I think it's the Kawai, which I have never used.

Someone once told me though that you basically manipulate vertical bars (128
of them) on screen. That's setting up a static harmonic series... I assume
they could then be modulated, or morphed, or something.

I like the idea of additive synthesis. The only "successful" additive synth
I'm aware of is either the Kawai or Kurzweil line (I forget which). I know
these are digital, but how are patches constructed in those? Do you
literally sit down and program each of the 128 oscillators, or is there a
bunched scheme (as you propose) going on?
