Hi All!
On an actual hardware Korg M1, in a project, could you only use 1 preset coming from the Korg M1 or is it possible to have 2 or more?
Thanks!

The M1 was 8 parts multi-timbral, and it had four audio outputs too. You could play 8 different presets at the same time, split amongst the four outputs as needed. The first two outputs could be used as stereo L/R or as two monos.
I had an M3R rather than M1, but found using "combo" which was monotimbral (one part), it sounded great, but using multi-timbrally it was pretty lame. Not only because you lose the layering of combos, but the FX are global (if I remember correctly) and a big part of the sound design.
If I had an M1, I'd play and record one part at a time, and if I needed to arrange multiple parts before writing each one to audio stems, I'd probably invest in the software M1, then after arranging multiple parts, then replace each one with the hardware real mccoy.
(that's the workflow I use to record my hardware synths. I use Korg Arp Odyssey s/w, and the PG8X as software for tracking before I replace with the hardware)

Sorry about the late reply.
Let's see if I'm following this correctly, so basically I can play 4 presets / patches at the same time?

You can play 8 presets at the same time, if you're willing to blend some of them on the physical outputs of the M1.

Stereo Pad - out 1,2 (L,R)
Stereo Electric Piano - out 1,2 (L,R)
Mono Flute - out 3
Mono Bass - out 3
Mono Orch Hit - out 3
Mono Pluck - out 4
Mono Lead - out 4
Mono Handclap - out 4

So those presets are only available on those outputs?

Though the M1 vst (which I have) sounds brilliant, I am amidst trying to get a fully hardware set up as I think the real hardware sounds a bit better but along with the other hardware will sound brilliant. I just can't get the sounds to sound as good as the tracks I admire with software. Even the vst M1 house piano sounds thin. Adding bass notes along with improves it as does Voxengo Span too but still think it lacks something watching comparison vids on You Tube.

No, that was just an example. You would set up a Combi (Korg M1 lingo for a multitimbral patch), and assign each of the 8 parts to a particular output. Doesn't matter which presets go where.
