- Upright Piano is a free VST piano plugin based on a set of piano samples recorded by Rudi Fiasco. There are a fairly low amount of features available in this plugin, but the quality is very bright and clean, especially for a free plugin. The plugin features four sampled notes per octave and six velocity layers per note.
- The first workstation synthesizer and pioneer of the PCM tone generation, the M1 defined the sound of the late ’80s and early ’90s. This digital version offers that same distinctive resonance and tonal character offered by KORG’s trailblazing voicing technology.
The M1 is a 1980's rompler with expansion capabilities. It was extremely popular and was the first commercially successful ROM-based synthesizer. See also the samples of the Korg M3R, a stripped-down 1U rackmount version with a similar sound set.

Sensualsounds sound set info
This commercial sound set which has been sold now is donation ware (5 … 10 €).
Sensualsounds from Olaf Posdzech were created to provide the user with analog feeling. The goal of this set are expressive sounds that greatly react on how you play.
Also this set gives partial General MIDI compatibility to a M1 synthesizer (General MIDI sounds, General MIDI drum sets and a special General MIDI combination).
File | Description |
---|---|
M1gm1 (MIDI, Sysex) M1gm2 (MIDI, Sysex) (2× 100 programs) | Two sound banks making available most standard General MIDI sounds for KORG M1 (except some special effects). (Detailed list) This sound set contains |
GMmix (100 programs + 100 Combinations) | A best of selection from the soundsets GM1 + GM2, fitting most significant General MIDI patch numbers in the range from 01 … 100. Less significant patch numbers are provided with additional usefull sounds. (Detailed list) |
GM drum sets | Two drumsets making available most standard General MIDI drum sounds for KORG M1. (Detailed list) |
The sound sets and global data are included as Standard MIDI files and as sysex files.
With a step by step guide how the sounds can be loaded into M1.
Background
1. General MIDI
When KORG M1 workstation was born, no one thought about a standard sound set. Some years later the the General MIDI Standard has been established.
General Midi has two main advantages:
- You find the same instrument (like Strings or a Rhodes piano) at the same patch number, regardless the synthesizer you use.
- You can play General Midi files at different synthesizers and the voices will use the proper sounds in most cases.
2. Sensual sounds
Many factory presets of the KORG M1 sound a bit death and digital.
But the M1 the has many possibilities to take influence on a sound character by the way you play it (velocity, after touch, joystick, modulations).
Sensualsounds use the expression capabilities of the M1. They give you a very analog playing experience and expressive sounds.
In fact I decided to never give away my M1 since I have these sounds.
Highlights in this soundsets
1. Really sensual sounds
Watch the change in sound expression when playing with different attacks, pressing aftertouch, pulling joystick!
Try out this examples:
GrandKeith | Still the best dynamic M1 grand piano I ever heard. Watch the difference in sound and attack when changing from soft pp to hard ff. |
El. Grand | Reminds to 80's Yamaha electric grand, warm and full electric sound |
Superorg 3 | Multiple church organ with rich living harmonics and nice different sounds when playing with different velocities. p: soft registers 16' + 5 2/3' f: sharp 16' + 8' + 5 2/3' + 2' |
Bari Sax | Very tricky! You wouldn't believe that this sample was in your M1 before. Play it in lower tunes. |
Saw Wave | Fat sawtooth! Aftertouch or velocity add more sharpness. Joystick down adds a rising sawtooth filter envelope. |
Eyes Rain | It's raining something strange |
SoundTrack | Gentle strings Joystick down -> rhythmic pattern. |
For more information see the complete descriptions of the soundsets.
2. Classic vintage sounds
I've included some of my own favorite vintage sounds in this collection (mellotron, wurlitzer, electric grand piano, yes pad, Zappa .. )
3. General Midi compatibility
All sounds are in General MIDI standard tune, and they are stored at the default standard program numbers.
The included M1 factory presets were re-engineered to match General Midi standard.
