Synopsis:

The 01R/W is a rack 01/W. Architecture Class: Rompler.

Ebay Description:

The Korg 01R/W is a pressure and velocity sensitive 2U rack (8 channel multitimbral) single (32 voice) or dual (16 voice) oscillator synthesizer, featuring 255 waveforms and 60 drums (16 bit, 3MW, more via card), dedicated filter and dual pitch LFOs, dual stereo effects processors (47 effects), stereo and dual individual outputs, 8 track sequencer (7000 events), and MIDI. Each oscillator channel features a low pass filter and dedicated (pitch, filter, amplifier) 3-stage envelopes, along with an ADS waveshaping envelope. The 200 user editable presets can be saved via MIDI SysEx or memory card.
