Subject: Re: [DW8000] Digest Number 107

From: Michael D McDermott <studiox22@...>

The one mod for the DW8000 I know of and have used for years was called Turbo 8000 and was made by a company named Angel City Audio. This person wrote patch librarys
for the DW and their ad appears in the classifieds of old Keyboard Magazine's after 85'.
The mod enabled the DW to have splits and layers of four voices each. So you could have 4 different DWGS waveforms in a layer with a slight limitation of the selection of the waves available. I have never heard of anyone who burned an alternative waveform set for the DW. The Turbo 8000 also gave you 8 banks of the 64 patches , very convienient , and more MIDI options , such as the ability to send & receive on 2 different channels.
It was a simple install procedure , just plug in a chip inside the dw box. It was about $200.   at the time. Maybe on Ebay.     I still love my DW8000 & DW6000.
