Quasimidi 309 Poster

"I remember seeing them when they first came out. What's interesting is it was also one of the first VAs in the sense that it used modelling technology [along with samples]. Check out this SOS review.

According to VSE, the 309 was produced in 1996. The Clavia Nord Lead, credited as the first VA, came out a year before in 1995 along with the Korg Prophecy also in 1995. The Roland JP8000 followed in 1996 with the 309, and the Yamaha AN1X and Access Virus A in 1997."

  3. I had one. Sounded kind of mushy.
