The M1R was a 2U rackmount version of the M1. Series The M1's synth engine remained nearly unchanged until the 's breakthrough in 1995, with minor improvements concerning polyphony, more control sources, and more effects algorithms. The software versions also include waveforms and programs from all expansion cards ever produced by Korg for the M1 (included with the Legacy collection product but offered as an in-app purchase on the iM1 product). The software products add new features such as resonant filters and increased polyphony (no longer limited to 16 notes). The original M1 circuitry is modeled and can be programmed in the same way as the hardware M1 synthesizer, including the importing and exporting of patches between the software and hardware versions of the M1. In May 2015, the M1 was re-released again as a software synthesizer called the iM1, this time for the.

Another important aspect to its success is that it was the first synth to offer a drum machine, sequencer and an effects module in a single easy to carry package. The ability to layer up to 8 different tones (sounds) on top of each other, split them over the keyboard in any combination, and instant realtime access to crucial parameters such as attack, release, filter cutoff, LFO timing, etc., made the M1 easy to use. The resulting sounds were rich, colorful and natural. Korg expanded on the Sample & Synthesis idea, formally implemented on in 1986: instead of classic analog subtractive synthesis where simple analog waveforms (square, triangle, saw, etc.) are produced by tone generators (oscillators) it uses overtone-rich complex digital samples of actual acoustic instruments and classic synths of the past, and applies full subtractive synthesis processing: filters, LFOs, envelope generators, digital effects, etc. The huge success of the M1 lies primarily in the quality of its sounds.

The M1 was so popular that it was produced until the end of 1995, long after its successor T-series (the more advanced T1/T2/T3 workstations) was discontinued.
