Cherry Audio Korg PS-3300

[Guy Rowland]

Is this one of the few remaining big synths that have never been available in VI form? I remember lusting after this in brochures, it was well out of the reach of mortals. Apparently they only made 50.



It has tempo-syncing and effects, but otherwise this is meant to be faithful feature-set wise.

$69, intro price $49.

Actually, unless I'm mistaken, UVI has had their sampled version out for a few years now, the UVS-3200. Got it early on and quite like it. I'll check out the Cherry Audio as I like the stuff I've bought from them so far.

Oh good humble bundle tip, thank you. 81 cents for the PolyMode - I've had that on my radar, but I like the look of the Mercury 4 too.

I'm going to be a pedant snob and say the UVI version is sampled patches so doesn't really count as a VI.

[Luciano Storti]

Yes, I understand. Plus having a load of samples for a synth seems like a bit of a waste of space, but the thing sounds good and the presets are amongst the better ones I'm used to from their catalog. The only other sampled synth of theirs that I enjoy is the Synthox, based on the nearly eponymous Elka Synthex. Now that one I still lust after in hardware form, but alas, too rich for my blood.

And also not a VI.
