You do know that the M500 hasn't been in production since the 1970's don't you ? It's a vintage synthFactory all stars wrote:anyone know how much this will be?gonna get the volca beats and bass and if this is not too expensive one of these too! CHEERS

You can pick them up on e-bay for between £150-£300 these days.

Re: korg m500 micro preset how much
I believe we're talking about the renders of a re-issue that's been rumoured to be on the cards.

Re: korg m500 micro preset how much
I believe it turned out it was just a rumor or hoax of some sort, right? Maybe even put out by Korg themselves.
If they were to do another reissue, there is so much more desirable legacy they could draw from.

Re: korg m500 micro preset how much
Ah yeah maybe, probably Korg were looking into it and the renders got leaked. Might not ever get past that stage.sourwookie wrote:I believe it turned out it was just a rumor or hoax of some sort, right? Maybe even put out by Korg themselves...

Re: korg m500 micro preset how much
I'm aware some people aren't as enthusiastic as me, but i'm very fond of mine. Its very limited but has a superb MS10 like tone, classic vintage Korg and very usable. It finds its way onto everything i record, the Brass and Synthe 2 presets are SUPERB for leads and solo's. It lacks pitch bend, but the momentary portamento is very expressive.
I would be surprised if Korg brought the Micro- Preset back, people buy Analog for programmability these days. Its one of my most used Synths as it offers that classic Korg sound with no hassle.

Re: korg m500 micro preset how much
I think a 700s reissue would be cooler than that. Always kinda liked the dual filter korg sound.
Re: korg m500 micro preset how much
I think the Micro Preset is the last synth Korg would reissue. Hopefully a Polysix will be next.

Re: korg m500 micro preset how much
If Korg are going to bring back another vintage synth, i think the Polysix and Monopoly would be the best candidates
Really glad they are bringing back the MS20, though people shouldn't expect too much of the semi-modular design.

Re: korg m500 micro preset how much
Somewhere, someone is laughing their butt off at the fact that many people think their hoax was real. Why would Korg rerelease THAT when there's a dozen other vintage synths to choose from.

I think sometimes people invent reasons to buy old synths. A second hand Casio would give you far better value than one of these.Bitexion wrote:Somewhere, someone is laughing their butt off at the fact that many people think their hoax was real.

I'd have it in my collection as a "vintage" synth but musically it has nothing I'd recommend it for
