"A demonstration of using the 40h as a simple alternate controller. The beauty of the 40h is it can be anything you want it to be - this is just one example."

YouTube via musotalk.
"Der Thor ist ein Alleskönner und es macht echt Spass eigene Sounds von Grund auf zu programmieren... oder man plündert die obulente Soundlibrary. Ausserdem zeige ich den neuen Arpeggiator. Die vollständige Sendung ist online auf www.musotalk.de"

KORG Poly-61

images via this auction.

"The Korg Poly-61 was released in 1982 as the successor to the Polysix. It was somewhat of a step up [not really - the Polysix is more highly regarded] from the Polysix, as it has 2 DCOs for better reliability. It also retained the arpeggiator of the Polysix. It has a very dirty sharp sound much like the Yamaha DX7. This is good if you are into the lo-fi sound of electronica. The Poly-61 can provide cool gritty basses or trippy analog sounds and fx.

Also added is the familiar Korg joystick, which can be used to modulate the VCO or the VCF. However, its filter only has 7 steps of resonance and is not as fat as the Polysix's filter. It also uses the same method of programming the Poly-800 and Yamaha DX-7

Specifications:
Polyphony - 6 Voices Oscillators - DCO1:sawtooth, pulse, and square; DCO-2: sawtooth, square LFO - 1 LFO can modulate the DCOs or the Filter Filter - 1 lowpass filter w/ ADSR Memory - 64 patches VCA - ADSR Keyboard - 61 keys Arpeg/Seq - Arpeggiator with external sync Effects - Chorus Control - MIDI (on later Poly-61M models) Date Produced - 1982 - 1986"

Korg M3 First Person Industrial Revolution

YouTube via rfoshaug. via Nusonica.
"A first-person view of my cover of Jean Michel Jarre's Industrial Revolution Overture. All sounds come from the Korg M3 Music Workstation/Sampler, and only the "machine run" percussion sound is sampled - everything else is programmed sounds using internal waveforms. Everything that looks live is played live, offering an unique first-person look. :-)"
