As a Microkorg owner, thanks for this.

I am extremely pissed solely because you don’t have enough videos for me to binge. I watched pretty much everything on this channel in one day. Keep up the good work.

As someone with a closet full of old cheap gear that I've been hoarding since the mid 90s, which I refuse to trash, I am loving your channel! Great editing, and your humor keeps things fun. Cheers from the Ozarks!

I am still saying that this is way too good to be unknown. Awesome stuff

I've got to say it, but I really love your Bad Gear series, but I also love the fact you're doing stuff like this - revisiting and going over some other foibles or points in order to use this stuff now. I loved being reminded of some of those expensive DX7 programmers. I'll never get one, but I loved seeing them as I'd completely forgotten them. I'll stick to having a stiff drink and a slap about the face before I delve into programming the DX7 through the one slider. So please keep up with stufff like this. It's not only entertaining, but it shows actual usage of this neglected equipment, and that's no bad thing.

This video is to electronic music as is reading the sheet music to Robert Johnson is to the blues. Welcome , informative and miraculously not as boring as one should expect. Danke

Buying a Korg MS200B was the best thing to do as a Korg owner. Most of the knobs on the MS2000 have the same CC assigns as other Korgs of the same age (and I suspect the microkorg). So I use it to control a Trinity V3 which is somewhat lacking in knobs, but has the Prophecy board. It allows you to have a full knob prophecy and the trinity thrown in.

74 ist das Jahr, in dem ich geboren wurde ... es ist auch meine Lieblingsnachricht zur Änderung der MIDI-Steuerung. Normalerweise verwende ich meinen Opcode-MIDI-Sequenzer der alten Schule, um Steuerungsänderungsnachrichten an alle meine Synthesizer zu senden. Es funktioniert großartig. Danke für das tolle Video, wie immer, Florian!

I love how you start the episode by basically telling us to RTFM

After spending a good 16+ hours trying to get my Roland A-500 Pro midi controller to work, I had to give up. Then I spent several hours online looking for an Evolution UC33 with no luck. Finally I went on facebook to ask my friends list. Apparently one of my good mates in Paris has one he will sell me. FTW!!!! Needless to say I am super exited. My MK is already my favorite synth. But the thought of being able to control all the parameters i want real time without menu diving is amazing. I already plan to do an entire album with it. And when I release it, I will most certainly credit you Brother AudioPilz for the inspiration x.

Thank you so very much!! This helped me to control Microkorg with my M-Audio Axiom49. I finally got rid of those tiny little stretching mechanism keys!!

I miss my microkorg. First synth I ever bought, and it sure was a great shovel for starting to dig my own rabbit hole. If I buy one again, I'll probably make as close to a 1:1 controller for it.

i dont care much about this subject because if it doesn't have dedicated controls, i don't want it. but i will watch this video because you make things sound cool and your voice is uplifting

thanks for this video. the microkorg actually found its way into my setup with your help. making patches is less painstaking and more fun to see what the synth engine is capable of. also managed to run the audio and sync it alongside my sp404 through ableton and ive found myself having fun with music again.

Another great MIDI piece of software that sadly is no longer available and discontinued was Emagic's 'Soundiver'... It basically used to dive into any hardware that was built in the 80's and 90's and pretty much bring out all controls via a nice GUI so you could control your MIDI gear via software.... And now for some praise - Your channel is awesome - Keep finding that 'Bad Gear'... Another hardware suggestion for bad gear ... The EMU-Proteus2000 - I have one - I love it and hate it at the same time....PCM sounds but a small screen to edit with... unless you have the Prodetum Software that is available for free... Full of late 90's early 2000 sounds...

Very sweet, they say" learn and then forget" I had no end of problems with M-Audios Ozone years back and ended up learning about midI during that particularly difficult phase,. Now I have completely forgot again! love your videos man. Bad gear, er, I got a second hand Launch Control that stinks so badly of cigarettes its toxic.

U save my microkorg yo get sold, I really didn't know how to make it sound good but after I watch the last videos I decided to give a try

Definitely the best electronic music channel

love this tutorial, really greatfull for all the work and time you investing into this !!

