Discussion about the Korg PolySix synthesizer

Hello,

You can probably do very reasonable approximations of the sounds
using the MS2000B's synthesis parameters however, where you may run
into difficulty is patches that use the chorus ensemble. Part of the
personality of some older synths is in the on-board chorus.
Examples of a few of these would be the Elka Synthex, Arp String
Ensemble, etc. Their chorus units, internally consist of two or three
analog delay lines in parallel to create the rich effect they have.
I find that the digital chorus (DSP-based) on most of the newer
synths don't create the same richness that the older on-board analog
chorus devices do.
I haven't heard the Legacy Series P6 plugin yet, so I'm not sure how
well Korg has been able to model that function.

Thanks,

This is precisely where I was having trouble when I started
programming the patches. The P6's ensemble has always been one of my
favorite things about it. At the moment I'm using a DOD Ice Box chorus
pedal on the MS2000B and it sounds great, though noticeably different
than the P6.
