KORG WAVESTATION SR MIDI SYNTHESIZER RACK MODULE in Arlington, Texas For Sale

The Wavestation SR is a repackaged Wavestation designed to provide you with all the Wavestation sounds you could ever ask for in a more compact and less expensive MIDI Module. It is a 1-unit rackmount tone module that has all the raw power and sounds of the famous WavestationEX and A/D synths!
Excellent condition, includes the Korg Wavestation SR, power cord, Original Korg Manuals (Reference Guide, Performance Notes, Player's Guide).

The SR maintains the same advanced Vector Synthesis and Wave Sequencing synthesis method from a 4MB ROM card. While managing to increase the MIDI mixing and 16 part MIDI
multitimbrality and shrinking the massive synth no sound nor edit parameter was sacrificed! Every parameter can still be tweaked, for a compact, portable and richly multitimbral synthesizer module.
Included among its vast array of amazing synthesizer sounds is 1 drum kit with 30 sounds making the SR an ideal centerpiece for any MIDI studio. Wavestations are used by Orbital, The Future Sound of London and Gary Numan.
The last hardware implementation of the Wavestation was a 1-unit rackmount model. It lacked the A/D inputs of its predecessor, the screen was downsized to a character-based 16×2 LCD, and most buttons, function keys, and the joystick disappeared. Marketed as a preset module, it featured eight ROM preset banks with Patches and Performances previously sold on expansion cards from Korg and Sound Source Unlimited, Inc. Programming is best done with an external MIDI editor, although all parameters can be edited from the panel.
The Wavestation for the preset-playing masses, coming in 1U rackmount form with styling derived from the more common Korg 0-series rack boxes. The patcherati will appreciate the provision of eight banks of ROM performances (rather than the one found on the keyboard and AD), although performances and patches could also be programmed to make use of the eight banks of wave sequences. (All the SR data structures can refer freely across all eleven banks.)
There are some general enhancements to the MIDI control specification, such as pan response, although the SR is backwards-compatible with earlier units via a rather sophisticated two-level sys-ex format.
There is a 16 by 2 character LCD for programming and the vector joystick of the A/D is also absent. The user interface is actually quite respectable, but the fact remains that the Wavestation voice architecture is deeply hierarchical and does not easily lend itself to periscope programming, although every parameter is accessible.
The SR is a good deal if you're after 550 presets. It's also a compact, fully-fledged Wavestation if you have a decent computer-based editor or are happy with the front panel. The manual on its own is well structured and even pictures the effects algorithms, making it a useful document for owners of the other Wavestations.
