There are some groups that are big enough and busy enough (YamahaDX, korgpolyex) that would probably be better on their own.

Or maybe even VintageSynth…. why restrict it to Korg? Or would that be too broad and loose focus?

(The reason I’m asking of course is because I have that other list, newmellotrongroup, which is not really Korg related. :) )
