>Korg DSM-1 is actually the rack model of the DSS-1 actually. This >according to >vintagesynth.com It's actually not (vintagesynth.com isn't really the best for accuracy sometimes). The DSM-1 has 16 single-oscillator voices (vs. 8 dual-oscillator voices in the DSS-1), non-resonant digital filters, no delays, no oscillator sync. Apparently it has marginally better waveform synthesis capabilities, and a bunch of independent outputs, a better disk drive, and more RAM, but apart from that it's missing everything that makes the DSS-1 interesting. It's more like a proto-M1 with the ability to sample, or in other words, a totally uninteresting dinosaur sampler. The Casio FZ-1, Ensoniq EPS, Emu Emax II, etc. (probably Yamaha TX16w as well) all eclipse it.
