I like to think Korg put Universe as Patch 0 as a deliberate flex. Imagine getting this keyboard when it first came out in 1988, plugging it in and turning it on for the first time, and that's the first sound you're greeted with.
Feauxtasia.
I did and it was amazing, like when I saw Star Wars back in 1977. Never heard a preset like it and I was sold immediately! Ended up selling it in favour of the Triton and now everyone wants an M1….held on to all my instruments since then.
that literally how it Synth companies think.
was used in a techno song called "the abyss" in the 90s
That's what happened to me. Went to the shop in '89, played the M1, comparing it to some Roland synth (D20, I think), going back to the M1, playing some more… and at the end of the afternoon there really was no comparison with the Roland, and I ended up paying serious money (being a student back then) for a synth that's still in this house to this day. It was not just the "00 Universe" like sounds (although they did indeed help sell the synth), but also the sax, the organ, the different drum kits… Scrolling through the presets was a continuous feel of "does this machine ever *stop* or can it really do everything?" Of course compared to modern day synths it's pretty limited, but back then it was a box full of never-heard-before magic.
Whatta heck? ...A Blue Shirt! ...Love the M1-Sounds!
blue socks too
Also a fan of Korg M1… and 01w
Fantastic show Mr. Doc! Blue note is veeeery goood. 🧢
This was the first thing i thought too. Almost did not recognize him.
- Right ? 🤣 But still Claudio awesomeness. So we know that his powers are not in his shirt 😀
I bought an M1 after watching your first video about them. Absolutely love it. Such nostalgia.
My mate had one of these 1st time around, think he got it used for sure but in that decade.....awesome!
Adding the Rhodes makes every patch sound phenomenal! That and the talent!
Putting the Rhodes on there is almost cheating. ❤
@@xlat808 For real! 😂
So trueeeee
This is the sound of my childhood! From Enya to Enigma and all the House anthems... TV shows and countless movie soundtracks.. Seinfield!!! LOL Love this!
Enya moztly used a d50 :) but yea
If you’re a Queen fan like me this vid is great for spotting sounds from the Miracle and Innuendo albums. “Ooh/Ahh” is the patch used for “I’m going slightly mad” for instance
I'm pretty sure that M1 was only used in Innuendo, while Roland D50 was the main synth in The Miracle.
@@feliperojascno… the M1 is all over The Miracle!! The pads on Bijou as well
Thanks for taking me down the memory lane to my teens when my parents bought the M1 and my journey to the heaven of keyboards and synths began!
That house cut was beast!
Long live the Korg M1.
After watching these great videos you don't realise how much these amazing machines were used during the 80's and 90's where I grew up. Love seeing an old Top of the Pops and seeing the back of a Yamaha DX7 or M1 Korg through the dry ice! Thanks for bringing these cool sounds back to life Doc ❤
And the M50

I've owned a Korg M1 since I was a teenager (about 30 years ago). My piano teacher picked it out with me and I bought it second-hand through a classified ad. Two years ago, I replaced all the micro switches because there were fewer and fewer numbers and so on to set. I love it. Thx for the video.
Did you by any chance go on vacation to chateau de fereyrolles in the south of France and play piano on the piano at the opposite camping there?
I was not watching and just listening .. when you switched to the Rhodes at 656 I actually yelled out .. THAT AINT THE M1!!!!!!! Love your vids Dr. Mixxxxx
My M1 sitting behind me is crying "fix me ! fix me!" need to sort a few of the keys out. Love the sounds this thing makes.
"...in un tripudio di miccette..." Bravo, great tribute to Elio. M1 was my first, serious, synth in the distant 90s. Unique and unforgettable.
The Universe patch. Simply beautiful. The Choir sounds on the M1 have a very ethereal, gothic quality to them.
