Manufacturer's description

The KORG Legacy Collection is the ultimate virtual instrument pack, consisting of software versions of the MS-20 and Polysix analog synthesizers, and the WAVESTATION advanced vector synthesizer, together with a dedicated MS-20 Controller that faithfully replicates the original MS-20 at 84% of the original size.

Perennially popular and hard to find in their hardware formats, these legendary synths are now resurrected for use in your computer as state-of-the-art software synthesizers. Our CMT electronic circuit modeling technology delivers stunningly accurate reproductions of the analog MS-20 and Polysix, and the groundbreaking Legacy Cell combination structure produces beefy and complex new timbres that far surpass the original models. The WAVESTATION is brought into the modern age, answering the requests of thousands of fans of that much beloved instrument.

Verdict

MusicRadar rating: 4.5 of 5

Pros

Gotta love the Mono/Poly’s cross-modulation! The Mono/Poly oscillators are totally independent. MS-20 is still among the best clones on the planet. Legacy Cell is great.

Cons

Extremely complex. You can’t use Mono/Poly in the Legacy Cell.

The bottom line

The Analog Edition 2007 bolsters Korg’s excellent reputation in the soft synth field. The Mono/Poly is a treat, while the other instruments sound as good as they ever did.
