KORG has announced the release of an update to its suite of software synthesizers that recreate the authentic sound and behavior of some legendary KORG synthesizers.
KORG Collection 5 adds three more internationally beloved instruments to the bundle, which now includes a total of 14 synthesizers, 2 effects processors, and 1 drum machine.
The KORG Collection is a suite of software synthesizers that methodically and accurately recreates the authentic sound and behavior of legendary KORG synthesizers for the present day and beyond. The KORG Collection project began with analogue models such as the MS-20 and Polysix, and has steadily evolved to include digital models such as the workstation classics M1 and TRITON, and even physical modeling from the renowned Prophecy.
In 2024, KORG is adding three more internationally beloved instruments to the KORG Collection, each of which have left their mark on music history.
- ARP 2600 is a legendary, industry-changing synthesizer introduced in 1971 which had a stunning influence on jazz, rock, pop and funk in the 70s, and also featured in countless movies. KORG faithfully recreated and reissued the ARP 2600 in 2020 as the ARP 2600 FS/ARP 2600M. The ARP 2600 has been carefully modeled and reproduced.
- VOX Super Continental is a carefully modeled combo organ which first appeared in the 1960s and featured extensively in music from the 1960s British Invasion era through to the ska and new wave scenes in 70s and 80s.
- EP-1 models electric pianos that first appeared in the 1960s and have become beloved in soul, jazz, pop music ever since then. This plugin is based on the MDS (Multi-Dimensional Synthesis) technology developed for Korg’s renowned KRONOS and NAUTILUS synthesizers.
The KORG Collection 5 is on sale for $299 USD (regular $399 USD). The new instruments are also available individually, priced $99.99 USD during the Summer Sale until August 18th, 2024.
The offer is available at the KORG store and from Plugin Boutique.
