Gaming KORG DS-10 Synthsizer - Any Tutorials out here?!

[Zerrix]

HiHO,

Since two days or so I'm trying to make some songs with my KORG DS-10 but every time I'm finished they sound like crap >.>
So, are there any good tutorials on how to make songs etc. for this program?

I do love it very much!^^

plz help

I havn't seen any nice tutorials or tutorials on how to 'make a song', since thats basicly just taking music class, but there are official tuts on how to use it, although in japanese. It's quite self explanitory though, he shows what happens when you turn the knobs, etc.:

the list with a lot of movies are all tuts, numbered from 1-6. Since the topic of each tut is in english (PITCH, VCF,ETC.) It's quite easily understood, unless you're the stubborn kind :3

its not really something that can be taught. Just fool around with all the tools until you figure out what each does.


Also, being a musician really helps too.

i saw this in play-asia (too bad, its japanese-only):

Sakutto Asobetu KORG DS-10 Synthesizer Official Guide

i hope an english version of that guide (or something similar) will show up soon.

Cool guide, 144 pages! If only it was in english.

for those who have seen the manual included in Korg DS-10, is really informative? does it have neat tricks included in it? ive been "playing" with the software since it went out and i think it really deserves my money when it comes out in english.

a translation of the manual would be perfect

I made a good song the first time I played around with it. It's just like a real synthesizer. I really liked the drum sequencer in it too! You can make a pounding bass drum. The synth was really good too I made a really trancy synth with a nice delay effect. All I have to say is, fool around with it and compare sounds when you turn knobs and stuff.
