Vintage Synth Explorer Forums

So having toyed around with several work stations ive come to the conclusion that the newer the better as far as "synth" option goes, regular piano seems to sound better on the older work stations, older synths seems to have terrible regular piano, so a new workstation can provide both good piano and good synth, the bigger the better also, if you start to shrink workstations into little keyboards then so does the quality of synth...no matter how new.

Yes, buy a Kronos if you want both workstation and synth.

Yes thanks I heard, do they make a portable kronos? what compares to the microKorg?

nope, the portable is the 61 key.

A workstation is a synthesizer. Please write on the blackboard 1000 times

You might be interested in the Korg Microstation, no longer made this was an inexpensive workstation with minikeys. They can be found used for $400-500.

Same engine as a Triton, battery power is possible, etc.

workstations sound cheap
the korg m1 sounds boring

The M1 is twenty-nine years old. Please use a more modern example when judging sound, etc.
