and single cycle waves are the way to go with theses samplers the k3 k5 k5000 ppg dss1 and the fz1 range all have additive sin synthesis

but the neat trick on both the dss1 and the fz range is that you can link mix the additive waves to create a moving wavetable

a bit like the emax spectral synth generation

  yes you can fit scsi its the card fitted to the fz20

  but you need a copy of the scsi floppy access software

  and charlie still needs to get a good working floppy drive

  the floppy emulator is cheaper than a replacement drive

  I think the FZ1/10m/20m is worth the effort the synth section sounds 
  superb,my friend used to use that all the time,the only other synth/ 
  sampler I have used which had the a similar function was the Korg 
  DSS-1 (just usiing a slider) although there are a few programs for the 
  Atari which allow you to draw a waveform as does the Roland samplers 
  and the Fairlight of course.
  I think a PPG and possibly the Kawai K5 could do additive drawing 
  using a slider too.
  I know the FZ10m could be fitted with scsi because I saw one in a 
  studio in Islington London and I asked the engineer if I could have a 
  look around the back because he was loading sounds to it from a Jaz 
  drive.
