A very interesting read indeed!

That was awesome. Thanks a lot.

Really ? I thought that was only the Poly 800.

But they do so i don't quite see what the problem is ?

And what's so unconventional about the d50s filter ? Other than you can only use it on synth waveforms which is one of the biggest mysteries in synthland. Why on earth is that ? Because it isn't a true filter, which takes an input signal and "filters" it (if it was, then it could work on the PCM wa...

AFAIK resonance needed more DSP power than was readily available in synths back then. My 01/W didn't have resonant filters either. I think the first digital Korg to have resonant filters was the Prodigy or Trinity or something like that. The Roland D-50 has resonance, but its implementation of a "f...

It actually has a resonant filter in the FX section. I remember using it for a bass sound. It can even be modulated. Obviously it'll only work monophonically. I agree that was the big thing missing.

Funny because i can't imagine it'll save much dsp power so i'm not sure why they omitted it.

I remember now that the 3100 never sounded that fat because of the phase relationships between the octaves due to the dividing. Still it's my favorite analog poly ever. And i 've had quite a few including the OB-X and the Prophet 5. Did'nt care at all for the OB-X. The Prophet 5 was quite nice but ...

The PS series uses divide down oscillator so the 3100 has 12 of them and the 3300 has 36 of them. Otherwise it's correct.

The Big Grp Synthesizer A8

Also, he sold a massive amount of stuff on ebay UK... There was quite a buzz on some UK forums for a while... Very little of his gear was shipped over to the US. The stuff he sold was mostly c**p like Behringer compressors and whatnot. The only thing cool on that list was the Fairlight and it was w...

Any takes for a live setup?! "Insert cool Synthi 100 action here" Explain this to an Ebay retardo like myself (never used it, don't have an account) The buy it now price is $68,661.00 and according to that picture the highest bid is exactly that. But that can't be can it 'cause then it would have a...
