Rumski Forum - Korg announces the Legacy Collection

Quote:

Korg has unveiled the Legacy Collection - Digital Edition which consists of updates to the Wavestation and MDE-X plug-ins plus the addition of a virtual recreation of their "classic" M1 synth from the late eighties / early nineties.

The sound engine of the Korg M1 is now available as an eight-part multi-timbral virtual instrument, and has been brought up to date with many new features. Topping that list includes a powerful resonant filter and dual Insert effects.

In addition to the PCM and Program/Combination data of the M1/M1EX, all of the data from the 19 optional PCM/Program cards is included, along with new drum samples and entirely new Programs - providing more than 2,700 preset sounds.

Wavestation v1.5

The Wavestation software synthesizer, part of the original Korg Legacy Collection, now advances to version 1.5, adding all six of the highly-acclaimed optional cards (more than 250 Performances, 250 Patches, 250 PCM waveforms and 150 Wave Sequences).

MDE-X v1.2

With the arrival of version 1.2, the MDE-X multi-effect plug-in is now RTAS compatible.

All three elements of the Korg Legacy Collection - Digital Edition support RTAS, VST and Audio Units plug-in formats for Windows XP and Mac OS X.

Product information is currently only available on Korg's Japanese website so info is a little hazy... the release date looks to be October 1st (in Japan at least) and upgrades will be available for current Legacy Collection owners.

NOTE: The software is now copy-protected by a USB key (Dongle). In order to use the software, you will need a computer that can be connected to the Internet.
