My custom Microkorg patches (free)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 27 авг 2024
- Hello internet wanderer! Here are 26 patches (presets, sounds) for the Microkorg. I have made them myself. No external effects were used in the video. They are totally free, but i don't have a MIDI interface, so you'll have to make them manually, using my instructions. The instructions are in the video. Or you can just download them in jpg format, if you like - here is the link: drive.google.c...
They sound better if you connect your Microkorg via stereo
WARNING!: There are mistakes in the video (i am really sorry for that):
for Spell of Sirens - distortion must be turned off in amp settings
for spell of crystals - for timbre 1: LFO1 - tri / Off / Off / 15

P.S.

In case you don't know how to program multitimbral patches on Microkorg - just push the "timbre select" button, choose "timbre 1", put in all the info for the "timbre 1" from my patch instructions, then choose "timbre 2", put in all the info for the "timbre 2", then save the patch. Btw you can listen to each timber of one patch separately by pressing "shift" + "timbre select" button.
Please excuse my shitty playing, i have made these melodies on the go, but i hope they are enough to illustrate the sounds.
If you liked the patches, or want to listen to them in the mix, here is a link to my album (it is free as well)
I have used them on most tracks.

Thank you for making these, they sound great. I also like your aesthetics. I find that it’s easy to get lost in the technical side of synthesis so it helps to be reminded that there are other way of seeing things.
Thank you for your words! :^)
These patches are beautiful and when I'm building them from your instructions, I catch myself reading the parameters out loud, almost like I'm casting a spell, summoning these sounds into existence. I'm new to building out synth patches from scratch like this so it all feels like magic to me. Thank you.
Thank you for your words! I feel the same, when making music or patches or anything music-related. Music is spells - it casts emotions, feelings, thoughts, it can haunt you! You can transform into it if you are skillful enough - this is my dream!
There's a reason it feels like magic...

this video is fantastic. really well organized thank you very much. I picked a couple of my favorites to program into my microkorg as I'm still getting used to it.
Thank you!
This whole thing is pure art and I want the creator to know they're a success
thank you for your kind words
Better than most paid patches, seriously great job
thank you! :^)
Some of the best sounds I’ve ever heard from a MicroKorg.
Thank you!
Thank you! Microkorg (MS2000) is my favorite sounding synth!
Really great stuff. I’ve had my microkorg for 20 years and i wish I had the creativity to come up with stuff like this. I just keep programming another version of a Pink Floyd lead or an aphex twin poly patch. But it still feels rad every time I do it.
Thank you! Fun is the most important thing, so you are doing good! ;^)
yr aesthetic is beautiful
thank you!
Awesome patches there! Gonna fill my 2000B with these, 🍻😎👍🎹🎵🙏
thank you!😁
Really really impressive. It's clear that you've really dived under the hood and utilized the synth to it's fullest potential. Great personality to those sounds! Thanks very much for sharing, all very inspiring.
Thanks! i am happy that you liked it!
hell yes
;^)
what wonderful work! thank you so much for releasing them for free. it seems most microkorg patch makers want $20 for their distorted triangle wave patches. you are not most microkorg patch makers.
thank you for your reply! The fact that people will possibly create music using my patches is rewarding enough! Things like that are not for sale ;^)
Psychedelic! Thank you you bless-ed individual ❤
Thank you for your words! :^)
ily
Awesome!
Thank you! ;^)
Those patches at 1:02 and 1:11 are INSANE!!!!
Thank you!
You are a legend for putting these out free. Beautiful artwork on the pictures of the patches too btw
Thank you! Appreciate your words! The artwork is not mine though - i made it using medieval engravings
this video is so cool, in every way
thank you!
This is witchcraft
A sorcerers Sound track
I love it
i love witchcraft and occult themes, this is a big compliment! Thank you!
Замечательно, очень хорошо звучит microkorg.
Он молодец да)
Thanks my man, i've been looking for some forums where people can share their own presets but im not that lucky!! Haha
As soon as i arrive home i'll check these presets out
Thanks 4 sharing!
thanks for checking! Btw if you'll find these forums eventually can you please give me a link - i'll post my stuff there too ;^)
Yeah!! If i don't find these forums we can allways start one ;)
@@S-v-v-a thank you in advance!
same . definitely need presets and templates

