Re: Anyone here have the original Korg MIDI retrofit?

2011-03-11 by feline1973

I got the Korg Legacy polysix VSTi recently, 
and spent a while going through the original Korg patch charts for the polysix, and dialling them into the VSTi - they matched *fairly* well, but in particularly, the response of the LFO > VCO modulation was HUGELY more sensitive on the VSTi than on my real polysix, with ridiculous vibrato on the VSTi if I followed the patch charts to the letter.
This would lead me to suspect that the VSTi patch dump isn't identical to the Korg factory midi retrofit.
