Korg X5D - JayB's Combination Patches

[jeanpaulfelix]

One of the best vids on the internet....can you please answer me this thing in the most basic way please? Can you make a 'multi-layered' track on this thing, meaning that you can record let's say synths, drums, guitar sound in one track.....is it 'programmable' like a Korg M3?

[Hanni13579]

@jeanpaulfelix It has a multi mode that supports 16 channels for program voices (Combis are not supported), it has two master effects, no inserts and - maybe you wanted to know that - no internal sequencer. So you have to use a computer or hardware midi sequencer to create songs with this machine.

[jeanpaulfelix]

@Hanni13579

oh o.k thanks so much sir, And i meant something like this Trystan Trycha stuff during my last post...some of his vids are on youtube where he seems to be making synths,drums,violin sounds etc. in one sitting on the machine itself or maybe i'm mistaken....Can you please please suggest a good keyboard/synth of this sort within the 1000-1500 range that's really good for production/sequencing etc.!

[jeanpaulfelix]

@Hanni13579

Also by 'internal sequencer' do you mean instruments like the Axiom 61 where the perosn can play internal beats alongside keys etc.?

[jeanpaulfelix]

@Hanni13579

Also when i said 'this sort' i don't necessarily mean programmable at one time...i can do that later on Ableton or something....just please suggest a good overall keyboard within the 1000 to 1500 range.....And thanks so much....Also can you give me reasons as to why you choose a particular keyboard etc.?

[1k4z31]

lol, like we needed to see there are no crappy midi cables :) sweet, ty

[Hanni13579]

@1k4z31 Hehe. Some guy complained on a previous video that I was just controlling a Access Virus or something and the video was all fake. That's why. :P

@Hanni13579

WOW i will mor seeeeeeeeee !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[danielortizdecaracas]

all combi are the same patch lvery little different no much, i recommend to buy an arturia origin or roland gaia or any other synth more adecuate with your style

[Hanni13579]

@danielortizdecaracas You are right, these are all SuperSaw emulation sounds, HandsUp leads and such. In my third video with the X5D ("More sounds...") you can hear different combinations. :)

[Atarexan]

Hey man i have a question... I have korg x5D and i have midi - usb cable interface... Then i have a problem... Midi cable is installed properly (in/in, out/out, usb in usb :P), i fired up my FL studio, set up everything and tryed to play, but nothing happen's... So i was wondering, is there some settings on keyboard it self that i need to check so it can work. I want to use VST from my PC, dont want sounds from keyboard... You know what i mean :) Tnx anyway :)

[calico992]

I search for Korg X5 in the Youtube engine, and all I get are videos for X5D! I don't want videos for X5D! AHHHH FRUSTRATING

[Hanni13579]

There's not too much difference between Korg X5 and X5D. It's only a few more multi samples in the ROM, e.g. WhiteNoise, which is used in this video in almost all sounds.... ^^

[christianratts]

god damn, i had X5D, but sold it cause it's piece of shit (for hard trance)

this video proves that a true master can make even such a shit like X5D sound awesome!!

i wonder how tiring was the programming with all these menus

[Hanni13579]

The menu structure was the least problem. It was rather hard to get all the saws layered without achieving a flanger effect.

[JohnandAnnick1]

can u do a tutorial on back to earth?

[roony8888]

alguno ssaber com programar estos sonidos en korg...hell me..to program my keyboard..like this..EL SONIDO COMOS E HACE..GRCIAS..

[roony8888]

hello.hanni13579.well I am ronald from Argentinian a greeting love help for programar these sounds that your have ahy of the korg x5d..In this video 14 the number ..That...It helps graces.

[dcool]

very nice combi. I like the pad and brass sounds. Amazing old technoly is still da best and produce fat sounds

[cantfademel]

YOU NEED TO NOT PLAY THE MIDI FOR MIDI IS NOT THE GOOD AND YOU NEED TO PLAY THE CHILDREN OF BODOM NOT THE TRANCE

Just kidding. Great video. I'm getting an X5 today. :) Thanks for sharing.

[klokwrkblu]

wonder where i can find a vst plugin of this same keyboard?

any links?

[fireflycebu]

try also to watch our mtv "Tamse Remastered"

[Brazokas]

Qué ruido de la ostia, toque algo que se entienda, ¿si lo sabes ?... asi esta muy mal... tienes que meterte urgente en una buena escuela colega.... creo que este teclado es de tu hermano mayor , y pronto tu vas a dañalo.... un consejo ..vete a fregar los platos en la cozina que esto de musica no es para ti....

