EXi XPansion Sounds now available

November 24, 2009

Korg is pleased to announce the availability of the new EXi XPansion Sounds for the OASYS, with 128 new EXi Programs and 96 new Combinations. The Programs include classic analog bass, lead, pad, and synth sounds from the AL-1; modeled electric pianos, innovative plucked timbres, and ethereal pads from the STR-1; new expertly-created organ voicings for the CX-3; and more.

The Combinations use these new Programs in conjunction with the factory preload sounds to create evocative layers, useful splits, driving rhythms, and lush, evolving soundscapes.

The EXi XPansion Sounds are free for all registered OASYS users, and are available from the OASYS Download page.


OASYS software 1.3.3a now available

November 24, 2009

Korg has released a minor update for the OASYS 1.3.3 installer. This new version, 1.3.3a, includes the MOD-7 and LAC-1 sounds inadvertently omitted from the 1.3.3 installer.

The OASYS software included in the new installer is exactly the same as 1.3.3. The only difference is in the sounds which are installed.

If you haven't yet updated to 1.3.3, we recommend that you download and install 1.3.3a! There are cool new features, such as KARMA 2.2, along with a few bug-fixes.

If you previously upgraded directly to 1.3.3 without first installing 1.3 or 1.3.1, then we recommend that you install 1.3.3a in order to get the new sounds.
If you previously installed 1.3 or 1.3.1, and later upgraded to 1.3.3, then you do not need to install 1.3.3a.

The 1.3.3a update is free for all registered OASYS users, and is available from the OASYS Download page.
