Re: OT: korg dw8000 output distortion

2004-08-19 by Shayne Cafferata

ok, the sticker's just a sticker. i did a search and discovered that 
enermax makes computer power supplies...
i haven't tried loading the factory sounds, but i'm pretty familiar with 
programming, so i fooled around with parameters and should've gotten 
something, but the sound coming out was pretty much the same bucket of 
mud for every patch. i'll be opening it up this weekend. i really hope i 
can get this baby going. i've wanted something with an arpeggiator for a 
long time. and it'll be a great companion for my ex800. speaking of 
gibberish, sometimes dying batteries can produce very cool bizarre 
sounds. i think this is the more the case with digital synths, but i 
wonder if it occurs with certain analogs as well?
thanks for the feedback,
shayne
