  1. What a magnificent sound. I would love to see Korg rereleasing these kind of «old» machines. Sound awesome.

  2. One of the first analogs I played with over 30 years ago..it’s limited, but it has a really unique character and some great sounds. I’ve always wanted to get one but the last time it was in Craigslist locally it was $1800…

  3. nice synth i had one in the 90’s – …the 90’s … -everything sounds better with RAT distortion

    also sounds really nice thru the FX of the KORG WAVESTATION A/D

  4. Nice demo – amazing what you can get out of a good monosynth + delay + reverb.
    Nice basic sawtooth sound, high-pass filter, and arpeggiator too.

  5. The sounds aren’t that different than the Korg 800DV, the controls and sequencing sounds VERY different however. While some controls from the Korg 800DV might be missed, the additional abilities would keep me happy for a long time…..so I guess I had better start looking for one to play with my Univox MaxiKorg K3 (Korg 800DV).
