No samples at all on this one...i't's all MIDI created and the sounds I've used are the action strings form native instruments / kontakt, and some percussion from miroslav philharmonic...both vsts of course. (;

perhaps it's matter of terminology, I meant 'sample libraries', of course, mapped to MIDI ... So I think you answered it ... 'Action Strings' is Kontakt's library, and miroslav philharmonic has a great percussion library from what you're saying ... I'm still using a Korg T1, and enhancing the sound in Audacity ...
Right. ☺ So you are using the T1...I hear you. It used to be my dream Keyboard back in the days...the one that I could never afford to purchase back in the 90's. (: Today I've got the Korg series M1, MDE -X Legacy Cell and the Wavestation as vsts, and they are making up for it. Shoooooot. ((; Every once in while I use some of their sounds for my production. ☺
Yeah, at the time I had a choice, buy a new car as the one I had was having all sorts of 'end of life' issues, or buy a T1 ... A good choice I think ;-)
So you have an M1 or that rack unit that's basically an M1 without the keys? yeah their sample library was always tops and their sound generators are remarkably flexible...
I tried the T1 live on a couple occasions... too heavy to lug, 45kg, too much of a 'prize possession' to expose to all the risks of the road...
...if anything, my next keyboard will be geared for live performance, maybe just a MIDI controller, or even, if could get my hands on a Roland AX-7 keytar...
I'm probably going to go the route of software synths, an inkling toward something from sourceforge, on a Raspberry Pi running Ubuntu ... light, versatile, durable ...
I hear you...it is a good piece of keyboard and heavy lug, no doubt. When you get ready to try MIDI Keyboards and vsts let me know. I'll give you some tips around that area no doubt. I already got a collection of 70's to 90's synths as vsts and they are not pretty luring interfaces I'll tell you that...they sound very authentic and extremely close to the originals...and that's an underestimating statement. ☺
hmm I'm not familiar with the term vsts I presume "virtual synths" ... goog returned Microsoft version of Sourceforge it looked like, but I didn't get into that detail ... On which hw do you run these vsts? I'm thinking of moving entirely away from wintel into Linux/Ubuntu, along with my foray into crypto ... Sick of my webhost, too, may go apache, webtorrents an all so that's why I'm into ubuntu now ...
Ubuntu is set up to unpack a bunch of sequencers Rosegarden being on the top of their list ... So I would need to see how well these vsts plug-in with Rosegarden/ubuntu ...
Not pretty interfaces -- the T1 editor librarian is like that, ugly but so incredibly enhancing of productivity!
