[BlazyNonVevo]

i wish i had the money for one

well i got fl lol

[whoami50313]

Sir,are you improving or correcting the sound?I can't find the great EGR voice like yours in M50.Could you tell me how did your do that. thx (I'm the beginner to use this keyboard.And also it's my first keyboard.)

[rotor9494]

Between the Korg TR, the Korg X50 and the Korg M50, which keyboard is best for Dream Theater-esque sounds (Leads, Orchestral sounds, etc.)?

[Space4Keys]

@rotor9494 Korg M50 has best sampled sounds ;)

[rotor9494]

Hello Space4Keys! I'm debating whether to buy a Korg TR or a Korg M50. Can you please give me a recommendation on which to buy?

[BryanHolopainen]

Did you made some of these combs or they allready come with the keyboard?

[ragnarok9899]

Great demo!

[12jpa]

which is more better than yamaha mo6 or korg m50???

[TornadoOf07]

@12jpa Depends on which genre of music you want to play. I play a mixture of prog rock, new age and pop and find the M50 much better for the latter 2 (great pads, leads and combis) and the MO6 better for the first, mostly because the piano and organ sounds are slightly better. I own both, they're both good, but I personally prefer the M50 more. Just depends on what you're playing and what kind of sound you want.

[mattliebl6199]

which of these keyboards has the worst pre loaded piano sounds? korg triton classic, korg triton LE, korg triton extreme, korg TR, korg karma, or the korg m50?

[Space4Keys]

M50 ;)

[mattliebl6199]

the m50 doesmnt have good pianos?

[Space4Keys]

have the best piano on Korg entry level WS

[mattliebl6199]

awesommme. so how bout the korg tritons? do they not have good pianos?

[Space4Keys]

TRITON as no good piano bat you can LOAD our KURZWEIL PIANO in the TRITON series

[mattliebl6199]

awesome. i will get the m50. i was gunna buy the korg karma but im pretty sure the m50 has better piano than the karma

[afzanyzam]

u should compare to JORDAN RUDES..

[KOMPOSTIPIANO]

Great demo. The M50 is kinda more affordable version of M3 and some people are comparing those 2... well anyway presets don't tell a synths true Power. And the M50 has a lot of Power.

[ballademaker]

good demo of the korg m50 5+++++

[chiludo1312vargas]

you are very good i like

[ProgRog]

Holy Shit! You're awesome!

[voltaspeeder17]

You're a really good demonstrator!

[ballademaker]

how is korg m50 compare to the red korg karma?? in use and sound quality??

and in software use of karma? the guitar sound seems to be very good. ok thanks for a answer. from ballademaker Norway love my korg karma its grooving.

[voltaspeeder17]

I played them both and i have to say, that the red karma is much better. It has the quality. I don't want to say that M50 is bad, but it surely isn't that strong keyboard like red Karma. Korg M3 is much better than M50 and it is stronger than red Karma. Many new function and so many good sounds... It's worth buying! Also, Yamaha motif ES is a good keyboard for it's price.

[pictishmojo]

Been weighing up a 2nd hand karma against a new korg m50. Mainly looking for good hammonds, pianos, rhodes, mellotrons, strings plus non-cheesey spacey sounds. How does the karma weigh up on those? Do you need to get expansion boards? I can't make up my mind between these two. Help

[voltaspeeder17]

Dude, i really doesn't pay attention to hammons, and rhodes, because i don't like to play them. Well hammonds at least. But as much i remember other sound, the pianos aren't good on both, so they are even for me, rhodes are better on M50, i don't know what mellotron is, string are great on karma, for m50 i don't think it has so good strings, and also your non-cheesy spacey sounds are great on both.

[voltaspeeder17]

If you wan't to have good pianos and rhodes, also the strings, you should check out Yamaha motif or yamaha MO in this price range. They are really awesome for that sounds and other acoustic.

I played lots of korgs and i have to say that this new korg series (M3,M50) and also red karma isn't that good for pianos. Korg triton pianos were better for me if i compare them to new korgs. But korgs was always great for bass, synth, strings and pad sonds. This is all i can say. Check vids on the net!

[pictishmojo]

Cheers - not sure I'm convinced by the yamahas. If I had the money and they had a more complete set of sounds I'd go for a nord.

