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!

@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.

@KorgUSAVideos Thanks, Did that, but the copy from program only allows me to select a program, not another combination.

[KorgUSAVideos]

@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.

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.

[KorgUSAVideos]

@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.

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!!!

@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)

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. =)

What if I want to repeat the same combi during a live performance? Do I have to write the combi in several free spaces and waste slots with the same sound? ( I want to use the pedal to change programs)

[ch40z7h30ry]

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?

@SliperFail Try the Global Settings.

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?

[robbiepalmer1]

@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?

What speakers are you using?
