I want to sell my microKORG and get a few extra bucks for it.

But I can’t.

You see, as I’ve suspected for ages, and what I’ve discovered today, the microKORG has some weird-ass internal signal routing. I have a patch, for example, that I made ages ago (when I first got the mk) that sounds like the VCS3 lead in Led Zeppelin’s In The Light. Today, I tried to replicate this patch on my Ion, a synth with very straightforward and documented signal routing. The patch I have calls for osc1 and osc2 to both be triangle waves, with no modulation between them (no ring/sync), and one of them tuned an octave down. But I noticed that when I have two triangle oscillators, mixed the exact same way they are on the mk, the ion makes them sound much different (and arguably, the way they should sound judging from the parameters). However, trying to isolate either oscillator on the microKORG produces some, well, fucked-up results. Listen to the podcast to hear it all.
