Korg 01 W Vst !!hot!!
While Korg has digitized many of its legendary instruments for the Korg Collection, a dedicated Korg 01/W VST has been a frequent request from the community for years. As of early 2026, the 01/W is not available as a standalone plugin in the official Korg Collection. The Legacy of the Korg 01/W
- The "Universe" Pad: Listen to Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me or early Aphex Twin. The 01/W had a pad preset (often "Universe" or "Soundtrack") that oscillated with a unique, unsettling beauty.
- The Piano: While the M1 had the famous "House Piano," the 01/W had a crisper, more resonant acoustic piano that appeared on countless R&B ballads (think Jodeci, Mary J. Blige, and early 90s Janet Jackson).
- The Bass: The "Slap Bass" and "Fretless" on the 01/W were so responsive to velocity that keyboardists abandoned their bass players.
Choose a Type: Select from 60 tables (e.g., Sine, Pulse, or complex textures).
The 01/W was the successor to the legendary M1 and became a staple of 90s music. It is best known for:
Unique Waveshaping: This signature feature allows you to dynamically reshape waveforms to create complex harmonic overtones and gritty digital textures.
The 01/W uses AI2 Synthesis, which expands on the M1's engine with more PCM samples and advanced modulation.
Fans continue to lobby Korg on social media platforms for an official release. Given that Korg recently updated the Korg Collection 6 to include more recent classics like the microKORG, an 01/W remains one of the last major gaps in their digital lineup.