[MrGeomusic]

Vaya a cojer por el culo maricon!! no entiendo como aparecen tanto mmg opinando mierda!!

[eggeggli]

First: this is techno or trance, its the same shit.

Second: Everyone connect X5D with COB, because one of the best keyboard players use this simple keyboard.

[MrGeomusic]

shut up motha fucka!! kiss my ass!!! this video is really good, if u not like that... suck my d...

[Hanni13579]

Calm down, buddy. I'm used to this. :) Thanks anyway. ;)

[eggeggli]

drop techno and try children of bodom ^^

[Hanni13579]

First, this is NOT techno and sencond why does every third connect the X5D with this band? I can't hear it anymore.

[fireflycebu]

try also to look at our mtv "Tamse Remastered" I'm using x5d

[fabiuh991]

y'r the man =D

[zorfael]

Can achieve those sounds with my Korg X2?

[metaspherz]

I've always hated midi anyway. Somehow it's cheating. If you can program midi why bother to learn to play? That's just my opinion. I know guys who can program midi but can't play a lick. It's paint by numbers IMO. But the person who can do both has got my greatest respect too.

[Hanni13579]

I just mentioned the MIDI plugs thing, because some complained in the previous videos, that I only used the X5D as a keyboard to control another synth. When producing, I usually play licks live via midi into the sequencer, quantisize it and then send it back to the synths iva midi. Always sounds cleaner this way. :)

[peter47a]

I wouldn't see it as dramatic as you do. If you cannot play something, maybe due to its speed like 180bpm, I'm glad it is program-able with midi.

I also know some of my friends with RSI (Repetitive Strain Injury), they simply can't play fast anymore, with Midi they can still express their feelings into music.

[peter47a]

Is it cheating? Yeah, I guess, but what's technology good for if you don't use it? If you want handmade music you take an accoustic instrument like a piano.

On a synth you have arps, sequencers, patterns and lots more to use. For example run a drum loop with an arp and play to it. Not cheating to me. Rather a feature.

[metaspherz]

I can't disagree with either of your replies. It's still a gut feeling with me. Music IS emotion. Not that I'm a purist but I respect the guy that has learned the chords & mastered his craft. Fast doesn't mean good. It's different than letting the computer 'do it for you' --which is why I said it's cheating--even if it's accepted by the industry & fans. Midi is paint by numbers--a Player Piano sounds good too! Like I said the person who can do both has my greatest respect.

[Shanai64]

Can you help your me with the programming of my sintetisador?

I like the sounds that you achieved! I am charmed with the audio edition but I am not very good because of it ask for help you.

Thank you very much!

[seeyouintheeighties]

again.. supurb.. whats the synth with the red sides in the background.. is it a moog?

[Hanni13579]

Nope. It's a CME UF7 master keyboard with a Roland V-Synth XT standing on it. :P

[Shanai64]

what is name this sound???? sorry my english is so bad.......give me the name of this sounds.......ezequiel

[Hanni13579]

The names are written in the video. O.o As well as the songs. So what do you want to know?

[Shanai64]

I want to know if I can put the patch of korg x5d in my roland xp10.

[Hanni13579]

Only by re-programming. Direct transfer is not possible.

[peter47a]

No you cannot. You need to find a way to either convert or recreate them on your XP10.

[simontristeza]

I don't believe in this sounds... Awesome :D

[ragidly]

hey man where did you get you effects of x5d i have a korgx5d but i dont how to combined effects like yours...give me some idea man...

[Hanni13579]

The only effects are Delay (with integrated EQ) and Reverb. And these are of very good quality in the X5D.

[Blackinsifuns]

heyy fat sounds:D You're a genious:D I have just bought a KORG X50... And i was wondering if you could help me with a question... Can My KORG Create fat leads like Wildstylez - Pleasure? Coz my KORG doesent sound that FAT:P Tnx:D

[YuzoTibi]

Hallo JayB, dank dir habe ich mein Setup heute um einen X5D erweitert! :) Habe einen in Bonn gefunden über eBay, in sehr gutem Zustand für 170€. Passt, oder? Hat der X5D eigentlich nur 100 program slots für Sounds neben den GM-patches? Oder sind noch irgendwo die factory presets? Beste Grüße Yuzo

[xoio]

Have to say, they all sound rather samey? - Korg Limitations?

Whereas the AN1X seems to not only be able to create better buzzy trance sounds, but has an altogether more varied sounding palette anyway?

[Hanni13579]

I use the combinations mostly for all the Supersaw stuff, which is mostly represented in HandsUp leads. My program patches are far more different.

[xoio]

cool!