Guide: Loading patches
Loading the patches into your M1 synthesizer
Attention: Before loading any new sounds into your instrument you should back-up your own sounds.
You can do this by recording a MIDI data dump with a sequencer software and saving the result as a standard MIDI file (*.mid).
In the sequencer any MIDI filters must be switched off (enable record and play of Sysex data).
Adjust the KORG M1 Global menu as follows:
Now start recording in the sequencer.
Start sending a sysex dump ('ALL DATA') via the Global menu of the instrument.
When the display shows up 'completed' you can stop recording. Save the result as standard MIDI file ('mysounds.mid').
IMPORTANT:
Test integrity of the saved file before loading other sounds!
This is how you can do that. Change a letter of the last patch name (program 99). Save the changes. (The sound remains the same, only the name has changed.)
Check: Chose patch 99. Is the new name visible?
Now you can send back your data recorded previously from the sequencer back to the synthesizer. This is done by simply playing the MIDI file.
After receiving this data the name of patch 99 should be the original again. (You have to recall the patch.)
If this worked fine you can start sending new sound banks to the synthesizer in the same manner.
Loading patches into KORG Legacy M1 / KORG M1 Le software synthesizer
Loading of sysex files is accessed via the File button on the left, but not via the File menu.
Loading GMmix Soundbank (programs + combinations)
1. select on the left side: File > Import > All data..
2. then chose gm_all.syx
The sounds (programs and combinations) are then loaded into the 'Card' slots User1 and User2.
User1 has the first 50 patches, User2 the second half (50..99).
In Combination mode User1 and User2 have the combinations, that are using these patches.
Loading GM1 and GM1 Soundbank (programs only)
To load the General midi compatible banks (gm1 + gm2) into the Card slots:
select: File > Import > programs..
then chose m1_gm1.syx or
then chose m1_gm2.syx
Loading sound banks into Card slots 'User3' and 'User4'
The slow way:
1. Select a name of any Program in any Card slot or User slot, right click > Copy
2. Go into the desired user bank, select a progam number, right click > Paste
The fast way:
No way known to copy a complete user bank into User3 or User4.
Accessing combinations:
On top of the M1 click the COMBI button. This changes M1 into Combination mode.
Now press the BROWSER button or click into the grey field left from INSTRUMENT on the left side.
Now a table appears where you can select sounds (combinations). To access User presets you have to click CARD and than the USER1 button.
Combinations 0…49 are stored in the USER1 slot, Combinations 50…99 in the USER2 slot.
Accessing Programs:
On top of the M1 click the PROG button. This changes M1 into Program mode (single sound).
Now press the BROWSER button or click into the grey field left from INSTRUMENT on the left side.
Now a table appears where you can select programs. To access User presets you have to click CARD and than the USER1 button.
Programs 0…49 are stored in the USER1 slot, Programs 50…99 in the USER2 slot.
What are the limits? What will my M1 not do?
There are some limitations.
- M1 can store only 100 programs in a soundbank. (General MIDI is up to 128.)
- M1 is displaying sound numbers one number below the program change instruction. So GM sound #01 (grand piano) will be displayed as '00', GM sound 100 (Atmosphere) will be displayed as '99'.
- M1 can play only 16 voices simultaneously, which is reduced when voices are programmed as double sounds (marked in the patch lists with '*')
- M1 can play only 8 different MIDI channels simultaneously in one combination (General MIDI demands 16 channels).
- M1 can store only 29 different drums in a drumset. General MIDI drumsets have more drums.
Note:
The KORG M1 softeware synthesizer can play a much greater number of voices simultanously which only depends from the power of your computer.
KORG M1 Technical data and links
KORG M1 Technical data
The Korg M1 has a very unique sound character. This results from the combination of its limited frequency range of 12 kHz and the good quality of some samples. Also the effects section with some fine reverbs, chorus and an exciter module helps a lot. Even some of the later KORG synthesizers are not able to replace M1 sounds. They are unique.
