And there's the DX200 with a 16-voice polyphonic FM synthesiser.
Which, incidently, sounds remarkably much like the PLG-DX board.

Next thing you know there's a VL200, with lots of controllers for
that hands-on accoustic experience, all packed in a convenient
desktop unit - the design of which wasn't knicked from the Korg
Electribes, honestly.
