Indeed, the sound of the SH201 is great, but as long as I don't have much money to spend, I'll not buy one!

I second that, it's one of the few Korgs on my wishlist.

Because a synth sounds thin, doesn't mean it can't sound warm and the same if you reverse it.

Sure, warm and thin are two different terms. But the radias doesn't sound warm or thick at all... unless you do 2 sawtooths and detune them, it may sound a bit fat...

Thanx for the review! :P
No commersial can beat a real live impartial experience.
Well...then it seems like the sound demo's of Radias is allmost to correct -clean but thin and cold.

Now I'm not to sure anymore if I can wait until christmas for a SH-201. :roll: 8)

Yeah, that's why I like it very much too. For example when travelling by train, I can just take it with me :D

Sorry for adding to the talk about the Microkorg, but I can only agree on the travelling point. You can bring it everywhere you want to find inspiration. I also like to take my microkorg around in my house, the livingroom for instance.

I'll buy a microKORG for the end of the year, it will be my Christmas Present :lol:
280€ in the secondhand market is not enormous for such a synth I think ;)

Well, it is difficult to buy it now, I don't have money at all, I used all for the JP8000, I only have 10€ remaning :mrgreen:
Maybe at Xmas I will have enough money but I don't think so...
One day, maybe...