[voltaspeeder17]

Well, you're right. I played many keyboard, and every each of them had something i didn't like. Some lacked of good pianos, some didn't have good strings, but Korg M50 doesn't have so many stuff i would like to have, that i would rather buy Korg Triton Extreme or maybe TR. They are better keyboard in my opinion, for that price at least ( not new Extreme ).

[dragonsagoth666]

M50 and M3 have VASTLY improved pianos in regards to older Triton series, because piano sample is coming from OASYS.

M50 has very good pianos, great organs and nice rhodes, you should try it. Also, Korg is better in strings than Yamaha.

[voltaspeeder17]

Well dude, i don't agree, that M50 has better pianos then Triton series or Yamaha But i agree that M3 has commonly good pianos than Triton's.

Also the electric guitar sounds in M50 and M3 aren't that good like some amazing guitar sounds in Triton Extreme or Yamaha Motif ( ES, XS ) . You cannot judge which strings are better, because everyone has different taste so this is only matter of someone's opinion and it's not fact. The fact is, that Korg have amazing synth and pad sounds.

[dragonsagoth666]

M50 has THE SAME piano samples that M3 has. And if you don't like them, you can still edit them!

Electric guitar sounds are excellent and VERY playable on M50/M3, at least I like them, it's subjective. It's true that Motifs have better acoustic guitars, but I don't care since I can play it myself.

And yeah, Korg always had amazing synth sounds.

[voltaspeeder17]

Well dude, we seems to agree in some terms like synth sounds. But it's not true, that M3 and M50 has the same piano samples! I play them both and i can say that pianos in M3 are better that in M50. Yes, they have same Karma technology, but M50 lacks of lots of power, than M3 has. But if you compare M50 and upgraded M3 pianos ( which are really from Oasys ) the difference is so noticable, that everyone can hear it.

I don't say that M50 is bad keyboard, i just say that i lacks lots of power.

[Kahva123]

m50 is probably the most powerful and versatile keyboard you can get at that price. m3 Expanded pianos are just pure awesome after you edit them a bit, but you can get very good piano sounds out of m50 also by doing some editing. I own a Triton Le and I can say that even m50 pianos are about 100x more realistic. Triton Le pianos are probably the worst I have heard. They are way too bright!

[voltaspeeder17]

True! LE pianos are not very good, i totally agree. But Triton TR 88 pianos sound wonderful and by my opinion better that normal pianos in M50. I don't know how expanded sounds, so i cannot judge. Well, overall M50 isn't bad synth, but at this price you can get Korg Karma or Korg Triton Extreme, which are better in my opinion. Well, even Yamaha Motif or Roland Fantom X are great keyboards in this price range ( not new of course :) ).

[afzanyzam]

M50 & M3 had same EDS engine...comeon..! read a lot...! OASYS doesnt use EDS..OASYS is a generate by super computer engine...

[afzanyzam]

You talk about M50 & M3? so..compare your keybd to d greatest ever Workstation...OASYS!

[voltaspeeder17]

Dude, where did i mention Oasys? :) Read my commets well first and then comment.

[afzanyzam]

Oh..! sorry is my wrong comment..! i really excited enjoy my new OASYS..! it's a first OASYS at Dubai. ..sorry dude..!

[voltaspeeder17]

No problem dude :) Man, you obviously have one hell of a synth. Wish i had it someday :) Upload some vids for us!

[afzanyzam]

Come to Dubai..play music here..u make big money..OASYS only $6-7,000..not much money here..I have keyboard all popular brand about 38 piece..

[razcobhc]

Great vid, can you make a demo of various flutes and choir human voice like effect (i' m crazy about those :p)??

[lujoebonjo]

the m50 has alot of good flute sounds but not so many choir ones

[michelkeijzers]

Thanks for the demos ... I consider them more valuable than the official demos ... yours show the real sonic power of the M50 and not some cheesy sequencer created song where you cannot hear the real instruments.

[RockyMM]

Thanks!

I was thinking of buying 6 octave version. Great lead sounds, BTW :)

[themonillo]

Thanks for the demos of m50... It arrives to Chile in April of this year... I'm gonna buy it.

bye. Saludos desde Chile
