System-8S

Post by Happy »

Would it be a product someday ? Adding a (user loadable/programmable) wave-table, customizable or sample oscillator section alike the PX and/or Korg minilogue then going through the ACB amp and filters. Would be fun. Musikmesse 2019 ? Add more polyphony and call it the System-XS (eXpanded + Sampling)

If they just add aftertouch it'll be a huge improvement.

... and add another octave to the keybed!

Oh yeah, and make the LED colours customisable (green, blue, red, white, orange, etc, etc)

It'd be great to see this synth with one more octave in the keybed, as well as customizable LED colors. I use my S-8 all the time, and if anything, I'd like more user storage slots. I find myself restoring multiple backups to switch between sounds I want access to. A few minor complaints, but this thing ticks all my boxes. I love its sound and its plug-out capability. Best synth I own. By far.