Hey, if not been mentioned before, need to adjust the Midi filter on micrkorg before it can receive Midi data, page 61 in the 'manuel' or shift and 4 key, twist the knobs to -E then save by press 4 or shift key. Good luck

Looks like you can change the CC# of each parameter in the Microkorg. It is in the manual in page #61. Looking forward to try it this weekend! 🖖

As a enjoyer of the Korg Volca Keys, the M-Audio oxygen 8 v2 is reeeaaalyyyy nice

Midi goblin can translate any incoming midi cc messege to a new value if you want a really easy midi remapping device for an old controller...you can also save patches to it

You really did it thank you this is so helpful :'^)!!!! When I saw you do this in the other video it changed my life. I will never be the same. Thank you for bringing a small light in my life with your videos Pilz you're my hero

Clear and concise explanation, thx!

So I have this exact same set up (except I have the XL+) and for some reason I’m having trouble getting it to work and was wondering if it was something simple you could point out. This is what I understand is the process: plug midi cable into the UC-33’s midi out and run it to the Microkorg’s midi in. Make sure both are set to same midi channel (I set them both to 1), press “select” and move fader/knob so it selects it, then press “assign” and punch in the cc# (I chose 74 for the cut off like it appears you did in the vid). I’ve tried this process several times with a multitude of other random experiments to no avail. Anyways, thanks for the vid (and all the others too). I actually ended up buying the UC33 after watching this as after some research it appeared to be the best option!

Used to use mine with a Beatstep Pro... I'd set the MK arp up and even with 64 steps for some bass patterns I'd literally only have to punch one or two buttons per 16 steps and get a killer italo disco sound

Ich habe damals in meiner Informatiker zwischenprüfung einen Vortrag über midi und co gehalten. War ne glatte 1 aber ich hätte denen auch was vom Pferd erzählen können. Mein Klassenlehrer und hauptprüfer fand beeindruckend wie begeistert ich von der Materie bin. 😂😂😎👍

Great stuff.

Best midi-controller: BCF2000 (Behringer with automated faders)

you gotta be a nerd to enjoy video's like these, because i love midi.

Ok next please, how to control the midi controller controlling the microkorg using the microkorg

Like you said, I feel like no expert after the video, although the video seems like a compact/good explanation of this ***** process.. Thanks!

Lieber Florian, bitte hör nicht auf Videos zu machen. Die sind super!!!1!!1

using my microkorg with the ms20 controller.

Could you make a video for beginners on Midi and how to connect everything in your studio? I would like to build something useful after having owned multiple vintage synths, but my head starts spinning as soon as I see your awesome setups.

the best youtuber is BACK

Super interesting . I have a semi kewl Arturia BeatStep Midi controller that has 16 knobs. Could you do a tutorial on using the microKorg with a DAW, , sending midi, recording audio, etc ? thanks

I love to know how to do this on the latest electribe2 models. Also you should do a video on them too as they are totally underrated imo

Fun concept, I like it.

Thankyou so much for doing this video

You're starting to cost me money, neighbor... just scored a UC-33 on eBay for $much_less_than_on_reverb. I am a Happy Camper™ now. Knobs and sliders for all those softsynths! Yay! :D

How do you connect both a sequencer and a controller in the microkorg? I have a UC33 (luckily) and connected it the way you do, but since uc33 has no “through”, how can I make the microkorg play modo notes (lets say from a DAW) and also it’s parameters be controlled by the UC33?

Trying to add regular sustain pedal functionality to my MicroKorg. Plan is to use a USB/MIDI expression pedal controlling the Release knob, but cannot find that CC on the midi implementation chart. Is there a better way you’d approve this and is there a midi expression/sustain pedal that’s programable for this purpose you know of? Thx!

Hi, how are you? Could you help me with this concern? I have been trying to connect my Microkorg to an MPC 500, but I'm not sure if I need any extra equipment, like a modular. I have also been unable to connect it to a Roland Sampling Pad SPD-S with a drum pad. Thanks in advance!

Hi Audiopilz, how about a video of the Roland SP-404 or the Fuzz Noise Problem with Roland Boutiques when not connectef via usb.. This is really bad🤓 Anyway i still use my microkorg... Bought when it was new...Mucrokorg Hold longer than many mobiles... Top Channel by the way, enjoy your video editing too... Cheers

Hi Pilz, I'm trying without success to use the evolution uc33e with a korg nts 1 but I can't. I'm trying with your tutorial but the controller doesn't communicate anything to the synth. Can you give me some more advice? Thank you

THANK YOU!