[Blackinsifuns]

is those presets with the synthesizer orginally? Or did u make them yourself?:D

[Hanni13579]

The synth is from 1995. So guess what.

And read the description. ;)

[ILMBerlin]

yeah und das holt er einfach so aus nem X5D raus!! boa ganz andere welt im gegensatz zu den factory sounds.... ich habe es auch geschaft auf deb Korg i30 (gleiche tonerzeugung wie der X5D) solche sounds zu programmieren.. einfach hammer!

[Hanni13579]

Danke. Möglich macht das ganze ja eigentlich nur die viel zu langsame CPU, die nciht in der Lage ist, alle Oszillatoren phasengleich zu starten. Klingt also immer wie ein echter Unisono-Modus mit freilaufenden Oszillatoren.

[ILMBerlin]

haha also ein gefake unison .... wieviel osc kann man beim x5d gleichzeichtig abspieln??

im combi-modus 8 oder ??

habe jetzt eine nagel neue workstation von korg ..... kling jetzt noch brutal, extremer und einfach nur FETT! :D

[Hanni13579]

Da jede Voice aus 2 Oszillatoren bestehen kann, ist die maximal Anzahl 16 Oszillatoren. Partytime besteht aus 14 Sägezähnen. Ein weißes Rauschen macht aber auch viel breite aus. Leider wirkt sich das alles stark auf die Polyphonie aus.

[ILMBerlin]

wow, aslo der x5d kann 8 programs gleichzeitig im combimode öffnen, hät ich nicht gedacht. beim i30hd sind es nur 6 osc gleichzeitig, dafür aber bessere quali :D wleches white noise benutzt du?? (LP oder normal)

[Hanni13579]

Naja, bessere Quali... Was willste bei 32 kHz Samples schon erwarten? :D

Ich nutze das White Noise NT (no tune) in der 4 Fuß Oktave.

[ILMBerlin]

beim korg i30 sind effekte(2 effekproz.) und multisamples (18MB) halt mehr, beim x5d waren es glaub 8MB(bei dem nich sicher)

aber das ist trotzdem krass was du mit dem x5d machst.

ein kleiner virus oder so ..;)

[HanselTrancer]

i HATE Commercial Trance / Hands Up!:( It sickens me, same with Hardstyle^^

[Hanni13579]

I'm okay with that music. As long as I'm not forced to listen to it for more than 20 minutes. However, it's fun to create such sounds on a rather unconventional synth. ;)

[Sukey1981]

man was soll man denn dazu noch sagen. übel geil. hammer.

[Laihoistheman]

whats up with your site?

[torr8d]

hey i have four of these keyboards and a n364 how can i do that its so cool please tell me

[dragonsagoth666]

Man, you did a good work, but I would like to advise you something: all those combis sound supersawish. It's getting old. Why not using X5D's synthesis for some more innovative sounds? These sounds can be done on most modern synths, so it ain't that impressive. Too bad I don't have a cam, I would like to show you some of my own patches for this synth.

Try to be more original, instead of trying to nail sounds that already exist!

Keep it up!

[Hanni13579]

Two things you didn't take care of: 1) These are far not all combinations and 2) there's still the program patches, where Supersaw Sounds aren't possible.

[dragonsagoth666]

Hehe, I know, I've seen all your videos. Many sounds "overlap" on different synths you have. To me it sounds like you could get it all on one... If you get my point.

Anyways, to tell you the truth, I'm not in this kind of stuff at all, I'm a power-prog metal guy and I like great sound diversity. And X5D is well capable of that. I have added you to my MSN so I hope we'll get to chat sometime :D Cheers!

[allerter100]

But you have to look at it, thats old and it have a play toy look a little bit. It don't look like the type of keyboard that will have those type of sounds to it.

[Shtef22]

Thanks to your videos I am going to buy an X5D synth! :P

[winnebago6]

great job on the sounds,I have tried downloading the sound bank for the x5d but cant seem to get it at all,would you be able to help me out?

[Hanni13579]

I recently added a point to my homepage, called "How to tranfer sounds to your X5D". It's right under the description of the X5D sounds. I hope this helps you as a first step.

[winnebago6]

thats great,il give it a try when i get home,thanks alot.

[MM6Logan]

Nice 1 buddy!!! =D

You might want to put X5DR In the tags as i can confirm these sounds work perfect on the X5DR =D

Keep up the good work mate!

Any sign on the Sandstorm Lead?

[Hanni13579]

Will be the surprise in the new program patches video that is not yet recorded. ;)

[MM6Logan]

Legend!!! =D
