I like to work with equipment that is here to stay. The Korg Legacy Collection certainly falls into that category.
The sheer quality of these instruments is what made me want to study electronic music.
I started first at the Institute for Sonology in Utrecht, Netherlands and later at the IRCAM, located in Paris, France. I really learned patching as well as the art of making tape loops and slices while at the Institute in the analogue based, Philips Studios. I also learned to program in FORTRAN V to generate sound digitally with computers. While at the IRCAM, I studied acoustics and interactive composition.
Somewhere along the way, I found myself transitioning completely to computers . Later, I began to hunger again for the feel of real hands-on patching. Along came the Korg Legacy Collection and it's commemorative MS-20 controller! The MS-20 quickly became my favorite. Even in software form, it is quite the powerful machine! It begs to be experimented with!
Quite a number of my productions now feature the inspiring sounds of the synths that make up the Korg Legacy Collection, programmed with the MS-20 controller. I also teach, give masterclasses and play gigs throughout the world. As a sound artist and designer, my work can be found at The Centre Pompidou, located in Paris, France, as well as libraries all over the world. I often collaborate with a number of other artists.

The copy protection method of KORG Legacy Collection series has been changed.
November 9, 2009
Korg announces that there is a change to the copy protection method for the KORG Legacy Collection series. Korg is switching from the USB Key Copy Protection to the Challenge/Response License Authorization where a unique license code is issued to your computer.
To all KLC series customers, we apologize for any inconvenience associated with this change, and greatly appreciate your cooperation and understanding.
Today, we have released KLC updaters* where you can choose either copy protection method. Please note that we are going to stop providing user support services for the USB Key Copy Protection system effective from April 30, 2010. And from May 2010, any updates we issue will support only the Challenge/Response License Authorization system, not the USB Key Copy Protection system.
We appreciate your continuing support for Korg's KLC series products.
KORG Legacy Collection team