Of all the synthesizers, the Korg M1 is one of my favorites. Its contribution to House Music throughout the 1990s is impressive. I've never heard the presets like this, individually. Someone said in the comments that they're sounds that remind us of our childhood, and it's true. In almost every preset as you played, I could recognize a House track. The saddest thing for me is that a friend has an M1 and wants to sell it, but at the moment I don't have the money to buy it. Anyway, thank you for doing this video, amazing job. Greetings from Brazil.
Love u, Doctor Mix! You've literally been my synth guru. I absolutely learn a lot from you and I love the passion you put on the music. Thanks for discovering me the great album Valerian
Lovely sounds of M1 🔥
It really is a mega deep dive, what a synthesiser
Best workstation of the 90'. I still have mine.
I love this. I had an M1 rack. Now I use the Korg M1 app on my ipad. Brings back memories. Thank you.
More of this kind of videos plz! All presets + Dr Mix playing great combination!
34:03 This is the spirit of music.
Bravo! The Korg iM1 app does a faithful job recreating the library.
The Piano 16 patch was a mainstay for the Johnny Marr/Bernard Sumner Electronic LP.
Awesome!!!!!!! I love it. Crazy sounds. Played very professionally!!! Thanks Claudio!!!!! 🙂
Name a more iconic duo than Korg M1 Piano and house music 🎹🏠
That's what I used on my Willie Clayton tour, Korg M1 and Fender Rhodes-1993, the proffesional sound available in those days, as analogs weren't for sale in my area.
- Awesome. I loved the wide selection of songs you played. Brings back memories with all these iconic sounds of the M1.
I was just going through the presets on my virtual M1 earlier today, what a classic! 🔥
I think I am going to have to start a Go Clone Me fund raiser so we can clone you because we need you to keep on jamming like this. for all eternity. Keep on rockin' brother. We love it!
You are my favourite jammer Doctor .... love you man ! .. dont need latest kit to make great sounds
Grazie Claudio, sempre un piacere vederti in action! Ho un M1, adesso l’userò di più!😊
Awesome vid! Such a deep dive.
OMG, Thanks so much, and Yes !! #Part2 pls the M1 sounds so phantastic ....
I love long videos. And the Korg M1
Totally agree!
Fantastic improvisation in the vibes.
❤🧡💛💚💙💜💙💚💛🧡❤
Claudio!
Tears! - In! - My! - Eyes!
Thank you soooo much for this video!
❤🧡💛💚💙💜💙💚💛🧡❤
Greeat sounds and great skills! Waiting for part 2 =)
Thank you for an absolutely amazing walk through the KORG M1 really fantastic trip back through sounds 🎉 Amazing
God I love the M1, and those renditions of “I Will Survive” were amazing!!
That takes me back used these sounds for years now have the Korg collection and a Nautilus so the sounds are still with me the hardware long gone , nostalgia brought to life by the doctor!
My opinion I never go crazy for m1 but you dear doc play all with great attitude and make all cool...love from Italy❤
I really love these deep long dives. Makes me feel like im the one exploring the classic synths
I can't wait to see _Doctor Mix: The Movie_ 🎉
4:20 People from Ibiza! Sandy Marton. Me thinks.
15:40 Quando, Quando, Quando... I found this song through a fun TV show that among other stuff had skits about a class C duo who played at service stations. BTW, I like the M1 piano sounds more than the DX7 ones.
19:41 Isn't that the "She's Homeless" song?
21:00 Vangelis, Hymne...
This man’s joy is just palpable. You can literally feel it through the screen, and that’s damn special if you ask me 🥹
I have a Korg M1 myself And it is loads of fun!
You crack me up man. Your videos are so good! We would love to see a video on the Korg 01/W 🙏
*Fender Rhodes* on standby, then bring on the "twidley" bits! Great jamming to show what the *Korg M1* was and still is. Love the closing effects jam. Sounds a little like *Steve Kinsey,* and for me that's just fine. 👌
40:10 mix was so busy but that filter tucked everything under so beautifully and gave you the needed space. ❤🎉
I remember "Organ 1" sounded great when you dialled in the M1's overdrive setting and set it to maximum! The M1's sounds are also all over the Apple Macintosh game, Spectre. That "whoosh" sound was whenever you collected a flag.
