通过软件重生
音乐工作站M1
M1于1988年发布，是一款划时代的合成器，定义了80年代末和90年代的音乐场景。其基于高质量PCM的数字多效合成系统具有划时代的独特声音。此外，作为最初的音乐工作站“一体机”，它配备了8轨音序器，彻底改变了各地音乐家的作曲和制作风格。
KORG Collection M1 V2是2005年M1软件的升级版，并针对现代生产环境进行了改进。我们添加了备受期待的高分辨率和可扩展的界面。预设声音包括所有3300个程序，包括来自扩展ROM卡的程序，通过最新软件作为插件提供M1的传奇声音。
人工智能合成系统的完整再现
M1配备了使用PCM波形和数字效果处理器的ai（高级集成）合成系统。虽然许多预设声音都是基于PCM声音的，但它们不仅具有这些声音的真实性，而且具有独特的发音特征，这向我们展示了KORG发声技术一直以来的先进性。
在KORG Collection M1中，PCM数据提供了原始M1的库。对于硬件，我们分析了原始设计的电路图，并在软件中完全复制了电路，直到最后一个细节。对M1有全面了解的工程师们进行了仔细的调整，以获得原始乐器的声音，这是不能通过简单地对原始声音进行采样来获得的。我们还设计了iM1，使程序和组合完全独立——这在原始设备上是不可能的。
Reborn through software
Music Workstation M1
The M1, released in 1988, is an epoch-making synthesizer that defined the music scene of the late 80’s and the 90s. Its synthesis system with digital multi-effects, based on high-quality PCM, featured a unique sound which was epoch-defining. In addition, as the original music workstation “all-in-one unit”, it came with an 8-track sequencer, drastically changing the composing and production style of musicians everywhere.
The KORG Collection M1 V2 is an upgrade of the M1 software from 2005, and has been refined for modern production environments. We added the much requested high-resolution and scalable interface. The preset sounds include all 3,300 programs, including those from the expansion ROM cards, giving the legendary sounds of the M1 through the latest software as a plug-in.
A complete reproduction of the ai synthesis system
The M1 was equipped with the ai (advanced integrated) synthesis system that used PCM waveforms and digital effects processor. While many of the preset sounds were based on PCM sounds, they not only possessed the realness of those sounds but also a unique sounding character, which shows us how advanced the KORG voicing technology has always been.
In the KORG Collection M1, the PCM data provides the library of the original M1. For the hardware, we analyzed the circuit diagrams of the original design, and completely replicated the circuitry in software down to the last detail. Engineers with an exhaustive knowledge of the M1 made careful adjustments in order to obtain the sound of the original instrument, something that cannot be obtained simply by sampling the original sounds. We’ve also designed the iM1 so that programs and combinations are entirely independent – a capability not possible on the original unit. |
