Korg M1 Perfect Working Order Quality Keyboard Synth In Very Good Condition

For sale is a very nice clean example of Korg's famous M1.This keyboard is in  very good condition with some signs of wear which is to expected with a keyboard of this age but all in all very minor., all the keys and buttons work fine including the joystick which is essential for expressive play, the sound is clear with no crackling and the screen is bright and clear. The keyboard comes with a  power cable, a cd containing thousands of extra sounds which I have collected and created over the years and the manual on PDF.I have fitted a new internal battery which generally needs replacing every 5 years, fitted a completely new set of micro switches and buttons which tend to wear out over time, fitted a brand new joystick, tested the audio outputs and removed, cleaned, checked and re-greased the keys so this keyboard is back to it's best! The keyboard has been completely stripped down and cleaned of all dust and debris, carefully rebuilt and restored, I take great pride in my listings and only sell items of the highest standard.I have also added the original demo songs into the sequencer which gives you a good idea of what this keyboard is able to do. If you would like to hear what the M1 can do I have added a recording of the demo songs to my website which you can view here.https://sites.google.com/site/korgdemo/home/korg-m1-demo Please be assured that my descriptions are original and written by me, not just cut and pasted from other ebay listings.  Every care will be taken when packing the keyboard for protection it on it's journey, it will be safely wrapped in bubble wrap and securely packed in a new box. I have shipped items far and wide and I take pride in the fact I have very good feedback therefore you can be assured of receiving a good quality item from me.If you know about the M1 then you know it is a fantastic keyboard, but if you are new then there is lots of information on them on the web.To summarise the Korg M1 has wonderful sounds and is most famous for it's piano sounds, it was the first keyboard workstation and you can edit and create your own sounds. The effects are cool and easy to change and to top it all the key action is very good, touch sensitive with aftertouch which is very important for expressive play. Even if you were only looking for a controller  keyboard then the action on this would justify buying it.  No studio should be without one of these and it looks cool too with it's smooth lines and curves. I think it's the best looking keyboard around. The M1 is also very robust as it's body is almost completely metal.It is fully midi compatible with in, out and through and with a midi interface it can be easily connected to a pc to access the vast amount of sounds available for the M1.It can be fully integrated into any music software program (DAW) such as Cubase or Sonar and also has it's own stand alone sequencer so it has no trouble meeting the needs of today's modern musician. The M1 has been used by 808 State, Banco De Gaia, Ken Ishii, Depeche Mode, Fluke, The Cure, The Orb, KLF, Plastikman, Bomb The Bass, Gary Numan, Robert Miles, Mike Oldfield, Kitaro, Rick Wakeman, Rod Argent, Joe Zawinul, Patrick Moraz, Pet Shop Boys, Vangelis, The Cranberries, Sin and Jellyfish.
