KORG EXB-FW Optional 2 In/6 Out Digital Audio and MIDI FireWire Board

The EXB-FW allows you to use the Virtualized Hardware functionality. Virtualized Hardware is a feature that allows Audio signals and MIDI messages from your M3 to device to be routed via a Dedicated Korg editor running in your DAW Software and sent to tracks in your host application, letting you use your M3 as though it were a plug-in software instrument. Other applications include sampling into the M3 from your computer, Processing computer-based audio through the M3's effects, and controlling your other plug-in instruments via the M3's many hardware controllers and unique KARMA function.
