KORG WAVESTATION SR [1998 – 2000]

I eventually sold this one, but I remember it had a few very nice sounds, and I particularly liked the reverb, which sounded very warm and “distantly present”. My main problem with this was simply that it was a pain to program, due to the 2-line display and what felt like a deep menu hierarchy, so I never really got past the presets, which is a crying shame, as I am sure there were some interesting possibilities. I also never figured out why the effects settings kept changing even though I didn’t want them to. I regret selling it, and it is likely I will get another one at some point. I have now also invested in Sound Diver, which should make the programming much easier (or, in this case, possible). Another possibility is that, as Korg has released it as a soft synth, I might go for that one instead.
