My dream keyboard

VGCharacters · 11-18-2020, 06:41 AM

My dream keyboard is the Korg Wavestation, which came out around the early 1990s. The sounds on there are really nice and beautiful but mostly ethereal, some of my favorite presets are Glider and Vox Concrete. The only issue though is that it's not cheap, usually selling for about $400, which sucks since I'm not rich, obviously. Ah well, I hope I'll get my hands on it some day. Thanks for listening to my mindless rambling, and have a good rest of your day.

Also, try listening to a sound demo of it and you'll see why I love it so much. You might recognize a few sounds, since it was used all the time for music in the 90s.

I know it's not the same but have you considered getting a midi controller and using some DAW to emulate the sounds of that keyboard (again.....I know this isn't the pure way to do it, but it might be a cheap alternative until you have more money)

On an unrelated note, I'm aware about the Wavestation VST, but the problem is that it only runs on 64 bit systems, and my PC is old and still 32 bit. This would mean that I'd first have to upgrade my computer, then buy the VST and install it.