Awesome sounds and music as well. I've really wanted something scary for this microbeast on board, now I have it.
Many thanks for sharing!
Happy that you like it! I think Microkorg is perfect for eerie and vogue sounds. People often treat it like a toy, cause its so cheap and small and all, but they underestimate its beauty.
@@foolycooly6738 Yes, and there are not so many eerie patches around for some reason. Well, a great addition to my collection.
I faced some problems while programming Spell of Crystals but I managed to solve them. As I remember there is a mistake in a table: LFO1 Tempo Sync must be set to Off and LFO2 Frequency must be 15 instead of 70. However, I couldn't cope with Spell of Sirens. Could you check your values on this patch again, please? Maybe something with Amp EG because the attack on my patch is not as smooth as in your vid.
@@keep_your_sanity for spell of crystals LFO1 is 15 instead of 50. Sorry! Tempo Sync is off
@@keep_your_sanity for Spell of Sirens there is indeed a mistake - distortion must be turned off in amp settings! Sorry for that! I can't see no other mistakes.
@@keep_your_sanity I am really sorry for the mistakes - i have problems with concentration, working with numbers is always hard for me. If you'll find more - please let me know! And thank you for pointing it out!
Thank you very much! I've recently got a Microkorg and am not capable of programming it very well yet. So these have been great to try out. And hopefully if i try and reverse engineer some, I should hopefully be able to teach myself something. 👍
Happy to help! Microkorg's manual have taught me everything i know about the subtractive synthesis - i can't recommend it more!
@@foolycooly6738 I only have it on my phone, but I will give the manual a much better read. Thanks again.
these are beautiful, thank you so much
Thank you for your kind words!
Great sounds!!! Thank you for sharing
thank you!
Ah yes my first instrument
my first synth as well
Real diamond, thank you for youre work 🙏
thank you!
great job! sounds beautiful
Thank you!
good taste, these are so unique
Luuuved theeze soundz .great job
thank you!
tunes are also great!
Amazing patches, is what we hear the dry sound? Or did you add effects? Either way, awesome patches
Thank you! No external effects here (effects you can hear, like chorus / delay are from the Microkorg)
You are herooo! thanks🎉
Happy that u like it!
Hei man this is awesome!!! thanks so much for this! do u ever made a patch that sounds like juno 60 with its chorus?
Thank you! No, i don't think that i have ever tried to recreate Juno's sounds. But some saw waves with chorus will get you there for sure
Ahhh i see, how to make chorus sound in the microkorg? Cause i dont think there's chorus on the modulation?
@@huntingcicadas8774 There is an option called "EnS" in the effects section of Microkorg. I think it is some kind of a chorus. Or try using "Flg" - it is a flanger, but it can be used as a chorus (not so good, but still works for me)
Ahhh i seee, thats what i was thinking theres flanger phaser but no chorus, so the ens is some kind of chorus, gotta try that
thanks so much man for the detailed explanation, keep doing what u do! U did really well and help a lot of newbies like me, i'll subscribe and wait for ur next creation!
@@huntingcicadas8774 Thank you very much for saying that!
lit
Cool!
love it
💜
awesome! is it ok if i use one or two of these patches for a show i am playing in june? it's a small noise music festival in my city. i love finding new microkorg patches!
It is definitely ok! I love noise! Use anything on my channel you can use :^)
@@foolycooly6738 thank you!
Hi
Question : the microkorg patches are compatibles with the XL ?
Hi! The OG Microkorg and the XL version have different synth engines, so no, unfortunately my patches won't work on the XL version

Thank u for ur response

How to translate the instructions to program the VST version of microKORG?
That's a tough question, cause i don't have a VST version. The best way i can think of (it won't be easy anyway unfortunately) is to compare your VST's controls with this picture of Microkorg's matrix (drive.google.com/file/d/18B1GZnnvYyID9Um16XjQtpaySen4siJW/view?usp=sharing ) So the titles in the red frame are equal to the first column of my table. That way you can connect the controls from the picture with values from my instruction, then find that controls in your vst. Feel free to ask additional questions if something is still unclear.
It's time consuming but it actually works! Thanks
Oh and one more question. Your artwork and technical knowledge both on sound design, music theory and graphics design and just overall aesthetics is really impressive. How did you learn all this?? Do people get born with abilities like this or is it possible to acquire them :o @@foolycooly6738
Thank you for you kind words! But i don't think that my skill are somehow special - i know all that stuff at very basic level actually. I don't know anything about music theory at all - for the most part of my life i thought, that black keys are called minor and white keys are called major hahah! As for the graphic design - i liked to draw and to mess with pictures in photoshop since my childhood. It's nothing special - just basic operations with layers, some medieval engravings pngs i found at the internet and some coloring. As for the sound design - all my knowledge came from reading Microkorg's manual. As for my music - i just do it everyday for like ten years and just talk to people if i don't know how to do something (still too lazy to learn music theory hah). If you want my advice on how to learn stuff like that: just do what you like, do it for fun, not for the profit, do it for the process, not for the result, and don't except anything from it. Also some basic tutorials on how to use FL studio and Photoshop will get you there for sure!
Lol did you figure it out? I’m also tryna figure it out with vst
Thank you for sharing! 😊
If I use them on any of my musics, I'll surely let you know!
It would be great! :^)
