This allows the top of the workstation to be very uncluttered.

KORG is the only manufacturer that gives you pleasure of navigating menus with the touch of a finger. The first thing that catches your eye with the M50 is the huge blue touch-screen. Let’s take a quick look at what this beast is capable of. This really gives semi-professionals a huge amount of power with their music, without complicating the machine with too much. KORG took everything essential from the M3, and removed all the fluff. This means that you get the powerful EDS synth engine at a throw away price! The list of cuts might look large, but it’s really not that bad.

With features like Open Sampling, KARMA 2.0, the RADIAS expansion option and the aftertouch being removed, the M3 is identical to the M50! And this is saying something, since the M3 itself borrows its waveROM from their then flagship workstation, the KORG OASYS. Jumping right in, the M50 is a cut down version of the already legendary M3. KORG have always been coming up with products with stage artists and performance artists in mind, and it is in this context that one must evaluate their instruments. KORG have really outdone themselves with this one! I think the M50 is a semi-professional artists dream! At the price, nothing can beat the power and functionality of the M50.