5:48 In un tripudio di miccetteeee. Supergiovane
So nice to hear Italian classics as well as Gypsy Woman, Petya and the Wolf.. cool vid
I have my iMac sitting on top of my M1r. What a great showcase of what you can do with old tech.
Brilliant all my favorite bits of the 80s, best wishes from NZ
I’m excited to still have my Korg Trinity with the optional PBS card that allowed me to store the M1 sounds in the synth. Such fun and memorable sounds to play and it makes the Trinity so much more valuable.
Amazing Claudio! I grew up with my mom using one of these in her many bands back in the day! Good stuff bro!
Fretless is so beautiful ❤
Korg M1, O1W and X3. Those where the days! The piano riff that is stuck in my head is the one from Opus III - It's a fine day
I remember playing the M1 for the first time soon after it was launched (British Music Fair in London, 1988) and was blown away by an ethereal patch; almost certainly Universe I guess. Didn’t play an M1 again though for another 10 years when I finally got round to adding one. Great keyboard; I’ve got three now (only because they turn up very cheap from time to time).
Dr Mix, you look good in blue too, brings out your Italian swag.
god prog i07 symphonic speaks to me on such a bonkers level. i feel like i just commented on a different dr mix video about what a sucker i am for 80's 90's rom strings and brings me right back to childhood memories of 90's squaresoft snes games
You should do a similar one on the Korg T-series. Same engine, 2x waveforms, even fatter sound.
I played it in 1992. Legend
Ah love the video en the M1 Doc! I have the rack module and I will restore it soon! Thnx Dr. Mix! 🙂
Patch 07 for the win! Epic video as usual :-)
Oh wow taking me back to my childhood with these sounds. I cringe at how horrible it sounds now but they were fire back then 😂. I love this spirit in which this video was done along with the nice jams.
Claudio, sei proprio bravo!!!! Complimenti, ti seguo sempre!!!!
thanks for the little music from vangelis wonderful Doctormix
I love your improvisation videos like this, more please. 😊
Dear Dr.Mix you make a song out of any sound, and I like it 😎🤩👍👍👍
This brings back memories... I had the big daddy to this, the 88 Key Korg T1. Good days.
That Piano! It can be cheesy or good! I remember Jon Lord from Deep Purple on tour in 1987 using and M1 upon his Hammond organ and during his solos It sounded really good.
I have the more recent 05R/w little box from 1994, a little more options but the clarity and punch of M1, M3R.... Can't be beaten.
Thanks by heart for this fantastic video!
The kits on the M1 are massively underrated. When you start digging there are some really punchy drums, and the gated versions are ❤. I'm slowly collcting the card sets for mine, and there's some great stuff hidden on those too.
From your playing i can hear a lot of classic! One i recognized was peter and the wolf by prokofiev. Love to see more people loving proper synth music and Classical music which gave a lot to contemporary music
Blue? You can't wear a blue shirt! Lol looks great 👍
Great video. I love these old digital synths. For anyone who dreams of getting an M1 but can't, for whatever reason, Korg Collection offers a very accurate VST with 8 stereo outputs. It's pretty awesome.
Yes, but the VST sound, alas, is not the same, I do not want to play on such an instrument, it does not sound fully identical!
@@DIPProjectIOFFICIALCHANNELThankfully , theres all those real M1s in good condition to choose from. Its like theres enough for everyone to have one
I love my M1, doesn’t get used as much as it should but I’ll never sell it. Thanks for the fun trip down memory lane!
Superb video!
Some fantastic workhorse sounds on the M1. So much you can do with just the one instrument, for its day.
Shame some key instruments don't sound real enough- like acoustic and electric pianos and organs.
I know this clip was about presets - the way you loop & layer would make me want to get one if I didn't have 2 already!
But I found the editing side incredibly powerful too, even just using combinations of saw and pulse waves.
21:23 very Genesis-sounding!
