Introducing the P-8 Synth Pack.

The Korg Poly-800 Analog Synth, beautifully sampled for Nord keyboards.

Joining the M-1, J-6, and O-6 synth packs, the P-8 synth pack adds another chapter. At one of the least expensive 8 voice analog polysynths of the 80’s, the Korg Poly-800 was a staple with gigging and studio musicians alike. The Korg Poly-800 was eventually used by many of the 80’s biggest names in music, including Depeche Mode, Geoff Downes, Goldfrapp, Orbital, Nick Rhodes, Sneaker Pimps, Jimi Tenor, and Vangelis.

The Process

The story starts with a friend texting me on a lazy Sunday afternoon. His neighbor had some keyboards in the basement he was getting rid of, would I like to take a look? I hurried over.

Sitting on a pile of piano moving blankets was the Korg Poly-800. I dusted it off, made an offer, and took it home. After having a keyboard tech do a comprehensive overhaul of its internals, it came home with me and found a spot on my keyboard rack. The next year I messed around with it in the studio, exploring and finding the things I liked most about it, and finally creating a pack that highlights the best and quirkiest parts of this little synthesizer.

New Features

New one-click bundle file installation.

With the new bundled installation option, it’s as easy as dragging and dropping in the bundle file to install your entire pack. It’s still possible to install the individual synth presets and programs, as well- you get to choose the way that works best for you.

New program and synth preset sample lists.

We now have spreadsheets listing all of the samples used in all the program and synth preset files. If you ever are missing a sample or want to just install a couple synth presets, just fire up the spreadsheet and you’ll be able to find what you need quickly.

New double layered program files.

All program files now include a Layer 1 and 2 option, with the first layer being more subtle and the second layer growing into a massive space. Check the videos above for more info.

New updated sample categories.

With the Nord Stage 4, all NSMP4 files need to be in the correct category in the sample library. To do this, we recreated all of the root sample files again, re-exporting them in the correct category.

New install guides.

We’ve completely re-written all of our installation guides to make it quick and clear how to install your files. It’s faster and simpler than ever to install your packs.

Easy to install.

If you’re more a visual person, we’ve created a brand new NS4 packs-specific installation video for you. It’s easy and fast to get started:
