The Korg M1 is a synthesizer and music workstation manufactured by Korg from 1988 to 1995. The M1 was advertised as a 'workstation' rather than a synthesizer, integrating composition and performance features into a single device. It features 16-voice polyphony, high-quality digital samples (including drum sounds), an integrated 8-track sequencer and digital effects processing.

#1732764828313682-684: The United States during the Cold War . Similar to other underwater firearms, it fires a special 4.25-inch (108 mm) metal dart as its projectile. The gun was developed as part of a project called TDP 3801 during the 1960s, and much of the work on it occurred at the Naval Surface Warfare Center White Oak Laboratory in Silver Spring, Maryland , US. Originally, the idea was for the LanceJet,
713-408: The firing pin strikes the primer, the propellant, contained in a chamber below the firing assembly, ignites and propels the dart out of the cylinder. The dart itself is long and thin, and it has four fins machined into its rear section, with each fin having a small angle cut into it that causes water to flow over it and give the projectile a stabilizing spin. The shape of the dart helps it to penetrate
744-475: The gun. The frame, cylinder, door assembly, and action are made of aluminum, the trigger is made of self-lubricating nylon, and all other parts are made of stainless steel. The magazine holds six rounds. The distinctive cartridge fired by the M1 is the Mark 59, a stainless steel cylinder containing a single 4.25-inch (108 mm) long heavy tungsten dart. Near the base of the cylinder is the firing assembly, and when
775-467: The most popular synthesizer of all time. Fact attributed the success to its sampling and sequencer features, which allowed musicians to produce entire tracks without a studio before the rise of digital audio workstations . Following the success of the M1, Korg expanded its lineup with several series of new workstations, including the T-series in 1989, the 01-series in 1991, the X-series in 1993, and
806-512: The same sounds internationally. Korg assembled an international team to develop the sounds for the M1. To create a deep blown bottle sound, the team played a pan flute over a large sake bottle. The M1 features a 61-note velocity- and aftertouch -sensitive keyboard, 16-note polyphony , a joystick for pitch-bend and modulation control, an eight-track MIDI sequencer , separate LFOs for vibrato and filter modulation , and ADSR envelopes . Data can be stored on RAM and PCM cards. The M1 has

868-425: The time. According to Sound on Sound , none of the M1's features were unique, but were implemented and combined in a new way. The M1 was released in 1988 and was manufactured until 1995, selling an estimated 250,000 units. Reviewing it for Sound on Sound in 1988, Tony Hastings wrote that it was "destined to be big, very big", with "sensational" sounds and extensive features that outperformed its competitors. It
899-409: The water while retaining a high velocity. The self-contained design of the Mark 59 contributes to the propellant gases being kept in the cartridge, which eliminates muzzle blast that could produce a dangerous shock wave. It also has the side effect of eliminating muzzle flash and reducing sound, so that the weapon can function as an emergency covert weapon if necessary, although this was rare because of

961-474: Was widely used in popular music and stock music in the late 80s and early 90s. The piano and organ presets were used in 1990s house music , beginning with Madonna's 1990 single " Vogue ". In 2002, the Sound on Sound journalist Mark Vail wrote that the M1 was the bestselling synthesizer in history, though he noted that Korg had not verified the sales figures.
