I agree that the K5 can sound like an FM synth; some settings can also make it sound like a PPG Wave. If you leave some gaps in the partials and then use the BP filter, you can almost get that 'gurgling' sound the Waves are known for-- especially if you tie the center frequency to the mod wheel and change it manually while you're playing!
