Ebay Description:
The Korg Wavestation SR is a pressure and velocity sensitive 1U rack (32 voice, 16 channel multitimbral) four oscillator synthesizer, featuring 484 waveforms (16 bit, 4MB, more via card), a 4-stage mix envelope (vector synthesis), dual stereo effects processors (55 effects), stereo and dual individual outputs, wave sequencer (255 steps, 32 preset sequences, 96 editable sequences), effects input, and MIDI. Each oscillator channel features a low pass filter, dual 4-stage envelopes, dual LFOs, and flexible modulation routing. The 105 user editable presets can be saved via MIDI SysEx or memory card (280 presets are not editable).
