    Thank you so much for this tutorial. Beyond grateful as I sit here high as a kite on an edible on 4/20/21 years after you posted this and I am your student learning this synth for the first time getting lost in the sounds that make our music. Sound design is a beautiful thing thank you Teacher.

    This is excellent. Thank you very much! I sat here and played along with mine while you were going through the examples, pausing every known again or rewinding as need be, but it definitely gets you right inside the guts of it and I feel like I'm gaining more appreciation for the machine.
    Thank you once again! :-)

    Thanx very much for this, Jacques! I got a MicroKorg for Christmas and started here, but it was too much for someone that knew absolutely nothing about synthesizers, so I unsubscribed. I did a lot of reading, watched other generic videos and now have "re-subscribed". It makes total sense to me now that I've spent some time with the synth first and is a HUGE addition to the owner's manual. I have all of them queued up!

    I actually appreciate the fact that you are fumbling through it... I have bought one and am waiting for it to arrive.... I am not a keyboardist. I am a bassist but I was looking for something to add to background track noise and arpeggios into the composition of my writing (in no way a hip-hop, trance, or "dress up and use pacifiers" musician -nothing wrong with that)... I honestly love the OLD SCHOOL - DEVO- KRAFTWERK sounds.... they don't need to make you dance at a rave to be cool ;-)

    • @Mamotreco
      @Mamotreco  8 лет назад +1

      Yes and no. You have two possible layers. Some sounds have a single layer with all the parameters possible and up to four note polyphony. Other sounds can have two layers but you have to program them independently. You cannot load in presets into the layers, you have to program them in manually. Two layer sounds, possibly because of they more hardware intensive, only have two polyphony tops.

      You can stop the light from blinking by setting the Clock (under the MIDI section) to EXT. As long as there is no external MIDI clock incoming it will not blink.

      Sorry, but are you trying to use the microkorg as a MIDI controller or do you want to do direct recording from your synth to the computer?

    • @zero-jee
      @zero-jee 9 лет назад

      Direct record I think. I don't know what midi controller is.

    • @RED_indiemusic
      @RED_indiemusic 9 лет назад +1

      Ok. For direct recording to your computer, the type of cable you want would be a 1/4" to 1/4" cable, the same type you would use for a guitar/bass to an amp. Although you would need an adapter to convert the 1/4" to a mini audio jack so you would use your microphone port on your computer. This is just one way of recording and usually the cheapest way, but I cannot promise that you would have good quality. The other way that may be costly would be using an audio sound interface that connects via USB. You connect your 1/4" cable to the interface and use the DAW (digital audio workstation) of your choice. What DAW are you planning to use to record the MicoKorg (Audacity, Cubase, Pro Tools, Reason)? Please let me know.

    • @Mamotreco
      @Mamotreco  9 лет назад

      To carry the sound or to carry note information? For the first you need probably an 1/4" to 1/8" jack cable or you need a converter jack at either end to make the connection. For the second of you only have a computer and no audio or midi interface then you need a a USB to 5 pin DIN MIDI cable

    • @Mamotreco
      @Mamotreco  10 лет назад +1

      Fruity Loops or another DAW would be better. This is a monotimbral (can play one sound program at a time) synth with a four note polyphony. It's not a keyboard workstation like a Korg Trinity or M50 or Kronos / Yamaha MOTIF series etc. I suggest mastering software like Fruity Loops first (with a cheap MIDI keyboard controller) and then you will know whether you need this or not.

    Hi jacques, was wondering if you could help me with a sync issue- when I set MIDI clock to EXT, this seems to disable the keyboard and arpeggiator. How am I supposed to put a pattern in? Trying to sync with a DSI tempest. The channels are set correctly on the Mikrokorg and tempest btw.

    • @Mamotreco
      @Mamotreco  10 лет назад

      You need to have the tempest send out a MIDI clock signal to the Microkorg. Otherwise the the Microkorg will do nothing while waiting for clock signal to arrive. Best of luck.

    Great tutorial video you have obviously studied this which is great and a nice bit of kit , I'm wondering if you can help me , I'm after a tone that the Kings of Leon use at the beginning of fans when they play live , any chance you might know how I can achieve this sound , it's almost like baba o'riley but just the first couple of seconds of it
    Great vids and keep up the great work 😃😃

      +Jacques Mongrel ok I just got a chance to listen to that sound. You probably want to set the oscillators to square, filter them a little, have very short envelope and use the arpeggiator switching between time divisions.

    Would this work without a control board and with a simple macbook computer? Or even acoustically?

    • @Mamotreco
      @Mamotreco  10 лет назад

      You could run the audio from the outs to the audio in of your macbook to record it ... yes (in modern macbooks you can set the headphone jack to be an audio input). You just need a cable that goes from the 1/4" TRS outputs on the microkorg to the 1/8" stereo TRS input on the mac. Only thing is you will have to monitor your recording through the macbook speakers. If possible you could use an audio interface which will provide a better recording experience.

    Does the MicroKorg XL have the same capabilities? At least by a basic sound engineering point of view.

    • @Mamotreco
      @Mamotreco  7 лет назад +1

      Yes it should. The Microkorg XL is essentially an updated microkorg sound engine in a new case design.

    Hi. Can you tell me please if the microkorg has a pitch envelope or something that can be used as a pitch envelope?

    • @Mamotreco
      @Mamotreco  7 лет назад

      +jcikhop unfortunately, I don't have my Microkorg any more so I cannot check. Off the top of my head, it does not have a dedicated pitch envelope. You may be able to route the amp or filter env to control pitch using the modulation slots. If I were you, I would check the manual which can easily be downloaded as pdf to see if that is possible.
