Many SOS readers won't need me to describe the M1 'sample and synthesis' instrument, but for those who weren't around when it was first released in, here's a quick summary. The contents of the 19 expansion cards originally sold as optional extras for the M1 shown right are instantly available in the software version via a mouse click. I don't simply treat it as a sampler but a Linear Arithmetic and DWGS synth that can have sounds layered and split in different ways! Free only.
This has to be the most idiotic procedure I have ever seen in any synth and makes creating or editing patches useless and chore! This is the perfect synthesizer for layering sounds! KORG Legacy Collection Special Bundle v1.1.1 Overview

Synthesis engine has a lot to make great sounds however, for whatever reason every time you are editing a patch which would have many levels of effects, as soon as you try to select a different waveform for any Osc the patch or sound outputs solo and DRY which means you can't audition your patch while selecting different waveforms, you are forced to exit the edit page before it will allow you to hear your change. Add a ballsy analog synth and you are pretty close to having it all. They are well-rendered and sound amazing. The difference is that iWS followed this synth and is more complex but adds greater animation to the sounds.
