The M3 music workstation/sampler uses the “KORG
Komponent System,” with the KYBD-61/73/88
keyboard assembly and the M3-M sound module in a
detachable configuration.
A. M3-M (sound module section)
This is the M3-M sound module.
You can use the M3-M attached to the KYBD-61/73/88
keyboard assembly, or use the M3-M by itself as a
MIDI sound module with an external MIDI keyboard
or controlled from your computer.
B. KYBD-61/73/88 keyboard assembly
This is the KYBD-61/73/88 keyboard assembly.
Connect it to the M3-M. For details on how to connect
this to the M-3M and how to use it, please see
“Keyboard assembly Manual.”
1. SW1 and SW2
These are used to control the M3-M’s programs or
effect parameters, or to turn the joystick or ribbon
controller’s lock function on/off.
The actual functions that are being controlled will
depend on various program and effect parameters.
2. Joystick
You can control the M3-M’s program parameters or
effect parameters by moving the joystick up/down/
left/right.
The actual functions that are being controlled will
depend on various program and effect parameters.
They will do something like the functions shown
below:
Standard Joystick functions
3. Ribbon controller
You can control the M3-M’s program parameters and
effect parameters by touching or sliding your finger on
the ribbon controller.
The actual functions that are being controlled will
depend on various program and effect parameters.
4. TO MODULE , TO MODULE (2nd) connectors
Use the included cable to connect the M3-M and the
keyboard assembly. When they are connected, you can
use the keyboard assembly’s keyboard, SW1 and SW2
switches, joystick, and ribbon controller to control the
M3-M. The KYBD-61/73/88 keyboard assembly has
two TO MODULE connectors (main and sub),
allowing you to connect two devices that are
compatible with the KORG Komponent System. For
