UTILIZATION

clean Korg easy configuration. It is logical

SOUNDS

The rescue! when I read the reviews on the M50, I tend to think that my ears have fallen during the night.
Simply put, it is a disaster. Already, it is soft knee, no punch worthy of a band of octogenarians.
Having been the owner of a Korg X5 there ... houuuu .... more than fifteen years, well I have not been homesick! they are the same sounds! 2013 How can we still flogging stuff too outdated?
The pianos are average (at best), the Fender Rhodes nullissimes (well, let's say they are 20 years old at the very least!), The synthetic strings are to death, the tiny drums, brass and a level of sound card with three balls ... not leaving some asthmatics leads and some nice tablecloths ... if so ... anyway.
To have a Yamaha Motif ES, Korg I say (I do not even talk about Roland with sounds dating double those Korg) should regain control. They are the creators of the M1 anyway! They stayed there. The fender or Reason pianos are gorgeous, modern and realistic, as the violins, brass. And especially with a huge dynamic.

OVERALL OPINION

Tried following the advice on this forum, and sound on the headphones .... nothing works. Probably a keyboard to nostalgic sounds of the 80 or 90 without any modern or even pleasure in contrast to a vintage sound. Take a simple test if you have the opportunity to test the Fender Rhodes M50 and that of Reason .... it is final!
Probably best editing capabilities, but starting from a bank prehistoric sounds, it is unusable for me. I wonder how you can pay this crap (in Cygnus) the price of a pattern? this will remain a mystery!
