It seems like Korg never runs out of ideas for products for us to get excited about – even if it’s a chance to “look back,” so to speak. Now 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 M1, which, as we all know, went on to become the best-selling keyboard of all time.
The M1 sound engine has been brought up-to-date with many new features. In addition to the onboard PCM and Program/Combination data of the M1, all of the data from the 19 optional PCM/Program cards is included for a total of more than 2,700 preset sounds. The Wavestation software synthesizer now advances to version 1.5, adding all six of the optional sound cards, giving us more than 250 Performances, 250 Patches, 250 PCM waveforms and 150 Wave Sequences. The MDE-X multi-effect plug-in has been upgraded to version 1.2 and 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. Upgrades will be available for current Legacy Collection owners.