Thanks for posting this!! My fav vid of yours and my favourite keyboard too. So good. It’s my Time Machine 😅
I like this sounds mix, especially the second half!
that Rodhes sounds like heaven ....
Amazing gets good sounds. Thank you for sharing.❤
I don't have the M1 but one of it's siblings. He x5dr. Which has a lot of recycled m1 patchs . Great synths awesome teamed up with a Roland D series ❤
X5D/r is a magic little box! 64 voices of polyphony at the time (around 1995?) and very deep editing. You can make It sound analog too! In the 90's a guy whose name is Frank Carvalho made a free set of Hammond presets for it and the older 05R/w. But the last has only 32 polyphony voices.
Nice New Blue Shirt!!! and what an entertainer Claudio!! greetings from Chile
The "Good & Bad" flutes like preset frm 37:50 is definitelly reference to "Il buono, il brutto, il cattivo." by Ennio Morricone theme played by flutes and ocarina ;)
Claudio I love your performance 🙂
I miss my M1 it still sounds so good after all these years.
Still capable of being the "lead k.b." in a band. If you add a 61 key USB controller and a laptop with the KORG legacy collection,you are unstoppable.
@@copperstaterocketguy1640 There is a huge difference between a hardware M1 and the software one.... 16 voices versus 256, 100 programs versus unlimited, isn't much of a comparison... It took years for the M1 to turn into the workstation it was advertised as. The hardware version was never really a workstation by anyone's standard other than Korg's. I owned an M1R, and I rarely used it because it wasn't really that useful. Unless collecting dust defines useful...
A famous italian prog rock artist, Gianni Leone, leader of Il Balletto di Bronzo, has on tour his Hammond, a Roland Super JX and the M1. He pulls the hell out of it!!
Right on Time, Black Box. 😊
Thanks for this great video, Claudio.
Sometimes you just forget what good things you have standing behind the door.
What an amazing synth😎! OK, not all presets, perhaps 🤫
"Hi, the snare in *Man in the Mirror* by Michael Jackson is an EPROM from the LinnDrum LM2, which could be purchased separately. The specific name of that EPROM is Snare 23. I have that sound, and I've also used it in some of my productions :)".
Joe Zawinul used the M1 extensively on his Syndicate recordings and live gigs toward the end of his career.
My Nautilus has most of those M1 patches in some variation or other. Korg is the king for pads and combis. I've had many synths, and my rig has never been without a Korg or three!
Familiar sounds. One of the common keyboards in churches back in the 90s
so many of these sounds were in my korn n264 and that pick bass especially was something i used a lot on my analog 4 track
13:16 Man In The Mirror yes, but more so "Leave Me Alone". There's a hard hitting loud snare drum every half note after the intro, constantly through the whole tune. It's about Michael's constant media attention which I imagine is just a drilling to him as the snare is to the listener. To be fair, a fair bit of the Bad album has hard hitting snares apart from a few.
Om 🎉grande saund la migliore 🎉
Still have mine since 1990, still working. In 2018 I bought the WaveRex writeable flash PCM sample card for my M1 and loaded TR909 drumkit onto it from my PC via USB. Then plugged it in the PCM card slot in the back. In 2023 I bought the m1ram batteryless MC-02 flash program/combi/sequence storage card, which loads in the top of the M1. No affiliation, incentive or referral benefit to me for mentioning these, I paid in full for both. I would suppose it might not be too surprising that these new accessories are developed for the M1, being the best selling synthesizer.
What I'd like to see Korg do is release their virtual Korg M1 software (which I also own) for the Raspberry Pi compute module, with a hardware interface kit for fitting inside the original M1, interfacing to the display, the memory cards, keyboard, MIDI, audio etc. This would keep the M1 legend alive should the original hardware fail. Korg have released synthesizers using the Raspberry Pi so I could see the intersection of this pioneering work with the legendary M1 being a wonderful opportunity. With WiFi, many large sample sets could be uploaded to the compute module storage without the need for external mods to the case.
17:31 Just GREAT!
