4/1/2024 0 Comments Korg poly 800 analog synthLike a monophonic synthesizer, the filter was switchable between single or multiple modes. It featured one analog resonant low-pass VCF with 24 dB/oct which was shared for all voices. It could be switched into double mode which stacks two DCOs for a fuller sound, but reduces the polyphony to 4 voices. It had 8-voice polyphony ( paraphony) with one DCO per voice. Though the Poly-800 had MIDI, it did not feature MIDI SysEx functionality (except EX800 - the expander-version or by modding the Poly800 with additionally selectable EX-firmware-ROM), and patches had to be backed up to cassette tape. It featured a 49 key non-velocity sensitive keyboard, two buttons for data entry, and a joystick controller, which could modulate the DCO pitch or the VCF. Its initial list price of $795 made it the first fully programmable synthesizer that sold for less than $1000. The Korg Poly-800 is a synthesizer released by Korg in 1983.
