I think its *my* job to make the sound at hand musical. Some people swear by “vintage” and others decry it as too backward-looking. How much synth power do ya NEED? The GUI is a squinty thing in use, but that’s a small issue with such a broad instrument.
The Legacy seems to have a slightly cleaner convertor-aroma, but geez, its a $50 Wavestation ($2600 when new) with ALL of the library cards built-in ($100 per).
I’ve owned more hardware from Korg than any other maker and after having played the Legacy Wavestation for a year or so, my verdict: the difference is so subtle, its irrelevant. I think Korg could also do a slightly better version of volume-matching the VST to the hardware, as it seems to vary across patches.) I highly recommend the iPad app version also if you haven’t tried it – the WaveStation is such a great instrument! Single notes sound fantastic on the VST however – in fact they seem to sound a bit clearer than the hardware with better high end and less distortion (of course, if you think clarity is “cold and soulless” and think distortion is “warm and musical” try some filtering and overdrive – probably Korg should add that into into the VST for people who want something that emulates the limitations of the original more closely. Or maybe the attacks are just too clicky/fast on the VST or the envelope generator isn’t emulating the hardware correctly? This is a bug which is almost certainly fixable – it could be the fault of the MIDI implementation, for example, where legato notes are being retriggered inappropriately or at the wrong volume. In the first example, it seems to be adding annoying clicks/transients between each note. Engineers with an exhaustive knowledge of the WAVESTATION made careful adjustments in order to obtain the sound of the original instrument, something that cannot be obtained simply by sampling the original sounds.Ugh, the VST sounds kind of broken. For the hardware, we analyzed the circuit diagrams of the original design, and completely replicated the circuitry in software down to the last detail. The new iWAVESTATION also reproduces in software every detail of each parameter. In the KORG Collection WAVESTATION providing the sounds from all PCM memories of the WAVESTATION. When you create a patch using multiple oscillators, the WAVESTATION lets you use vector synthesis to freely configure how the sound is modulated. The WAVESTATION differs most greatly from other synthesizers in how it lets you freely design and play wave sequences.
A wave sequence cross-fades a variety of waveforms, smoothly connecting these waveforms to let you play them. The WAVESTATION was the first synthesizer that enabled wave sequencing.
