets MS-20: 32 presets Polysix: 32 presets Wavestation: 900 presets Edited August 8, 2021 by abacab 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergio Posted August 8, 2021 Share Posted August 8, 2021 So far I'm loving the new instruments. I have a HW Prophecy and the emulation is near enough and a lot easier to program . What surprised me though was the miniKORG 700S. A very nice sounding synth and with all the limitations of the original. The Tritons are also OK and although I always preferred the Roland romplers the cloud thing is not for me. Roland... I'll use HW. But for the classic Korg sound the emulations are fine. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Posted August 9, 2021 Share Posted August 9, 2021 Please also check the Bonus Content while you logged in with your Korg ID. There are lots of additional sounds available. Little bit tricky to install but really nice. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abacab Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 (edited) Plugin Guru has "Unified" the Korg Prophecy factory patches for Unify. Skippy just announced it on his livestream today! Link is in the chat, but will be updated in the description and website later...

abacab Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 (edited) The Korg-meister! Skippy mentioned in the livestream that the Prophecy (released in 1995) was the first Korg synth to offer physical modeling synthesis. So Korg has continued to build on those algorithms for over two decades. It's fairly rudimentary tech in the Prophecy, but still fun to experiment with. He gives a short programming tutorial in the latter part of the recorded livestream. ? And somebody asked in the chat if any other Korg Collection synths were in the "Unified" pipeline. Skippy said that the M1 and Wavestation were being actively worked on. I believe @ZincTmay have some involvement over at the Unify forum...

Fleer Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 Indeed, Zinc Trumpet is doing great things. Would be wonderful to see a Unified M1 and Wavestation. Those are my favorites in the Korg Collection. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simon Posted August 26, 2021 Share Posted August 26, 2021 a little bump for this - a few updates available including one for the software pass that actually knows what's installed and what needs updating...it's almost useful now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah it's ridiculous really. I assume they think they can make some easy money from us suckers, er- I mean existing customers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those are my favorites in the Korg Collection. For those with Akai VIP 3, you can layer up to eight synths in a VIP multi, so it is possible to build a mammoth Korg + Unify multi (1–8 patches from 1 or more plugins). The VIP preset browser has presets tagged by "Instrument | Timbre | Style | Articulation". So using the presets in VIP it is possible to build a multi for the Korg M1 and Wavestation, and then add Unify as another instrument in any 1 of the 8 VIP patch channels (layers). Unify presets are not VIP mapped, but you can open up the Unify GUI within VIP, and manually choose the Unify presets and additional Unify layers you wish within a Unify instance. Korg M1: 1524 VIP presets Korg Wavestation: VIP 900 presets Unify: Unlimited layers of any plugin. One really neat trick here is that Unify can open VST3 plugins, even wile running as a VST2 plugin at the time. In this instance VIP 3 cannot run VST3 plugins natively, but with a little Unify magic, BOOM! Load a VST3 only layer inside of Unify, inside of VST2 only VIP!

Vst0nE Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 got reply from KORG below There is no upgrade offer at $50, the $99 upgrade price is correct for Special Bundle v2 license owners so keep it then Korg, hard pass for me 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abacab Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 (edited) Korg Collection 3 is probably the best synth collection available after Arturia V Collection 8. I got the upgrade from M1 Le for $199 and it was well worth it! Edited December 2, 2021 by abacab Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