5:07 ... DAN! respect

I had no clue you could do this. I didn’t hate the workflow honestly. You just gotta read a little.

How do you not have more subscribers?!

Brilliant AgaIN BRO!!

muy bueno

Micro Korg is my midi controller

Which cheap old (5-pin DIN) midi controllers would you recommend?

Hi! Do you think that the MC-303 could function as a MIDI controller for the Microkorg? Danke im Voraus!

Wpuld this work with thr MK XL?

Better than a dx7 interface

Hi there! Thank you for this video. Do you have any idea if I can send 2 voices on 2 different external audio channels ?

programming mine with the iPad using TB MIDIstuff app and its free microKorg panel.

I have a Maschine studio with which I CANNOT trigger the microkorg and it has been driving me crazy for years! I have a crappy usb MIDI interface and with that it kinda works but with the Maschine it doesen't and I don't know why

Nice, but you missed the 'ultra kewl DIY' category.

thanks healthy looking moby !

I have a problem with controlling the microkorg. I use microkontrol to control the microkorg because the microkontrol has a lot of knobs and sliders but the midi values are jumping around because when you move something in the controller (encoders and sliders) no matter what the existing value is of a parameter in the microkorg it will jump to the current value of the midi. I don't think I've explained that clearly. I think the terms for that thing I want to achieve are "Soft Takeover" and "Catch Mode". Soft Takeover or catch mode is when you move something on the controller there will be no change on the parameter of the synth until it matches the current value of the parameter of the synthesizer you are controlling. Do you have a solution for this? Is using both the midi out and the midi in of the microkorg and the controller make a difference? Will it suddenly activate catch mode? Because I don't see these terms on the manuals of both. I'm sorry this is too long but I would appreciate any suggestions. Thank you.

is it possible to control the sustain pedal via Midi CC64?

Anybody know if its possible to use the microkorg as a multi timbral synth with an external midi sequencer?

You have teased, now you HAVE to feature the Beamz...

Having a lot of trouble hooking my launchpad pro up any advice

I was looking for a tutorial on how to do this and I didn't expect Bad Gear to have one! Thanks!! Btw, do you know if I can assign parameters to the 1-5 knobs on the MK? Say, instead of knob 5 controlling tempo changing to the LFO rate?

Hi, great video! im having trouble with syncing the microkorg to a roland tr 8s, here's my problem: The roland i use as master (midi out) to the korg (midi in/slave), so that the arpegiator of the korg follows the tempo of the roland. Everything is pretty perfect so far except although the arpegiator tempo is correct, half of the time it starts and stays off beat. How do i get the arpegiator to run perfectly on the beat, what am I doing wrong? Or is the microkorg simply "inaccurate" by design? Ps i tried matching midi channels but that makes the arpegiator glitch by playing notes i'm not even touching, so even worse. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thx!

Is it possible to do this while sending some midi notes from a DAW ? Next vid ? ;)

Funktioniert auch gut mit Maschine +

Can I use my micro korg xl as a midi keyboard to play virtual instruments in Logic Pro x?

Can this be done with the microkorg XL?

Bester!

Do sokebody know how to control microkorg using midi controller?

I'm getting a go of one of my fee had the micro brute last night so he's bringing me a micro korg to mess about with and he seid they will be up for sale so all probably be buying them

Haha Tricky-Dicky!

Using my trusty Pyramid!

Holy fuck

BCR2000 :)

Or you could get a ms 2000

I had to shimmy the midi to make it work *sigh*

I'd love to see someone try to control with a Casio XWPD1 😂 Or maybe a Roland SPD20. Get real creative with it

I hope you van Read this this is ny faforit synth but to expensive

I love MIDI and I am very that it exists, but anything I wanna do with it outside of the "norm" just makes me vomit diarrhea ^^

o yeah i remember, uber nerdy stuff to assign a midi controller and once it is done you change your mind on how you want it. Let me ease your pain: buy a synth with full hands on layout. There, you're welcome. And if you have a ipad, maybe just try the app Patch Base for the microkorg and a bunch of others;

Find a CME Bitstream, buy it and never sell it
