Empire NEO Vol 1

Korg KingKorg NEO

As you may know, I had the original KingKorg and really loved the Synth Engine, which is very powerful and great Sounding, however after some time I sold it on to get other Synths…You know the Score :)

Once I got the NEO, I set up and tried to see if I could recreate a Patch or two, which thankfully I could, so decided to recreate all 100 Patches from Empire Vol1. Now, they are not all 100% identical, as Korg have changed a lot of the Oscillator types and some parameter settings are different, as well as the way the FX can sound.

Anyway, I have recreated them all and where there is no longer the PCM or DWGS that I originally used, I have selected a suitable replacement. Also, as the Joystick is a
lot smaller, I was finding I was veering into Pitch Bend too easily on Sounds like Pads, so i have removed it and applied other functions to the pitch Bend, such as Panning or FX amount.

All 100 Patches have been demonstrated previously on the original KingKorg, so not a lot of point duplicating the effort as most are identical, however I have made a Video of some of my favorites on the NEO.

This is for the KingKorg NEO ONLY.  Once Downloaded, No Refunds.

Empire Vol 1

Original Korg KingKorg

What an incredible Synth this is, now that I've dug really deep into the capabilities, I really think this is an amazing Synthesizer, with bags of character and strengths.

We've all gone analogue recently because the manufacturers have been giving us them again, but there's still a place for a high quality Virtual Analogue that isn't a VST.

The range of Oscillators and most of all, the Filter types has made patch creation a breeze and one sound in particular "HellsFury" is probably the best Pad i've made on any Synth.

The KingKorg might have been overshadowed by the "New Kids" however this is one capable Synth, which can make all manner of sounds...with floating, motion Pads being a specialty.

I've made a huge array of diverse patches from Pads, Bass, Strings, Leads and Arp's.  The patches make full use of  single and stacked sounds, with the odd split.  The Korg KingKorg is a great Synth.  One that I will continue to explore in the future.

PLEASE CHECK YOUR DRIVER/KORG APP WORKS BEFORE PURCHASING.
