Features the famous Korg NJM2069 filter chip, providing resonant, creamy analog filtering over digital samples. Inside the Factory Sound Library (The Korg KSD Series)
The Rhodes, Wurlitzer, and Piano samples offer a distinct, lo-fi aesthetic that holds its own in a mix without requiring heavy processing. Conclusion
The best way to use the original library is to replace the floppy drive with a Goat-equipped USB drive. This allows for lightning-fast loading of the entire 30+ disk set.
The 24dB/oct resonant filter can turn a simple sample into a massive, squelchy bass sound or a sharp, screaming lead.
Released in 1986, the Korg DSS-1 (Digital Sampling Synthesizer) was Korg's first foray into the world of sampling. It was an ambitious hybrid, combining with a fully analog signal path, including the renowned Korg NJM2069 VCF (Voltage Controlled Filter). This fusion of gritty digital samples and a warm, resonant analog filter gave the DSS-1 a unique sonic character that remains highly sought after.
