Synth Presets for 'Analog' via Microkorg

Post by miekwave » Wed Jul 10, 2013 6:45 am

Where can I buy/download MicroKorg presets converted to Analog presets, or so I have do do them manually? Is there a preset bank avail for download?

While the two are similar in terms of architecture, i think you would find that even identical presets might sound quite different. That being said, another issue is with the waveforms output by OSC 1 on the MK. There are additional types not available on Analog. So while some presets might be approximate from the MK to Analog, there are some that would not be at all possible.

Thanks for sharing, I am not looking for a Microkorg Replacement, but i would like to be able to load multiple patches of "similar" type sounds as those on Microkorg. For the most part, these are the typical Analog patches (2 Osc, SQR/SAW, LPF Filter, ADSR AMP, LFO Vabrato/Wah/Tremolo). I have reproduced some patches with mild success making Instrument rack with Two Analogs in Parallel then a Delay/Chorus/Flange after that (matching MK architecture as much as possible) for the presets. I was curious if this is already out there, but after searching for so long, I suppose not.
