Korg Wavestation Rescue Kit

Vintage Synth Rescue Kit - Korg Wavestation Series CD-ROM for Macintosh & PC
Includes: 1,000+ Patches / Software / Info
for Wavestation, Wavestation EX, Wavestation A/D, Wavestation SR, Legacy Collection Wavestation

The Korg Wavestation family of synthesizers radically changed the world of music technology by moving away from the workstation/ROMpler approach, and instead making synth sounds for synth's sake. The Wavestation operates by "wave sequencing", whereby internal soundwaves are added together in series to produce tones that constantly evolve over time. If you're looking for meat and potatoes sounds (drums, piano, guitar), this is not the synth for you. But if you want lush pads, organic and flowing, this little baby will take you far.

I have compiled over 180 sysex files containing thousands of patches for the Wavestation family of synthesizers. That means it's compatible with all members of the Wavestation family, including the Korg Legacy Collection Wavestation and the Digital Edition as well. This disc includes several Sysex patch librarians for both Macintosh and Windows PCs to make it easier to organize sounds into useful banks. As an added bonus, I've transferred many of the patches into a huge Emagic SoundDiver library, which makes it quite easy for editing and organizing patches, as well as for compiling banks of your favorite sounds to load into your synthesizer.

This CD also features documentation which will be helpful to anyone who owns a member of the Wavestation family, including the Player's Guide, the Reference Guide, Voice Name List and Performance note. I've recently added a PDF that shows how to use the Sysex sounds on this disc with the Legacy Wavestation.

All files shipped to you on CD-ROM that is compatible with both Macintosh & Windows PCs. This would make a wonderful addition to anyone who owns an Wavestation-class synthesizer. Breathe more life into your vintage Korg by using this cd!

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions - taken from real emails I have received):
Q) Do I get a free synthesizer along with this cd?
A) NO! This is just a CD with program data for this model synthesizer. But since most people buy a new synth to get new sounds, you can pump more life into your vintage gear by purchasing the collection of sound data that is available on this cd.

Q) How do I get these sounds into my (other make) synthesizer?
A) It cannot be done! This program data will only work for the models specified above. Think of a synth as a computer -- it will only run the programs that are made for it.

Q) You just grabbed this stuff from the internet. I could do that!
A) Go ahead and try -- but be prepared to spend hundreds of hours tracking down this stuff. Many of the pdf's are files that I made myself at a cost of time and money to buy photocopied manuals and such. And I've tossed out a bunch of Sysex files that did not work. Plus, I've got a vast array of software tools that helped in the development of this cd. Save yourself the time and money, and just buy my disc already. It's under $20!

Q) Do you have demos that we can hear?
A) There are no demo audio files yet, but I plan to make a series of sample cd's based on some of the sounds contained in this data.

Q) How do I get this to work on my computer?
A) I'm working on generating some documentation for all synth models and for Mac and PC, but I haven't completed this yet. When it's done, registered purchasers can download updates from my website.

Q) Your disc Rocks! I spent hundreds of dollars on commercial patches that aren't as good.
A) Thanks. I didn't get a high thumbs-up rating on Ebay by just waiting for success to happen. Sieze the day? Nope, Carpe discum! *seize the disc*
