Hello, Korg forum!

For quite some time i have been a huge fan of the Korg 01/w keyboard.


There's a local add for selling a 01 w/fd unit and i am considering getting it.

I wanted to know also if the rack version 01 r/w has all the factory sounds as the keyboard version 01w/fd - and i mean all of them single and multi patches.

If so, i could also consider getting 01 r/w off the the net adds.

Would be very grateful if someone could shed some light on it.

Best regards!

Concerning the sounds, effects implementation, and editing possibilities, they are 100% identical.

Other functions, however, give a clear advantage to the keyboard version: it has a very capable sequencer, and the import and export of the sequences and sounds are done over the floppy disc. Obtaining a USB floppy disc makes the transfer of sounds from the computer to the keyboard a breeze.
