Introduction to the M50

8

In Combination mode, and Sequencer mode, the M50 
provides dual arpeggiators so you can simultaneously 
play two arpeggio patterns. You can apply separate 
arpeggio patterns to the drum and bass programs, or 
use keyboard splits or velocity to switch between 
arpeggio patterns for an even more dynamic 
performance.

Display

The M50 features Korg’s exclusive TouchView 
graphical user interface. By simply touching the 
display, you can efficiently and intuitively access the 
M50’s enormous wealth of parameters. The crisp 320 x 
240 pixel display provides excellent visibility. 

Chord trigger switch 

The four chord trigger switches can trigger single notes 
or chords (of up to eight notes), and are a useful way to 
play chords, or to control the arpeggiator performance. 
You can easily assign notes or chords to the chord 
trigger switches as desired.

Control surface

The four knobs of the control surface give you greater 
expressive power when using realtime control 
functions to create and control your sounds. Along 
with the chord trigger switches, you can use these 
knobs as an external mode setup for controlling an 
external MIDI device.

Editor, Plug-In Editor

The bundled “M50 Editor” and “M50 Plug-In Editor” 
software are applications that let you edit M50 sounds 
such as programs, combinations, and drum kits from 
your computer.
“M50 Editor” is a stand-alone editor. “M50 Plug-In 
Editor” supports VST, Audio Units, and RTAS formats, 
allowing you to use the M50 as if it were a plug-in 
instrument in your DAW (Digital Audio Workstation) 
software or other host application.
Note: 

The multisample and preset pattern list have 

been updated in version 1.0.1 of M50 Editor/Plug-In 
Editor. In order to maintain compatibility of the 
display in the edit window, please download and use 
the most recent version of the editor.

You can download the most recent versions of the 
editor, plug-in editor, and Korg USB-MIDI driver from 
the following website.
