K3 additive wave different than K5?

K3 additive wave different than K5?

2004-12-04 by didobrain2000

The K3 has 33 waves plus a white noise generator. Wave number 32 is a 
user programable additive synth wave with 127 user assignable 
harmonics.  I am looking for oppinions on how close the K3 is to 
getting a K3 additive sound?

You can use 32 harmonics out of 1-128th. The level of each 32 harmonics 
can be set to 1-32.
The set of harmonics is computed into a static waveform. You can't modulate 
each harmonics unlike you can with K5.
K3 is rather like an waveform-editable version of KORG DW-8000.

Thank you for the easy to understand answer. Can you provide the same description for the K5 emulation of the Korg DW-8000? Is the DW-8000 additive or fixed wavetable?
