I used to own an M1.  I liked some of the sounds on it and want to know if anybody uses this software and if it is worth it.
I don't know where to purchase it either.  Just saw some old online stuff about it.
 
Thanks.

If you liked the hardware M-1 you should love the M-1 in software. It comes with all the cards. Admittedly some of the sounds are not useful and many of them sound similar, but you have hundreds to choose from,they are quality and they can all be tweaked. You can also set it up as a multi.
 
You should be able to get it from the Korg Website or maybe at a discount from a vendor. I am not aware of any recent sales but there may be.
 
 
I wish more companies that made famous keyboards would do this.I use mine a lot.

A big +1 for the M1 here!!
I think it's totally worth it and the sounds are very useful/highly recommend it. About once year, Korg does have a sale and I got it at the link below, a few years back......but, you might try the net (or ask Larry ) for the best deal.

Rimshot, I just saw the entire Legacy collection going for $99 at KVR, from a private seller. I don't know anything about his reputation at KVR, but he seems to be a regular there and also, there's a feedback thread that people post about after sales etc.....
 
Here's the link: http://www.kvraudio.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=43&t=402215
 
Ps.
Over the years, I've personally bought a lot of software (via paypal) from KVR and every transaction has been a positive experiences (including my recent purchase of Synthmaster), but you should still do a bit of research on the seller before jumping in.
Good luck!!

Wow!  To everyone thanks bunches.  I will follow the threads this weekend.  I especially liked the string and electric piano sounds. 
 
Happy Super Bowl Sunday!

If you think M1 its the cats meow
try the Wavestation  just a gas to play with\
 
especially how the virtual joystick mimics the vector mixing

Major +1 for the entire Korg suite. 
Some of the very few 3rd party plugs I'm still using and wouldn't want to be without.

It used to be cheaper if you get the collection by buying the Korg microkeys 61, than purchasing the collection itself when it's not on offers. The recent offer is the exception, not sure if it's ended. If it's ended, get the microkeys :) , but only the 61 keys version is packaged with the full collection, I think.
 
I've collected some hardware synths (D70, Yamaha SY, Alesis QS..) but missed the whole Korg series, so it's good to have it. Just that I've not gone deep into the sound yet, as I seem to use the AAS collection for most of my projects. On a recent project, I was looking for an organ sound in a hurry and remembered there are some in the M1 soundset.. pull it out, but it's not suitable. Ended up choosing one from Dim Pro, DSF libraries.
 
If you're used to the Korg hardware, I suppose it's immediately more useful.
