"Nice sounding retro sampler / synth keyboard from the mid / late 80s - the one with the analogue filters. Paul Nagle wrote a funny but also accurate retro about it in 1997: https://www.soundonsound.com/reviews/korg-dss1 . Big and heavy, but good-sounding, with lots of extra treats in store for people who go looking for them. The weak link was usually the disk drive - but this has been solved on this example with an HxC drive, with the display helpfully in the wide open spaces above where the disk drive used to be. Packing 24GBP for a custom carton - to include a UK or Euro mains lead (with the pesky 2-pin rectangular shape). The DSS-1 has been stored in a very nice flightcase - see next lot - but we won't courier it in the case."
